llm_society: the composed society at LLM scale (C3) — loop, tests, smoke green

Browse source 
E11 re-instantiated in a population of LoRA agents, closing the paper's stated
gap before submission (GG: a weeks-scale experiment a reviewer would demand).
One grounding knob in the evaluation channel (g*verifier + (1-g)*conformity,
exactly E11); inheritance is identical in all arms and deliberately ungrounded
(children distilled from their source's own answers - self-consumption made
literal). Directed sex = complementary pairing + Dirichlet offspring screened
on the arm's own signal (the verifier never enters the no_grounding loop);
QD selection on verifier-free behavioural distance; terminal-degeneration
fallback copies the parent instead of crashing a sweep. Pure operators
unit-tested (155 green); smoke run end-to-end on the local A4000 already
shows the self-consumption signature (conformity up, diversity down in one
generation). Design, falsifiers, cost table: tasks/workorder-llm-society.md.
