Every author block and the authorship standard said Los Angeles; Hanzo has
been in San Francisco since at least 2016. The five catalogue PDFs whose
sources changed are rebuilt so papers.hanzo.ai says so too.

zeekayandHanzo Dev 1bc3b1931b paper: run-time plugin decomposition of the unified cloud binary
Sequel to HIP-0106. The unified binary removed the mesh and the
container-per-service tax, and accidentally bought a shared link: editing one
line in one of 107 applications costs the same as editing all of them.

Measured, warm, same tree and machine:

  monolith  4,347 pkgs   20.23 s   5.6  GB   497.1 MB
  plugin      646 pkgs    2.11 s   0.63 GB    43.3 MB
  host        313 pkgs    0.65 s   0.31 GB    25.4 MB

A one-app rebuild is 9.6x faster and takes 8.9x less memory, and the host does
not rebuild at all. The monolith's 19.49 s no-op rebuild is the proof that the
cost was never in the edited code.

Also reports the larger finding: one outward-only import put 1,154 packages —
every k8s, aws, grpc and container SDK — beneath all 107 applications. Inverting
it and one Kubernetes client took the shared floor from 1,798 to 644.

States the limits honestly: 83 cross-app import edges remain, several
process-global couplings would break silently rather than loudly across a
process boundary, and the numbers are warm-cache single-machine developer-loop
figures, not CI throughput.
