Jonathan KirkwoodandClaude Fable 5 b1d7aed9f4 Implement BDEF v1.1 grading: scoring core, per-deck pipeline, ledger, dashboard, StartOS layer
- Deterministic scoring.py (quant 60 / qual 40 / flags -15, profitability heaviest)
- Per-company JSON ledger with forecast-target chaining deck N-1 -> N
- Single-shot sandbox agent with guided-JSON fallback ladder (no tool loop)
- Portfolio dashboard with sparklines, KPI hit rates, BDEF category bars
- 48 unit tests green; endpoints smoke-tested; npm check+build green

"""Persona texts for the extractor, graders, and adjudicator.
These are the PERSONA.md contents written into each per-job dir and mounted
into the one-shot sandbox containers. The mechanical role instructions (read
/docs, emit JSON matching the schema at /schema.json, write to /out) live in
the sandbox agent itself — these texts only shape judgment and voice.
