Minimal-Channel Harmonic Controller

Use a low-rank controller that observes and actuates only the graph's harmonic coordinates rather than all edge features. For a graph with first Betti number beta_1 = dim ker(B), a beta_1-dimensional cycle basis is sufficient to represent the entire harmonic sector, yielding a compact recurrent memory or adapter for circulation-dependent graph dynamics.
