SKILL.md-supplied paths used as failsafe. `bootstrap.md` and `working-state.md` not read this run; substrate loaded via context. **Cadence note**: Weekly cadence continues (07-06, 07-14, 07-21, 07-28, 08-03, 08-10). Sequential numbering C15. **MCP auth note**: seven marketing/finance MCP servers surface re-auth prompts (ms365, ahrefs, amplitude, canva, klaviyo, notion; figma still connecting). None relevant to this tracker; flagged for Velastra. **C14 baseline retrospective correction**: two Frame-2 signals present in the world before C14 window closed were **missed by C14**: (i) **Vermont H.816 / Act 156** signed by Gov. Scott 2026-06-17 (6th state in the therapy cluster; Consumer Protection Act enforcement); (ii) **Florida AG v. OpenAI + Altman** filed 2026-06-01/02 (first state-AG suit against OpenAI on **product-design liability**; distinct from KY/PA Character.AI suits). Both retroactively integrated in C15 and re-score Frame 2 upward. --- AI is not a stable regulatory category. Frame Contest Tracker follows which framing coalition wins the right to define it. Bucket-assignment fights — who gets classified into which regulatory frame — determine outcomes more than any individual law or rule. **C15 read**: The Frame-4 template-resistance null that anchored the past three cycles **partially BROKE on Aug 3** when Gov. Abbott (TX) ordered PUCT + ERCOT to freeze new data-center interconnections pending a comprehensive audit — governor-tier action, from a Republican state, at ERCOT scale (474 GW of pending interconnection requests, ~90% data centers). Not a Hochul-symmetric moratorium EO — it is an audit-pause routed through utility-regulator infrastructure — but it is the first governor-tier data-center pause outside NY and it lands **on the same day C14 closed**, which is why it did not surface in C14 scoring.

The **White House deadline lapsed** without any public Federal Register notice, NIST publication, or OSTP statement — the \"voluntary framework\" is not yet published even as the \"near-deal\" reporting circulates. The **EU deadline activated cleanly** — Chapter V enforcement powers (documentation requests, evaluations, corrective-measures orders, fines up to 3% global turnover / €15M) are live as of 02 Aug 2026.
