The config only shows top-level keys; the `synthesize`/`extract` phase settings aren't set at all (that's why they default to skipped). The key gap:

dream.synthesize.session_corpus_dir

is unset. Before I flip anything, let me understand what synthesis actually operates on and whether the orphan problem is a linking/extract issue vs a synthesize issue. Let me check what "extract" would do — that's the phase that creates links/timeline entries between pages, which is what would connect Slack↔️meetings.
