Done.

- **Hermes email sent** (ID: `19e9d05e501460d2`) -- animation timing prototype task: `soft_smile` and `judging_unamused` end-to-end cycles with entry curves, anticipation beats, hold durations, and return. These two anchor the timing for everything else. Scope-locked, reply to Jun's Gmail.
- **Jun briefed on Telegram** -- overnight summary + today's two tracks, warm close.

[2026-06-07T09:00:01-0400] morning kickoff starting
Done. Both delivered:

- **Hermes** has today's animation task: implement entry/exit easing (ease-in/out cubic), ~1-2 frame anticipation, eye/mouth sync with eyes leading ~33ms, and hold timing -- scoped to 3 expressions (soft_smile, focused, skeptical), one gateable prototype first with a video clip showing the cycle.

- **Jun** has his morning brief in @theCounsel3 -- overnight state, two open items (blink + model-swap) flagged for his triage, audio track waiting on his timing.

Done. Both delivered.

**Hermes email** (`GATE SPEC + next: corrected happy proof, then sad`): confirms and extends the 09:02 fix direction -- no held-rest, direct emotion-to-living-idle, with a concrete per-frame YAVG gate (< 0.5 at the join, scrub test, eye-test). Named sad as the next expression after happy is verified. Told him to hold for Jun approval before building more.

**Jun's Telegram brief**: morning, warm, one line on where Hermes landed (happy MIL built + spliced, Jun caught the real problem), the fix in motion, two tracks for today (voice with Jun live, animation lane with Hermes async).
