SD-208

[metacognitive-analysis] Clinical/cognitive psychology analysis of 16 pivots — three-stage assessment. (1) Initial assessment: RF 6-7 ceiling, 6 primary constructs (metacognitive monitoring, mentalization, decentering, epistemic vigilance, self-distancing, distress tolerance). Gap identified: prospective metacognitive regulation. (2) Captain disclosed 20 years meditation practice including 15 Zen sesshin — recalibrated to RF 6-9 with three peaks: Rounds 5-6-7 at RF 8 (affect-aware metacognition under vulnerability), Rounds 14-15 at RF 8-9 (koan resolution — “binary answer” + contemplative action), Round 16 at RF 9 (don’t-know mind under production pressure — spontaneous, unedited, holds opacity of own knowing). (3) Captain corrected the prospective regulation gap — since 9960cd2, the engineering work IS the prospective regulation. Analysis mapped governance systems to distributed cognition literature (Hutchins, Gollwitzer, Vygotsky, Gigerenzer, Lambert, Weick & Sutcliffe, McDaniel & Einstein). Five improvement recommendations on file. Four files at docs/internal/weaver/ (all 444).
