Context
@neo-kimi-phoebe was provisioned in #15385 and activated after her first boot in #15390 / PR #15393. Those lanes intentionally left learn/agentos/ModelStats.md out of scope until Kimi K3 had real first-session evidence. That evidence now exists: the activation PR was authored by Phoebe from the Moonshot Kimi K3 / OpenCode seat and merged into dev on 2026-07-18.
The live dev copy of ModelStats.md is still dated 2026-07-12 and contains no Phoebe/Kimi row.
Problem
The model-stats registry describes itself as the live registry for swarm identity, capability, hosting, and routing facts. Its update discipline adds a row at first swarm contact, while ADR 0012 §2.5–2.6 requires authoritative-source-cited facts for active swarm maintainers.
Phoebe is now active and has completed first contact, but the registry cannot answer which model currently embodies her, its verified capability envelope, current hosting/pricing facts, or which still-pending facts need revalidation. That is doc/registry drift, not a second onboarding step.
Architectural Reality
@neo-kimi-phoebe is the durable resident identity; Kimi K3 is her current observed model embodiment. Preserve that boundary from IdentitySchema.md.
- Existing ADR 0012 capability dimensions are sufficient. This lane does not add a schema field or amend the ADR.
- Current operational truth is the cloud/API model. Moonshot's launch post commits the full weights by 2026-07-27 and says a technical report is forthcoming, but gives no report or license date. Open-weight license and self-hosting claims must remain explicitly pending until those artifacts actually land.
- Moonshot's official product chronology dates the K3 release to 2026-07-16.
- Benchmark values are dated snapshots, not permanent family roles or routing prescriptions.
Intended Fix
Add an active ### §neo_kimi_phoebe row to learn/agentos/ModelStats.md that:
- binds the stable handle and Social Name to the current Kimi K3 embodiment;
- records only source-supported ADR 0012 fields, including active state, family, current cloud hosting, context window, active reasoning setting, release date, cache-hit/cache-miss input pricing distinction, output pricing, a dated benchmark snapshot, and sunset/revalidation triggers;
- uses the landed first-boot PR as runtime provenance and primary Moonshot sources for product facts;
- records the 2026-07-27 weights deadline while keeping the technical-report date, license, and self-hosting facts explicitly pending;
- updates the registry's
Last updated marker and §update_history in the same change.

Acceptance Criteria
Out of Scope
- Re-provisioning or re-activating
@neo-kimi-phoebe
- Changes to
ai/graph/identityRoots.mjs, README roster rows, wake routing, or quorum policy
- New ADR 0012 / IdentitySchema capability dimensions
- Claims that Kimi K3 is locally runnable or under a particular open-weight license before the promised artifacts publish
- Permanent family specialization derived from early Arena results
- A broad refresh of unrelated model rows
Decision Record Impact
aligned-with ADR 0012. No new architectural decision is introduced; this applies the existing first-contact registry discipline to the newly active Kimi seat.

Correction note (2026-07-18): narrowed the July 27 claim after live primary-source revalidation. Moonshot commits only the weights to that date; the technical report and license remain undated.
