04 / Editorial method
Every note has a visible way back to the evidence.
- 01Trace the source
Prefer specifications, repositories, papers and documented tests over recycled claims.
- 02Expose the method
Pin versions, constraints and the check that makes the result reproducible.
- 03Keep the limit
Publish uncertainty and failure modes beside the recommendation.
