…verlay route `shape-search <owner-hex>` reads games/gs1/recon/en/main/<owner>.c and scores it with `compiler candidate-show`, so it only reaches main-image owners. The same greedy respelling loop is just as useful on an overlay candidate that a lane or `thumb2c tune` left a few halfwords short. Second form: `shape-search --source FILE --owner <overlay>:<addressHex> --span N [rounds]` scores FILE (edited in place, as before) through `overlay score FILE --owner <owner> --span N`. The mutation engine and the accept-on-improvement loop are untouched; the first form behaves as before. On 33 overlay residuals left at differing_halfwords 1-40 by hand work, six rounds each converted one to exact (resource_383:02002db4, 6 -> 0, by a single s32 -> s16 retype of a table base local).

On 33 overlay residuals that hand work had left at
differing_halfwords1–40, six rounds each (a few seconds per owner) converted one to exact:resource_383:02002db4, 6 → 0, by a singles32 → s16retype of a table base local. The other 32 did not move, which matches their scorer class (scheduling and allocation floors that respelling does not reach). Cheap enough to run as a fixed rung before any manual attempt.
