Operational areas

The parts of running AI-assisted work these moments fall under, each with the ones that fall under it.

  1. Context and continuity 6 What a worker knows when it starts, and what survives when it stops.
  2. Coordination and ownership 6 Who holds what, who is doing what right now, and what happens where two workers meet.
  3. Rules and governance 8 Which rules apply here, whether anything loads them, and whether they still agree with each other.
  4. Decisions 4 What was settled, why, and whether the next worker can find out before reopening it.
  5. Work and its state 8 What is in flight, what is finished, and whether the repository agrees with the tracker.
  6. Verification and evidence 10 Whether "done" is a claim or a fact, and what would prove the difference.
  7. Observability 9 What actually happened while nobody was watching, in a form that is not a transcript.
  8. Model, effort and cost 4 What was spent, on which task, at which capability, and whether the choice was ever recorded.
  9. Documentation and drift 8 Whether what is written still describes what exists, and how many copies of it there are.

The number on each card is the moments that name it, counted from the moments themselves. An entry's own file lists none.
