How a piece of content moves through this project. Six stages, each with one home. Nothing here is optional ceremony: every stage exists so the next one starts from something instead of nothing.
1. Capture
A raw idea gets one bullet in docs/ideas/idea-inbox.md:
- **Title.** [pillar tag] the idea
Unpolished is fine. Each bullet becomes its own page in the Ideas section on the next build, so nothing gets lost.
2. Shape
Open the Idea Studio (/docs/site/tools/idea-studio.html):
- Click through the workflow steps to turn the raw idea into a plan.
- Copy the hand-off brief at the end.
3. Script
Run the brief through the scriptwriting workflow (PROJECT-INSTRUCTIONS.md plus the 02 Skills/ systems), then save the script to:
- File:
docs/scripts/NN Project Name - Presenter.md - Frontmatter:
platform, andstatus: draftwhile it's not ready. Drafts stay off the built site. - The build computes spoken length and word count into the page's At a glance table.
4. Series
A repeatable format that has earned its place gets a page of its own:
- File:
docs/series/NN Name.md - Frontmatter:
status,format,pillar,role,platform, andorder: <filename number + 1>- the+1keeps the sidebar order intact because00 content-series-system.mdholds slot 1 (a bareorder: 0would be ignored by the generator). - See
docs/foundation/series.mdfor the bar it has to clear first.
5. Strategy
Changes to the intents, pillars, or series system are edits to the existing files in docs/foundation/, not new pages.
6. Publish
npm run docs:build
This regenerates docs/site/. Commit both the source files and the built site.
