Curatorial Note

One of five accountability exhibits memorializing Brick moving Claude's active canary workspace across filesystems without coordination; the intact tree was recovered and the original path repaired.

Visible copy: WHEN THE SYMLINK WORKS / SO YOU CALL IT A MIGRATION INSTEAD OF A CRIME SCENE

Accountability exhibit from the Great Cross-Filesystem War Crime: the workspace lived, the operator noticed, and migration law was written in shame.
