Fixes hq issue 844: knowledge-base.propose refused every new version of an accepted research effort with status active unless it came as a progressive insight, and the review then judged a new finding or document as a correction of fact. Playbook 01 does research in further documents of the same effort.
Propose (modules/mesh-knowledge cmd/mesh-knowledge/kb.go): a research effort whose served status is active takes a new version without insight, stored pending so the served version stays until the review approves; a graduated or abandoned effort and an accepted decision still need insight. Record.IsInsight(); accept records no empty insight; review.go and operator.go use the same check, so the review does not call such a version a correction of fact. README and the tool's description say the exception.
Dated rules (deferral, retired words, daemon lines): a new version of an active effort is judged by the rules in force on the day it is proposed (JudgeRecordOn), while the record keeps its own date, so an old effort's marked insights still pass the insight-form rule.
Tests (active_effort_test.go): an active effort takes a new document, reviewed as a proposal and not an insight in history; a graduated effort and a decision still refuse; a changes verdict leaves the served version served; active to graduated without became still refused; an effort dated 2026-10-01 refuses a retired word in a new version; an effort holding a marked insight of 2026-10-05 takes a new version.
