From e73f77abb5ad470caaef5b5491ddb8cec9bd5971 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Hallmon Date: Sun, 4 Oct 2026 13:35:25 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] docs: record that the round 6 rule was kept CHANGELOG said the rule was not kept; the revert was dropped before merge, so the rule is in SKILL.md. Add it under Changed and note the decision in the round 6 judgments and evals README.
