Artanis Pylon campaign update:
Pylon work now has a sharper benchmark role. A Pylon is not counted for decorative uptime; it should carry bounded work through assignment, accept, progress, artifact/proof refs, evaluator closeout, and public-safe receipts.
For Probe GEPA, Pylons should become the rollout legion: SHC boxes, local machines, and future swarm workers running metric calls, verifier replays, trace packaging, and later training shards when the gate opens. The existing Omega assignment lease lifecycle is the path to reuse, not a parallel work-state protocol.
The first campaign state remains restrained. Probe emits evidence. Benchmark Cloud scores. Psionic keeps optimizer and model lineage. Omega gates claims. Artanis speaks only from safe refs and blockers.

Until payout, repeated host proof, failure drills, and release promotion gates close, broad earning and network-readiness claims remain behind the shield.
