refactor(data): migrate 9 core binary pairs to single stars

Gate builders don't place two horizon stations in one star system.
Binary pairs (A/B components of same physical star) split to
independent stars. Each "move" system keeps its connections and
content, only the host star changes.

Migrations:
- GJ 559A (Rigil Kentaurus) -> GJ 768 (Altair) — rewritten for new star
- GJ 725A (Renaissance) -> GJ 251
- GJ 820A -> GJ 3877 (Tessera — compact/records world)
- GJ 570B -> GJ 1156
- GJ 783B -> GJ 299
- GJ 663B (Guniibuu B) -> GJ 1286 (Kensho — university world)
- GJ 338A -> GJ 4053
- GJ 280B -> GJ 3991
- GJ 15B -> GJ 4274

New system names and roles assigned:
- Tessera: founding compact + institutional records
- Kensho: university world, largest Institute presence
- Vargr: mining (DSMC, MVG/GC minority stakes)
- Parallax: media world (was Procyon)
- Lu Ban: failed corp / mixed industrial (was Groombridge 34)
- Altair: southern gateway (was Rigil Kentaurus)
- Keid: garden world / ecological reservation
- Ross 128: ocean world (fishing, research, tourism)

Also adds docs/design/gj-catalog-full.json (3801 GJ entries from
HYG v4.2) for future star assignment.

**Renaissance (GJ 725A)** — industrial manufacturing base. Five apertures, hub topology, 2 hops from Gateway. Adjacent to Arbour (old money residential — significant because Gate Corporation executives and their perpetual-class investors maintain residences there) and adjacent to the Sirius system (Commission headquarters), which means the Gate Corporation is never more than one or two hops from the Reach's primary regulatory and commercial centers. This positioning is not accidental. Renaissance was chosen early in the settlement period as a manufacturing base in part because of its gate adjacency, and the Gate Corporation's ownership of the system has compounded its strategic value ever since.

The system has the flat industrial character of a place that knows what it is for. Renaissance does not have Arbour's architectural ambition or Sirius's institutional weight. It has freight yards, fabrication facilities, and a workforce that has been building span gates for generations. The Corporation's senior management does not live in Renaissance.

`stability_index: 5` is the highest value in the framework, reserved for systems where the structural conditions preventing instability are so complete that storyteller disruption requires active intervention. Arbour qualifies because the population is not just satisfied — it is filtered. People who live permanently in Arbour chose to live here, and the choice is expensive enough that the people who can make it are disproportionately people who benefit from the system's existing structure. Workers who do not share that interest are employed, not resident — they hold temporary service classifications and do not vote in the council elections. The stability is not incidental. It is designed.
`gate_topology: loop_member` with `aperture_count: 2` for a Wave 1, Tier 4 system is the notable calibration point. No equivalent system in the core sector has this combination. The loop_member classification reflects the two-aperture configuration: the alien-built horizon station in this system has exactly two apertures, connecting Arbour to Sirius and to GJ 725A. The gate count is a property of the alien infrastructure, not a human choice — but it happens to produce exactly the kind of system the founding families wanted. Whether they chose Arbour because it was hard to reach, or whether they would have made it hard to reach if they could, is a question the outcome makes academic.

The cosmopolitan_bustle describes the actual social texture of a system where six hundred million wealthy people receive a constant stream of visitors — financial advisors, legal representatives, social counterparts from the capital and the broader Reach — whose presence creates the ambient density of a genuinely active social environment. The system is not quiet. It presents as quiet. These are different things.

## Supply Dependency
Rigil Kentaurus does not anchor a major industrial or agricultural base. The G2V primary is an excellent host star — near-solar in output, long-lived, stable — and the system's habitable bodies were settled early enough that they have had five centuries to develop. What they have developed is transit capacity, not production.
The system's economy runs on the logic of its position. Three apertures, one of which opens to Cygni B and two of which open into the southern Reach, makes Rigil Kentaurus the single point through which south-bound freight, personnel, and administrative traffic must pass. Everything the southern Reach imports from the core — manufactured components, Commission documentation, Assembly communications, relief shipments — moves through this system. Everything the southern Reach exports moves through it in the other direction. The transit logistics sector is not a supplement to some other economic base. It is the base.
The dependency this creates is mutual and asymmetric in ways that are not fully resolved. The southern Reach systems depend on Rigil Kentaurus remaining open and functional. Rigil Kentaurus depends on the southern Reach having something to move. A system with fewer apertures and a smaller hinterland would be a quiet backwater. Three apertures at the margin of institutional coverage, with two of them pointing south, make it indispensable to populations that have no alternative route.
## Faction Notes
The Concord Assembly maintains a transit regulation office rather than a full delegation. The distinction matters in practice. A full delegation implies a local civic structure worth representing to the Assembly; a transit office implies that what the Assembly cares about here is the flow, not the residents. The office handles paperwork, processes freight manifests, maintains the Assembly's nominal presence at the junction. It is understaffed relative to the volume it processes, and has been understaffed for as long as anyone can measure, because the Assembly's resourcing decisions are made at Sirius by people who have never personally transited a southern Reach gate corridor at peak freight season.
The Lattice Commission's presence is more substantive. South-bound cargo presents the Commission with its most persistent inspection problem: the southern Reach is the part of the network where Commission monitoring is thinnest, and contraband operators understand this. Rigil Kentaurus is the last point at which Commission inspectors have reliable jurisdiction before freight enters the coverage gap. The office is accordingly motivated, and its relationship with the transit combines that move south-bound freight is the ongoing friction characteristic of regulatory checkpoints that know they cannot check everything and must appear to try.
The Syndic presence is purely commercial. The south-corridor freight operators who use Rigil Kentaurus as their operational base have Syndic standing, though their combines lack the multi-generational depth of the core-system industrial families. These are entrepreneurs in a commercial sense that the Cygni B shipbuilding dynasties would not recognize as family business. They are effective, they are mobile, and they are considerably less interested in Assembly deliberations than in the scheduling priorities of the next aperture cycle.
There is no Veil Institute presence at Rigil Kentaurus. In a system that shares a gravity well with the other horizon station in the Alpha Centauri pair — a configuration that raises questions about alien gate-placement logic that the Institute's entire research program exists to answer — the absence of even a liaison office is difficult to read as an oversight.
## Silence Topic
What Rigil Kentaurus does not discuss — what no institution has formally named, and what the alien-gate research community has spent considerable energy not directly asking — is what it means that the builders placed two separate horizon stations in the same stellar system.
The Alpha Centauri pair is a gravitationally bound binary. Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B orbit a shared center of mass with a period of roughly eighty years, varying between 11 and 36 AU in separation. They are not two star systems. They are one system with two stars. And yet the alien builders, whoever they were and whatever logic governed their gate network design, chose to install two distinct horizon stations in this system — one orbiting A, one orbiting B — with different aperture counts, different gate connections, and access to entirely different parts of the human settlement network.
ACB's station has seven apertures and connects into the core institutional cluster. Rigil Kentaurus's station has three apertures and connects to Cygni B and the southern frontier. By every other observable pattern in the gate network, aperture count correlates with a system's centrality in the network: hubs get more apertures, spurs get fewer. But both stations sit in the same gravity well, around stars separated by at most thirty-six astronomical units at their most distant. The network-topology logic that would explain this combination does not match any framework the Institute has published.
The Institute has not published a framework for it. It has published papers on binary-system horizon station placement, on aperture distribution modeling, on the statistical relationship between stellar mass and gate connectivity. None of them address the Alpha Centauri configuration directly. In a research corpus that spans five centuries and two horizon stations located four light-years from Earth, the absence of a direct analysis is itself a kind of answer.
## Narrative Hook
Two horizon stations orbit the same pair of stars, connect to entirely different parts of the Reach, and have never been studied together in any document the Veil Institute will confirm exists.
## Calibration Note
`political_zone: south_reach` with `settlement_wave: wave_1` and `hop_distance: 3` requires explanation, because wave_1 systems at three hops from Gateway are almost uniformly in the institutional core or commercial mid-Reach. Rigil Kentaurus's zone classification is not a data error. It reflects the structural consequence of the alien gate topology: a system settled early, with good physical characteristics, that nonetheless connects primarily southward rather than into the core network. The three apertures point toward Cygni B and into frontier-adjacent corridors. The result is a wave_1 system that has developed the institutional character of a border town rather than a founding settlement.
`star_type: binary-type` is accurate in the sense that this is one component of the Alpha Centauri binary system. The system record represents only the A-component horizon station's zone of influence. Gravitational effects from Alpha Centauri B are real and navigable; the two horizon stations maintain separate operational jurisdictions by convention that has never been formally arbitrated, because formally arbitrating it would require someone to explain the jurisdictional logic of the alien gate placement and neither the Institute nor the Assembly has been willing to do that.
`topology: junction` with 3 apertures is the minimum configuration for junction classification. One connection goes to Cygni B (the system's link to the core network). The other two connections open into the southern Reach. This means Rigil Kentaurus has exactly one route back to core institutional infrastructure and two routes forward into coverage-light frontier territory. From a network-resilience perspective, this is a vulnerability. From a smuggling-route perspective, it is an asset.

## Supply Dependency
Altair does not anchor a major industrial or agricultural base. The A7IV-V primary is luminous — hotter and brighter than Sol, with a habitable zone pushed outward — and the system's habitable bodies were settled early enough that they have had five centuries to develop. What they have developed is transit capacity, not production.
The system's economy runs on the logic of its position. Three apertures, one of which opens to Cygni B and two of which open into the southern Reach, makes Altair the single point through which south-bound freight, personnel, and administrative traffic must pass.

They are effective, they are mobile, and they are considerably less interested in Assembly deliberations than in the scheduling priorities of the next aperture cycle.
There is no Veil Institute presence at Altair. The system's position as the southern gateway — the last institutional checkpoint before frontier space — would logically interest an organization studying the gate network's structural logic. The Institute has not established even a liaison office here. Its interest in the southern corridor, if it exists, is pursued through other channels.
## Silence Topic
What Altair does not discuss: what moves south and does not come back.
The southern Reach is the part of the gate network where institutional coverage is thinnest and response times are longest. Altair is the last system where the Commission can reliably inspect south-bound cargo, where the Assembly's transit documentation is verified, where the institutional apparatus of the core extends before it attenuates into the frontier. This makes Altair the system that knows — or could know, if it chose to look carefully — what is actually flowing into the coverage gap.
The transit operators who run the southern corridors have been doing so for centuries. Their cargo manifests are filed, processed, and archived. The documentation is formally correct. What the documentation does not capture — because the documentation categories were designed for core-zone commerce and have never been revised for the southern corridor's specific traffic patterns — is the growing proportion of freight that does not fit cleanly into any standard category. Components that could be industrial equipment or could be something else. Biological material classified under research exemptions that the Commission's Altair office has been renewing on a rolling basis for decades without the Sirius framework division reviewing the underlying applications. Personnel transfers logged as contractor rotations to installations that do not appear in the Assembly's southern infrastructure registry.
None of this is necessarily illicit. The categories are ambiguous. The operators are technically compliant. The Commission's Altair office processes what it receives. What it does not do — what no one at Altair does — is aggregate the anomalies into a pattern and ask what the pattern describes. The individual filings are routine. The composite picture has never been assembled. Whether this is an oversight or a decision is the question Altair does not raise.
## Narrative Hook
The last Commission checkpoint before the southern frontier has been processing ambiguous cargo manifests for five centuries, and no one has ever assembled the individual anomalies into the composite picture they would form.
## Calibration Note
`star_type: A7IV-V` makes Altair one of the hotter, more luminous stars hosting a settled system in the Reach. A-type stars are bright — Altair is roughly ten times solar luminosity — with wider habitable zones and higher UV output. Settlement infrastructure here is engineered for the stellar environment: UV shielding is standard, the habitable bodies orbit at distances that would be outer-system positions around a cooler star, and agricultural development has always been secondary to the system's transit function. The star's brightness made Altair one of the most conspicuous objects in Earth's night sky, which gives the name a resonance the system's current residents — transit operators and Commission inspectors, mostly — find mildly ironic.
`political_zone: south_reach` with `settlement_wave: wave_1` and `hop_distance: 3` requires explanation, because wave_1 systems at three hops from Gateway are almost uniformly in the institutional core or commercial mid-Reach. Altair's zone classification reflects the structural consequence of the alien gate topology: a system settled early, with good physical characteristics, that nonetheless connects primarily southward rather than into the core network. The three apertures point toward Cygni B and into frontier-adjacent corridors. The result is a wave_1 system that has developed the institutional character of a border town rather than a founding settlement.
`topology: junction` with 3 apertures is the minimum configuration for junction classification. One connection goes to Cygni B (the system's link to the core network). The other two connections open into the southern Reach. This means Altair has exactly one route back to core institutional infrastructure and two routes forward into coverage-light frontier territory. From a network-resilience perspective, this is a vulnerability. From a smuggling-route perspective, it is an asset.

`settlement_wave: wave_1` with only 2 apertures is the same configuration that makes Barnard's Star worth noting — a very early system with limited gate connectivity. In Lacaille 9352's case the explanation is positional rather than proximity-based. The two apertures connect to Cygni B (through the hub cluster) and to the first system in the southern corridor. Wave_1 settlers came here because it was reachable, built infrastructure for the apertures they were given, and the system developed as an endpoint rather than a crossroads. Five centuries later it is still an endpoint, still with two apertures, still connected to Cygni B and to one system further south — and now that southward connection is the entire regional supply chain for everything beyond it.
`topology: loop_member` describes the technical graph property — both connections form part of a cycle rather than a dead-end — but the experiential reality of this system is that it functions as a spur. The loop includes Cygni B and GJ 820A and then back through Lacaille 9352, but the through-traffic on that loop is outweighed by the south-originating and south-destined freight that enters the loop at Lacaille 9352 and exits at Cygni B without completing the cycle. Whether a system is a loop_member or a chokepoint depends on which direction the load is moving, and on the routes available to the traffic that cannot find an alternative.
