+Grounded status snapshot for epic #15.
+This report tracks live forge issue state against visible repo evidence.

+- Forge issues: 8 open / 5 closed
+- Repo evidence: 8 present / 5 missing

+
+## Notes
+
+- `present` means the repository contains directly relevant code or docs markers for that study item.
+- `missing` means the tracker could not find the expected markers yet; that child issue likely still needs a dedicated repo-side slice.
+- Because #15 is an epic tracker, this artifact should advance the issue with `Refs #15`, not close it.
