feat: additional protection from agent modifying soul front matter#74
Conversation
The soul-writing guidelines (shared by distill and instill) told the agent *where* to place entries but never explicitly said "don't touch the frontmatter." A sub-agent could theoretically corrupt soul_version, epoch fields, or last_distilled — especially if session transcripts happen to discuss those values. Add a Frontmatter rule to SOUL_WRITING_GUIDELINES that forbids editing the YAML front matter block, complementing the existing field-specific last_distilled prohibition in SKILL_DISTILL.
