Hidden Alchemy — .github
Status: active — org infrastructure, maintained continuously. If this
repository's maintenance stops, its README status key must be updated per §24
lifecycle statuses — never left silently behind.
This repository holds the organization-wide configuration and community health files for the Hidden Alchemy GitHub organization. It is not a product repository; it is the infrastructure that makes the rest of the organization work.
Hidden Alchemy is an open engineering laboratory for transforming raw ideas into real systems:
IDEA → CONCEPT → ARCHITECTURE → SYSTEM → AUTOMATION → REALITY.

Many of these files are inherited automatically by other repositories in the organization via GitHub's default community health file behavior, so changes here propagate org-wide.
This repository's profile/README.md is distinct from this root README.md:
the former is the public face of the organization, the latter explains the
purpose of this repository. Both are maintained as part of the org foundation
milestones rather than as an afterthought to any project work.
