kvb-check-efficiency measures a change against its base: tokens.py counts skill text tokens and listing words, measure.py runs one command in a base worktree and the working tree (one run per side, the mean of five over 100, an estimate marked ~ when other processes load the CPU). kvb-check-speed reads wall time from the same run and is not relevant for skills. kvb-check-score prints fix, break, efficiency, speed and the product score with emojis plus a gate line: below 90/5 it reports, over 100 it requires asking the operator before the commit.
Every skill that reported confidence and break risk now shows the score block; the 90/5 bar adds efficiency and speed at most 100. Commit blocks and the commit call's approval prompt name worktree, branch, diff stat and the score values, also for merges. 24 descriptions were shortened to keep the skill listing within its budget.

kvb-org-radio is the default channel to other agents: broadcast and direct reach the receiver on its next prompt, security and pan-pan mid-turn through a PostToolBatch hook, and only mayday or direct --wake wake a session, through the receiver's own asyncRewake Stop hook (a SendMessage fallback is printed for sessions without a listener). It keeps the news.jsonl store and lock, so news.py stays a forwarding shim. A mayday holds radio silence for two hours: watch.py blocks new heavy commands and the operator gets a desktop notice. hotfix.py announces merged hotfixes as security items.
kvb-org-queue grants heavy jobs by rule instead of chair messages: queue.py hold waits under a flock with disk reservation, hotfix-first and register rank order, slot limits, stage and silence checks, then runs the command and releases. Every job is recorded; history.py learns disk need per command and slot limits per kind (p90, five runs), watch.py mirrors the history to ~/.local/state. enable-plugins.js registers the new hooks behind a file check so a missing script never blocks.

The Maintainer messaged every agent about every hotfix, waking each for a full turn. Hotfixes are now register rows hotfix/<slug> (repository identity by git common dir and normalized origin URL, branch, sha, PR, failing-line signature, targets, stage), written with hotfix.py add/update and queried only when an agent acts, never by cron: pending lists merged hotfixes missing from HEAD (filtered by targets) and open ones; match finds hotfixes whose signature fits a failing line, evaluated in one worker under a shared deadline; void tells gate.py run, before every target, when a merged hotfix missing from HEAD makes the rest of the run worthless (exit 3), the operator's one exception to never cutting a job short; sync fetches first, then under the worktree locks merges origin/<default> and every base up the funnel chain recorded with rasci.py set --base, refusing a detached or foreign branch, a diverged base or a busy worktree, aborting cleanly on a conflict.
gate.py gains hold, which runs any heavy command, deploys included, under the worktree lock, forwards signals, returns the command's code and exits 75 when busy; run holds the same lock and takes the sync lock shared. kvb-check-gate, kvb-ci-triage, kvb-org-organize (Peer protocol, capacity), kvb-org-coordinate and kvb-org-split follow; rasci gaps, wsjf and artifacts skip hotfix and operator rows. Three independent skeptic rounds found 34 defects (three of them high), all fixed with tests; negative controls fail against the earlier code.
