The seat data answered 'who represents this place?' but not 'who runs this institution?' — the Speaker of the House existed only as the rep for LA-4. This adds the missing axis of institutional power. New Body entities (233): the U.S. House, U.S. Senate, Executive Office, 49 committees, 181 subcommittees — each with its leadership. Federal people (532/542) enriched with bioguide IDs, leadership roles, and committee seats, reconciled from congress-legislators by name. Mike Johnson is now Speaker of the House, not just LA-4. Sources ingested directly into the repo (repo-canonical): Atlas supplied bodies/leadership/committee_memberships via congress-legislators, committed raw in data/. build.py supersedes convert_officeholders.py and reads all four inputs in one deterministic pass (byte-identical on rerun). The 10 unenriched federal records are a finding, not a bug: vacancies, the President, and ~5 seats where Atlas's roster disagrees with the authoritative current roster — model-vs-reality discrepancies to surface.
