Workflow

1. Intake

Run finding-unknowns before implementation planning.

Classify:

  • known knowns;
  • known unknowns;
  • unknown knowns;
  • unknown unknowns.

Declare familiarity as new, partial, or known.

2. Discovery

Use the smallest discovery pass that can change the plan:

Need Skill
Teach unfamiliar territory unknowns-blindspot
Extract implicit preference unknowns-brainstorm
Resolve named decisions unknowns-interview
Use an artifact as spec unknowns-references

Do not ask questions that the repository, docs, or references can answer. Do not ask trivia that will not change what gets built.

3. Implementation

Every implementation operation keeps implementation-notes.md.

The key section is:

## Deviations

If the implementation differs from the plan, log:

  • what the plan expected;
  • what the territory revealed;
  • which conservative option was chosen;
  • why it was conservative;
  • whether follow-up is needed.

4. Review And Learning

Use unknowns-explainer when reviewers need buy-in.

Use unknowns-quiz when the operator wants durable understanding. The quiz is especially useful after long sessions where the change touched existing paths that are not obvious from the diff.

5. Automation

The workflow can be enforced with lightweight checks:

  • ledger.md exists before implementation;
  • implementation packet includes the implementation-notes instruction;
  • implementation notes exist before merge;
  • learning lanes produce a quiz result.

Automation should support the habit, not replace judgment.
