content/ — Wiki Layer Rules

This directory is the live wiki. Every file here is owned by the agent but gated by the owner.

Hard Rules (apply to all subdirectories)

Never create or modify files without an explicit owner trigger. Research output from background agents stays in context only — never write it to disk autonomously.
Never delete files. Archive with archived: true in frontmatter instead.
Always update index.md and log.md after any create/modify operation.
log.md is append-only. Valid labels: ingest, query, capture, lint, refactor, setup.

Directory Map

Folder	Purpose	Owner-gated?
`permanent/`	Atomic concept notes — one idea per file	YES
`literature/`	One note per source, created during INGEST	YES
`fleeting/`	Quick idea captures	YES
`maps/`	Maps of Content — created when domain has 5+ notes	YES
`wip/`	Long-form drafts not ready for permanent	YES
`writing/`	Published/draft articles and blog posts	READ-ONLY unless owner asks
`refs/`	Legacy — preserve as-is, link gradually	READ-ONLY unless owner asks
`til/`	Legacy — preserve as-is	READ-ONLY unless owner asks
`journal/`	Legacy — preserve as-is	READ-ONLY unless owner asks
`cooking/`	Recipes and food notes	YES

Before Writing Any File

Ask yourself:

Did the owner explicitly trigger an INGEST / CAPTURE / QUERY → file operation?
For INGEST: have I discussed key takeaways with the owner (step 2)?
Does a permanent note for this concept already exist? (check index.md first)

If any answer is NO — stop and ask.
