 //! * Heap is never directly addressable.
 //! * All HIP (Heap) access is mediated via Gate Pool resolution.
 //! * `Gate(GateId)` is the only HIP pointer form in `ir_vm`.
+//!
+//! ## Reference Counting (RC)
+//!
+//! The VM uses Reference Counting to manage HIP memory.
+//!
+//! ### RC Rules:
+//! * **Retain**: Increment `strong_rc` when a gate handle is copied.
+//! * **Release**: Decrement `strong_rc` when a gate handle is overwritten or dropped.
+//!
+//! ### RC-Sensitive Instructions:
+//! The following instructions are RC-sensitive and must trigger RC updates:
+//! * `LocalStore`: Release old value, retain new value.
+//! * `GateStore`: Release old value, retain new value.
+//! * `Pop`: Release the popped value.
+//! * `Ret`: Release all live locals in the frame.
+//! * `FrameSync`: Safe point; reclamation occurs after this point.

-# PR-06 — RC Hooks Documentation (No RC Yet)
-
-### Goal
-
-Prepare the VM for RC without implementing it yet.
-
-### Required Changes
-
-* Document which VM instructions are RC-sensitive:
-
-    * `LocalStore`
-    * `GateStore`
-    * stack pop / drop (if present)
-    * frame end / `FrameSync` as safe points
-
-* Document RC rules:
-
-    * retain on handle copy
-    * release on overwrite/drop
-
-### Tests
-
-* Documentation test or unit assertion that the RC-sensitive list exists
-
----
-
-## STOP POINT
-
-After PR-06:
-
-* `ir_core` and `ir_vm` are fully decoupled
-* Lowering is deterministic and placeholder-free
-* VM ISA v0 is defined and stable
-* VM runtime work may begin safely
-
-**Any VM changes before this point must be rejected.**
