    report.md     archdoc-style front matter; the finding and its basis
    sources.md    every source consulted, with retrieval dates
    searches.md   the queries run, verbatim, and their yield

D3 lives here: context, mechanism, uptake & applications.

Two rules, both learned the hard way:

  1. Every source that mattered also gets a library/records/ entry. A report that cites a URL inline and nowhere else is a report whose evidence evaporates.
  2. Archive the searches, not just the findings. docs/construction.md in the library was written from research that was then discarded — the conclusions survived, the basis did not. Wohlin snowballing requires recording each iteration's yield, and that is impossible retroactively.

Research about how to run the library — bibliography method, ingestion workflow — goes in library/research/, not here.
