Lesson 132: Simulator honesty boundaries
Focus
Bias toward repeatable experiment notebooks: circuits, mitigation settings, timestamps. Token Simulator honesty boundaries:132 keeps neighbouring lessons differentiable.

1. Target CI width `0.065` @ confidence `96`
2. Pilot shots `512` expanding to `10583` if variance plateaus
3. Telemetry fields `job_id,device_tz,mitigation_bundle`
4. Stop rule `halt if RB infidelity > 0.002184`
