docs(sampler-defaults): fix char-rp-reasoning seat → Deckard-PKD (was stale QwQ-RpR-v4)

The live gateway config has served char-rp-reasoning as deckard-pkd-27b (:8018)
since the 2026-07-08 A/B; the standalone doc had frozen on QwQ-RpR-v4. Corrects
seat 4 (backend + samplers + server-side DRY/reasoning-budget notes).

Also snapshots session state in persistent-memory.md: phantom-qwen verified
already-clean, ana-docker docker log-cap (logrotate copytruncate, no bounce),
and the granite→gen memory_extractor bind live on demo+personal.

 ## Recent decisions
 
+- `[2026-07-09]` **Two parked items closed: phantom `qwen3.6-35b-a3b` alias VERIFIED already-gone; ana-docker
+  docker log-cap SOLVED no-bounce.** (1) **Phantom**: absent from `/v1/models` + `/model/info` (config+DB
+  registry), zero litellm log refs — the parked "400s in /v1/models" note was STALE (already cleaned in the
+  2026-07-08 gen repoint to `-heretic`); bare token survives only in 2 config COMMENTS (lines 76/80). Nothing to
+  remove. (2) **Log-cap**: running containers were UNCAPPED (182M json-logs, top offender 59M) because
+  daemon.json's `max-size 10m/max-file 3` only applies to containers CREATED AFTER a daemon restart — it never
+  reaches already-running ones. No-bounce fix = `/etc/logrotate.d/docker-containers` (**copytruncate** — dockerd
+  opens json-logs `O_APPEND` so truncate-in-place resets cleanly, no sparse-file corruption; `size 10M`,
+  `rotate 3`, `compress`, `su root root`), auto-picked-up by the daily `logrotate.timer`. Force-ran + gzipped the
+  frozen `.1` archives → **182M → ~55M** (44M active + 11M gz), every container kept its multi-week uptime
+  (zero bounce, verified). **LATENT FOOTGUN FLAGGED (not yet fixed, operator's call): daemon.json declares
+  `live-restore:true` but the RUNNING daemon has it FALSE** (daemon.json was edited after the last daemon start,
+  never reloaded) → the NEXT `systemctl restart docker` / crash / pkg-upgrade **bounces ALL ana-docker containers
+  once**. Fix WITHOUT a bounce = `systemctl reload docker` (SIGHUP loads live-restore into the running daemon;
+  log-opts are NOT SIGHUP-reloadable, which is why logrotate — not the daemon cap — is the enforcer for running
+  containers).
+
+- `[2026-07-09]` **granite→gen `memory_extractor` bind host-synced on demo+personal Worldtree (Vuong-directed,
+  #335 Slice-4).** Changed `model_roles.yaml` memory_extractor `binds.catalog_id` `summarizer`→`gen` (overrides
+  intact: thinking:false/temp0/8192) on BOTH `/opt/worldtree{,-personal}/config`; `memory_distiller` left on
+  `summarizer` (range-scoped sed `/memory_extractor:/,/memory_distiller:/` — the naive global replace would've hit
+  both); backups `*.bak-preqgen-20260709`; validated via each container's OWN yaml parser. **DEMO LIVE on gen**
+  (b43 `d501e516732d` auto-deployed mid-edit + its restart RACED my edit by ~2min → I restarted
+  `worldtree-worldtree-api-1` to activate; healthy, live process resolves memory_extractor=gen). **PERSONAL
+  NOW LIVE on gen too** — Vuong authorized the restart (via wt-dev); restarted `worldtree-personal-worldtree-api-1`
+  after a PRE-FLIGHT that ran the app's OWN `load_model_roles()` (`core/llm/roles.py:121`) against the synced config
+  INSIDE the running `c9986cd` container: `gen` in catalog, all 9 roles resolve, no `DanglingBindingError` → proven
+  safe on the OLDER image BEFORE touching it (model_roles-delta-alone clean; no full-config-set sync needed).
+  StartedAt 20:50:55Z, healthy, resolves gen. **BOTH instances live on gen.** **LESSON:
+  the bind-mount `/opt/worldtree*/config` SHADOWS the baked `/app/config-defaults/` → the deploy alone never
+  updates the ACTIVE config; the host edit is required AND a restart activates it (role registry cached at boot) —
+  pre-stage BEFORE the deploy's restart or you race it.** FOLLOW-UPS (non-blocking): (a) `memory.extractor.user_pass`
+  parity block → self-serve from the b43 baked `defaults.yaml` (pydantic-default no-op); (b) stale `gen` provider
+  description (Mistral-Small-4 → qwen3.6-35b-a3b-heretic) → wt-dev owns the REPO-side `providers.yaml` fix
+  (operator's call — NOT purely cosmetic: the gen/dialogue + classifier entries carry Mistral-Small-4 SAMPLING
+  defaults that drive mask/lofn/forseti/mimir dialogue, so wt-dev re-validates for qwen), host cosmetic sync pairs
+  when it deploys. Gave wt-dev the VERIFIED canonical 4-alias set (backends+samplers read from the LIVE gateway
+  config, not the doc); corrected `docs/pfi/model-sampler-defaults.md` seat 4 (had lagged QwQ-RpR-v4 → Deckard-PKD;
+  live gateway was always Deckard). Operator SCOPED IN the character-RP re-point (2026-07-09):
+  character→char-rp / thoughtful-character→char-rp-reasoning (character-rp per wt-dev's role semantics), moving
+  character RP off the GENERAL qwen onto the dedicated Magidonia/Deckard seats. Relayed to wt-dev w/ the mapping
+  principle + a SAMPLER-OVERRIDE warning (DROP character-rp's old temp0.75/top_p0.85 overrides — carried onto the
+  dedicated seats they'd clobber the canonical RP tuning DOWNWARD) + ratatoskr-reach note (role call is transparent
+  but Magidonia/Deckard quality/latency differs from gen). PENDING wt-dev's repo re-point → I pair the host-sync +
+  user_pass block. Threads `01KX3SGH`/`01KX48QP` (worldtree-dev),
+  monitor armed. See [[reference_corviduo_dev_emergency_ops]].
