The READMEs presented 71.5x as session savings and 499x as measured query savings without published reproduction data. This change labels both as historical author-reported claims and explains that ~20,000/~280 is an approximately 71.4x retrieval-context illustration, not an end-to-end session measurement.

Updates English and PT-BR together, preserves the reported inventory with evidence limitations, and adds an audit tracing the claims to April 12 commits. Documents the Hlido date discrepancy and distinguishes repository review from token validation. Related: #12 (does not close the right-of-reply issue).

Adds a paired benchmark protocol covering pinned inputs, task correctness, normal source-navigation baseline, repeated isolated runs, cache accounting, construction/update costs, and separate query/session scopes. Includes an offline normalized-usage summarizer and explicitly synthetic fixture. No private data, paid executions, or new performance claims.

Validation: README parity (12 sections / 37 fences each), JSON examples, Python compilation, diff whitespace, and offline arithmetic/negative-input checks (multiple requests, missing pair, duplicates, negative counts, empty ledger, zero denominators) passed. Full CI/link checks are left to GitHub Actions.

No merge or auto-merge requested.
