adventure: stop dropping dispatches Pete has no words for
An event_type with no template was a 400 at ingest. That reads like caution and behaves like deletion: gogobee retries a 400 to its cap and then parks the row forever, so rejecting a type Pete hadn't learned to phrase didn't defer the event, it destroyed it. companion_hire went that way. It has been emitted from `!expedition hire` since the combat-engine work landed and has never once reached the site — the game logged a successful emit every time, and the queue row simply never sent. The mitigation on the books was "always deploy Pete first", which is a thing a person has to remember rather than a property of the system. So invert it. An unknown type now warns, gets counted, and publishes on a neutral fallback. 400 is kept for facts that are actually invalid: no guid, or a name that failed the fact-guard. gogobee can ship a new event type any day of the week now; the worst case is a thin card until Pete learns the words. It is thinner than it sounds in practice. gogobee authors dispatch prose from the fact's fields with no per-type switch, so an unrecognised type still arrives with a real headline and lede and is allowed to use them. The fallback only shows through when the model is off or the prose-guard refused the output. Untemplated types never post live to Matrix, whatever tier they claim. A thin card among cards is cheap and reversible; pinging everyone in the room with a dispatch Pete couldn't phrase is neither. The daily digest still carries it, one line among many, which is the right volume for something we don't understand yet. And give companion_hire its template. Pete is the one being hired, so it is first-person like his duels — third-person Pete filling in as a cleric reads as somebody else reporting on him. The admin status page grows a "dispatches with no template" panel, so the next one of these is a to-do list Pete can see rather than an archaeology dig.
