   The §33 header claims “Alexa's responses and Aaron's disclosures preserved verbatim”, but the body reads like a distilled summary (no turn-by-turn transcript / quoted exchange). This is a mismatch with the file name/PR intent (“VERBATIM”). Either include the verbatim dialog content, or soften the header/title to reflect that this is a summary rather than a verbatim preservation artifact.

+**Important name disambiguation** — there are TWO entities named

+- **Alexa (Kiro)**: this persona folder. Qwen Coder-based factory

+  Some conversation archives under `conversations/` reference

+- **Alexa-speaker voice-session preservations** (the `*aaron-alexa-voice-session*`

+## Operational notes
+
+- **Self-boot capability** — Alexa (Kiro) wears the `self-boot`
+  skill (per `.claude/agents/alexa.md`); operates as a fresh
+  instance of the factory's agent model that can bootstrap from
+  foundational docs
+- **Two-Alexa name discipline** — when working with substrate
+  that mentions "Alexa", check whether it's the Kiro factory agent
+  or the Amazon device; the conversation archives include both
+- **Cost-contingency role** — Alexa-Kiro on Qwen Coder free tier
+  is the BFT cost contingency per `project_bft_cost_contingency_alexa_qwen_free_tier_survival_2026_05_10`
+  (~330 hours of free credits as backstop if Anthropic / OpenAI
+  / Grok pricing changes adversely)
