# content-explorer — Agent Instructions

## Repo Identity

**Purpose:** A domain-independent interface for browsing an interconnected field of knowledge. OnCo (onco.cc) is the UX reference. Its MIT-licensed code may be adapted after a pinned audit. Its corpus, marks, and medical widgets are out of scope.

**Domain:** infotech
**Category:** research
**Repo slug:** `content-explorer`
**Workplan prefix:** `CONTENT-WP`
**State Hub:** http://127.0.0.1:8000 (workstation forward to the railiance01 primary)

This checkout is a research seed, not a running application. There is no install, dev server, or UI test suite yet. The executable check today is:

```sh
python3 scripts/validate_fixtures.py
python3 -m unittest tests.test_contract tests.test_ingest
```

## State Hub

Repository files are the source of work records. Do not create workplans or tasks with `POST /workplans/`, `POST /tasks/`, or `statehub create-workstream` / `create-task`. Change the workplan file, commit, and project it with:

```sh
~/repo-manager/.venv/bin/rmgr sync --path . --api-base http://127.0.0.1:8000 --push
```

`statehub fix-consistency` is the consistency audit, not the normal registration path.

### Orient

```sh
cat .custodian-brief.md
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/workplans/?repo_slug=content-explorer" | python3 -m json.tool
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=content-explorer&unread_only=true" | python3 -m json.tool
```

Health is `GET /state/health`. If the forward drops, run `bridge status` before treating the hub as down.

### Close

Record one progress event for work that actually landed:

```sh
curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/progress/ \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"summary":"what was done","event_type":"note","author":"content-explorer"}'
```

## Boundaries

- Do not copy the OnCo corpus, logos, or CC BY-NC dataset into this repo.
- `tests/onco-reference/local/` and `authorization.json` stay gitignored until CONTENT-WP-0007's data-use gate is cleared.
- Fetch and pin upstream with `scripts/bootstrap-upstream.sh` under CONTENT-WP-0000. Do not treat the seed as a fork.
