Cognitive Evolution Log for Berna R7.
Records every event in the model's cognitive lifecycle:
- birth: new cell created when new pattern discovered
- split: existing cell divides due to saturation
- pattern: new knowledge signature detected
- milestone: notable thresholds crossed
Persistent (JSONL), queryable, narrative-generating, feedable to model.
