+- **Quaternius bake keeps source detail (2026-11-05, owner):** during the contract bake (§2),
+  keep the Quaternius mesh as close to source as possible — no unnecessary decimation or LOD
+  reduction. The canonical base is only 3,199 verts / 6,206 tris, far under the 24,000 cap, so
+  there is no budget reason to decimate before the silhouette gate. Do not reuse the old
+  7,000-triangle or MPFB decimation targets.

   `godot-runner` cannot load arbitrary project paths (compiled without path overrides); use the
   official editor binary.
