Single-Episode Modality Ablation Report

This diagnostic reruns compact ridge heads on the exported one-episode feature matrix. It is useful for checking which real feature blocks can support each task on this episode, not for estimating dataset-wide generalization.

No synthetic labels are introduced. Derived proxy targets are marked in target_variant, and feature groups that overlap with the target source are marked in target_source_overlap.
