This entry is directly defined in the archetype registry source list.

reform branding, superficial repair, endless procedural delay.
5. Registry Mapping
Source depth: direct
6. Template Expansion Notes
The full ARCHETYPE-TEMPLATE.md expansion should add:
- principle basis and Sigma boundaries
- interface stack profile
- operator and coupling profiles
- scaling risks
- diagnostics
- restoration arc
- AI-mediated use
- symbolic / teaching translation
Entry Closure
Reformer maps a coherent agency pattern in the Threshold / Transition family and must remain audit-bound rather than identity-bound.
