# nudge-space — Agent Instructions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Repo Identity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Purpose:** Peripheral registry of hunches that participants park in nudges/ folders, kept for later search and a topic heatmap rather than turned into tasks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Domain:** infotech
|
||||||
|
**Repo slug:** nudge-space
|
||||||
|
**Topic ID:** `e61b8d01-78ec-47af-a68b-b92afa6fb188`
|
||||||
|
**Workplan prefix:** `NUDGE-WP-`
|
||||||

## State Hub Integration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Custodian State Hub tracks work across all domains. Codex uses HTTP REST and
|
||||||
|
the `statehub` CLI by default. MCP is opt-in because the current Codex MCP bridge
|
||||||
|
adds severe call latency; the full administrative MCP surface remains available
|
||||||
|
to clients that need it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- BEGIN STATE-HUB-ACCESS -->
|
||||||
|
| Context | URL |
|
||||||
|
|---------|-----|
|
||||||
|
| Local workstation | `http://127.0.0.1:8000` |
|
||||||
|
| Remote (railiance01, in-cluster) | `http://10.43.68.154:8000` |
|
||||||
|
| Optional local edge relay | `http://127.0.0.1:18080` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Do not instruct a remote agent to use `http://127.0.0.1:18000`. That reverse tunnel is retired; on railiance01 reach the hub at the in-cluster address above.
|
||||||
|
<!-- END STATE-HUB-ACCESS -->
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When an operator has enabled the edge relay, set API_BASE to the relay URL.
|
||||||
|
Queueable writes return an explicit queued receipt if the central hub is
|
||||||
|
unreachable. Treat that as pending local evidence, then ask the operator to run
|
||||||
|
statehub outbox status/replay after connectivity returns.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Codex workspace-write sandboxes need network access enabled to reach the host's
|
||||||
|
loopback listener. Bootstrap this once with `make -C ~/state-hub configure-codex`
|
||||||
|
and restart Codex. The canonical REST health endpoint is `/state/health`, not
|
||||||
|
`/health`. If a sandboxed loopback probe fails, retry it with escalated execution
|
||||||
|
before declaring State Hub unavailable; a managed Codex permission profile may
|
||||||
|
still enforce isolated networking. Experimental MCP can be enabled explicitly
|
||||||
|
with `make -C ~/state-hub configure-codex WITH_MCP=1`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Orient at session start
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Offline brief — works without hub connection
|
||||||
|
cat .custodian-brief.md
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Active workplans for this domain
|
||||||
|
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/workplans/?topic_id=e61b8d01-78ec-47af-a68b-b92afa6fb188&status=active" \
|
||||||
|
| python3 -m json.tool
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Check inbox
|
||||||
|
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/?to_agent=nudge-space&unread_only=true" \
|
||||||
|
| python3 -m json.tool
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Mark a message read:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/messages/<id>/read" \
|
||||||
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{}'
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Log progress (required at session close)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
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": "codex",
|
||||||
|
"workplan_id": "<uuid>",
|
||||||
|
"task_id": "<uuid>"
|
||||||
|
}'
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Omit `workplan_id` / `task_id` when not applicable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Update task status
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
|
||||||
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||||
|
-d '{"status": "progress"}'
|
||||||
|
# values: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Flag a task for human review
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
curl -s -X PATCH "http://127.0.0.1:8000/tasks/<task_id>" \
|
||||||
|
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
|
||||||
|
-d '{"needs_human": true, "intervention_note": "reason"}'
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Session Protocol
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Start:**
|
||||||
|
1. `cat .custodian-brief.md` — domain goal and open workplans (offline-safe)
|
||||||
|
2. Check inbox: `GET /messages/?to_agent=nudge-space&unread_only=true`; mark read
|
||||||
|
3. Scan workplans: `ls workplans/` — note `status: ready`, `active`, or `blocked` files and open tasks
|
||||||
|
4. Check human-needed tasks: `GET /tasks/?needs_human=true`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**During work:**
|
||||||
|
- Update task statuses in workplan files as tasks progress
|
||||||
|
- Record significant decisions via `POST /decisions/`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Close:**
|
||||||
|
1. Update workplan file task statuses to reflect progress
|
||||||
|
2. If finishing a workplan: hand off **residuals** as live work records first
|
||||||
|
(intake with `origin: residual` + `origin_ref: <WP-id>`, or a next workplan /
|
||||||
|
decision / engagement). Do not park leftovers only in prose or `SCOPE.md`.
|
||||||
|
Canon: `the-custodian/canon/standards/work-record-types_v0.1.md` § Residuals.
|
||||||
|
3. Log: `POST /progress/` with a summary of what changed (name handoff ids)
|
||||||
|
4. After workplan file changes, run:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
uv run --project ~/repo-manager rmgr sync --path . --push
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
This assigns only missing deterministic identifiers, verifies the pushed
|
||||||
|
Forgejo commit and `primary/railliance01`, then requests one central
|
||||||
|
reconciliation. A queued receipt is pending evidence; rerun after
|
||||||
|
connectivity returns. Use `statehub fix-consistency` for a separate deep audit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Credential and access routing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Audience:** Codex, Claude Code, Grok, and custodian agents that call **llm-connect**
|
||||||
|
for inference. Run this check **before** requesting secrets, API keys, SSH access,
|
||||||
|
login tokens, or database passwords — in any repo, not only `ops-warden`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ops-warden **issues SSH certificates only** (`warden sign`, `cert_command`). Every
|
||||||
|
other credential need belongs to another subsystem. **Do not** message
|
||||||
|
`ops-warden` on State Hub expecting a secret value; the reply is a pointer, not a key.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Lookup (do this first)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
warden route find "<describe your need>" --json
|
||||||
|
warden route show <catalog-id> --json
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Requires the `warden` CLI from `~/ops-warden` (`uv tool install .` or `uv run warden`).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Agent runtime | How to orient |
|
||||||
|
| --- | --- |
|
||||||
|
| **Codex / Grok** (shell, HTTP State Hub) | `warden route` commands above; inbox `to_agent=nudge-space` is for coordination, not secret vending |
|
||||||
|
| **Claude Code** (MCP when available) | `get_domain_summary("custodian")` for workplans; **still** use `warden route` for credential ownership |
|
||||||
|
| **llm-connect** (inference service) | Never put secret retrieval in prompts; route custody to OpenBao/operator paths surfaced by `warden route` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Quick routing table
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| I need… | Owner | ops-warden executes? |
|
||||||
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||||||
|
| SSH cert (`adm`/`agt`/`atm`) | ops-warden | **Yes** — `warden sign` |
|
||||||
|
| API key, DB password, provider token | OpenBao (`railiance-platform`) | No — route only |
|
||||||
|
| Login / OIDC / MFA | key-cape / Keycloak | No — route only |
|
||||||
|
| Authorization decision | flex-auth | No — route only |
|
||||||
|
| activity-core → issue-core emission | activity-core + issue-core | No — `warden route show activity-core-issue-sink` |
|
||||||
|
| SSH tunnel | ops-bridge (+ `cert_command` from warden) | No — route only |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Anti-patterns (do not do these)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `POST /messages/` to `ops-warden` asking for `ISSUE_CORE_API_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, etc.
|
||||||
|
- Inventing `warden secret`, `warden login`, `warden bao`, `warden tunnel` — they do not exist
|
||||||
|
- Pasting secrets into Git, State Hub, workplans, logs, or chat
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Other capabilities (reuse-surface)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Non-credential capabilities are usually discovered through **reuse-surface** federation
|
||||||
|
(`reuse-surface` registry / `capability.*` indexes). Credential routing is inlined in
|
||||||
|
every repo's agent instructions because it is high-frequency, high-risk, and easy to
|
||||||
|
get wrong.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Canon:** `~/ops-warden/wiki/CredentialRouting.md` · catalog `~/ops-warden/registry/routing/catalog.yaml`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- REPO-AGENTS-EXTENSIONS -->
|
||||||
|
<!-- Append repo-specific agent instructions below this marker.
|
||||||
|
The state-hub template sync preserves content after this line. -->
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Nudge Space
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Read `INTENT.md` and `docs/concept_v0.1.md` before changing this repository.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A nudge is a note in a repository's `nudges/` folder. It is a hunch in peripheral view. It is not a work record.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Do not create an intake, workplan, or task merely to keep a hunch. The `nudges/` file is how it is kept.
|
||||||
|
- Do not refine a nudge into acceptance criteria, a design, or an owner.
|
||||||
|
- Promotion is a deliberate act in the repository that should own the resulting work. It is not the default end of a session here.
|
||||||
|
- The Forgejo reader and the topic heatmap are described in the concept. They stay undesigned until someone promotes that work on purpose. That description is the parking lot for them. Do not open a residual intake for it when closing a workplan.
|
||||||
|
- There is no install, test, lint, or run command yet. A session that is only recording a hunch has nothing to build.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Participant notes live in `<repo>/nudges/YYYYMMDD-short-slug.md`. This repository's own `nudges/` folder follows that convention. `nudges/README.md` is not a nudge.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Workplan Convention (ADR-001)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Work items originate as files in this repo — not in the hub. The hub is a
|
||||||
|
read/cache/index layer that rebuilds from files.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**File location:** `workplans/NUDGE-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Archived location:** finished workplans may move to
|
||||||
|
`workplans/archived/YYMMDD-NUDGE-WP-NNNN-<slug>.md`. The `YYMMDD` prefix is
|
||||||
|
the completion/archive date; the frontmatter `id` does not change.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Ad Hoc Tasks:** small opportunistic fixes discovered during a session use
|
||||||
|
`workplans/ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD.md`, workplan id
|
||||||
|
`NUDGE-WP-ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD`, and task ids
|
||||||
|
`NUDGE-WP-ADHOC-YYYY-MM-DD-T01`, etc. `NUDGE-WP` includes its final `-WP`
|
||||||
|
token. Unqualified historic `ADHOC-*` ids are grandfathered and must not be
|
||||||
|
copied into new records. Use this only for low-risk work completed directly;
|
||||||
|
create a normal workplan for anything needing analysis, design, approval,
|
||||||
|
dependencies, or multiple phases.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Frontmatter:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
id: NUDGE-WP-NNNN
|
||||||
|
type: workplan
|
||||||
|
title: "..."
|
||||||
|
domain: infotech
|
||||||
|
repo: nudge-space
|
||||||
|
status: proposed | ready | active | blocked | backlog | finished | archived
|
||||||
|
owner: codex
|
||||||
|
topic_slug: ...
|
||||||
|
created: "YYYY-MM-DD"
|
||||||
|
updated: "YYYY-MM-DD"
|
||||||
|
state_hub_workstream_id: "<uuid>" # deterministic UUIDv5; managed by Repo Manager
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use `proposed` for a new draft, `ready` after review against current repo
|
||||||
|
state, and `finished` after implementation. `stalled` and `needs_review` are
|
||||||
|
derived health labels, not frontmatter statuses.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Terminology:** workplan is the fleet term; `workstream` appears only in legacy
|
||||||
|
API/MCP/frontmatter bridges until `STATE-WP-0069` retires them — see
|
||||||
|
`the-custodian/canon/standards/workplan-terminology-fleet_v0.1.md`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Task block format** (one per `##` section):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
## Task Title
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
` ` `task
|
||||||
|
id: NUDGE-WP-NNNN-T01
|
||||||
|
status: wait | todo | progress | done | cancel
|
||||||
|
priority: high | medium | low
|
||||||
|
state_hub_task_id: "<uuid>" # deterministic UUIDv5; managed by Repo Manager
|
||||||
|
` ` `
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Task description text.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Status progression: `todo` → `progress` → `done`; use `wait` for waiting/blocked work and `cancel` for stopped work.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Residuals when finishing:** actionable leftovers become live work records
|
||||||
|
before `status: finished` — usually an intake (`origin: residual`,
|
||||||
|
`origin_ref: NUDGE-WP-NNNN`) or a spawned workplan. Residual is a *role*,
|
||||||
|
not a kind. Fleet list lives on State Hub, not in `SCOPE.md`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To create a new workplan:
|
||||||
|
1. Write the file following the format above
|
||||||
|
2. Run `uv run --project ~/repo-manager rmgr sync --path . --push`.
|
||||||
|
3. Run `statehub fix-consistency` only when a separate deep audit is needed.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Why it exists
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Participants in this ecosystem keep noticing things that are relevant, and
|
||||||
|
that are not ready to become work. Turning each one into a task would spend
|
||||||
|
the focus the work needs. Dropping each one would throw away a signal that
|
||||||
|
might matter later, or that might show up again and again.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nudge Space is the parking space for those notices. In an agile meeting the
|
||||||
|
parking lot holds a thought that has relevance and does not have the floor.
|
||||||
|
Here the same thought is written down, left in peripheral view, and kept
|
||||||
|
available for when it is needed or when it recurs.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The repository is a semi-structured collection at the very beginning of value
|
||||||
|
and product discovery. A nudge is earlier than an intake. It is a hunch with
|
||||||
|
an origin, not a commitment.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## The governing principle
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
nudge-space owns **peripheral attention**.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It should answer:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **What have people noticed?** Hunches, unfinished ideas, and recurring
|
||||||
|
themes, each with a pointer back to where they were encountered.
|
||||||
|
2. **Where does attention gather?** A topic heatmap, in the spirit of a word
|
||||||
|
cloud, that develops as nudges accumulate.
|
||||||
|
3. **What is still only a hunch?** The record stays a nudge until someone
|
||||||
|
deliberately promotes its substance into a work record somewhere else.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A nudge stays in the periphery. Elaborating it here, or filing it as a task
|
||||||
|
so it will not be forgotten, spends the focus this place exists to protect.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What it is
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
nudge-space is the **discovery periphery** for the ecosystem.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It contains:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- the intent and concept for that periphery
|
||||||
|
- the convention by which a repository connects: a `nudges/` folder of
|
||||||
|
semi-structured notes
|
||||||
|
- later, a read of those folders through Forgejo, and a search and
|
||||||
|
exploration space over what they contain
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The source of a nudge stays in the repository where it was encountered. This
|
||||||
|
repository collects and, in time, projects. Participants keep editing their
|
||||||
|

## What it is not
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Concern | Where it belongs |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| Executable work, acceptance, owners, deadlines | A workplan in the owning repository |
|
||||||
|
| A spark someone has decided should enter coordination | An intake in the owning repository |
|
||||||
|
| Decisions, canon, and standards | The owning repository, or the-custodian |
|
||||||
|
| Product design and implementation of an idea | The repository that takes the idea up |
|
||||||
|
| A ranked backlog | Nowhere. Recurrence is a signal, and a signal is not an assignment |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Promotion is a separate act. Someone copies the substance into a work record
|
||||||
|
in the repository that should own it, and may leave a pointer on the nudge.
|
||||||
|
The nudge file remains.

||||||

|

|
|

|
## What it enables
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When this repository is doing its job, a participant can:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- park a hunch in the repository where it appeared, under `nudges/`, and go
|
||||||
|
back to the work
|
||||||
|
- find that hunch again, with its origin
|
||||||
|
- see which themes recur across repositories, as a heatmap that develops
|
||||||
|
over time
|
||||||
|
- choose, in a later sitting, whether a recurring theme deserves to become
|
||||||
|
real work
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Design values
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Focus stays with the work.** Recording a nudge is a small act. Refining it
|
||||||
|
waits for a deliberate promotion.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Origin stays attached.** A nudge names where it was encountered.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**The source stays put.** Participant repositories keep their own `nudges/`
|
||||||
|
folders. Nudge Space reads them through Forgejo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Recurrence is the interesting event.** A theme that returns, across days or
|
||||||
|
across repositories, is the signal worth seeing. A single hunch can sit
|
||||||
|
quietly.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Rough on purpose.** The collection is semi-structured. Enough shape to
|
||||||
|
search and to cluster. Little enough shape that it cannot become a second
|
||||||
|
task system.

# SCOPE
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## One-liner
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nudge Space is the peripheral registry of hunches that are worth remembering
|
||||||
|
and should not become tasks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Core Idea
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Participants drop semi-structured notes in a `nudges/` folder inside the
|
||||||
|
repository where the hunch was encountered. Nudge Space is the concept and,
|
||||||
|
later, the Forgejo-backed search and topic heatmap over those folders. The
|
||||||
|
collection is the earliest layer of value and product discovery: before an
|
||||||
|
intake, and outside the work-record backbone.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The concept is `docs/concept_v0.1.md`. The reason the repository exists is
|
||||||
|
`INTENT.md`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## In Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The meaning of a nudge, and the line between a nudge and a work record.
|
||||||
|
- The participant convention: a top-level `nudges/` folder of one-file Markdown notes.
|
||||||
|
- The minimum file shape that later search and clustering can read.
|
||||||
|
- Registration of this repository with State Hub.
|
||||||
|
- A future read-only ingest of `nudges/` through Forgejo, and an exploration space over the result, once someone deliberately promotes that work.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Out of Scope
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Turning a nudge into a task, intake, or workplan from inside this repository.
|
||||||
|
- Ranking, assigning, estimating, or scheduling parked hunches.
|
||||||
|
- Editing participant repositories. The source of a nudge stays where it was written.
|
||||||
|
- Decisions, canon, and product design. Those belong to the repository that picks a theme up.
|
||||||
|
- A new credential lane for Forgejo. The reader uses access the estate already has.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Current State
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Status: concept established, 2026-10-04. The convention is specified. The Forgejo reader and the heatmap are named and unbuilt.
|
||||||
|
- Category: research. The repository holds the discovery collection and its concept. It is not yet a deployable tool.
|
||||||
|
- Domain: infotech, because the registry is an internal instrument for participants of this estate. Agents are a secondary domain, as participants. Market sectors are not.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Getting Oriented
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Start with: `INTENT.md`
|
||||||
|
- Concept: `docs/concept_v0.1.md`
|
||||||
|
- Participant folder: `nudges/README.md`
|
||||||
|
- Agent instructions: `AGENTS.md`
|
||||||
|
- Workplans: `workplans/`

# Nudge Space — Concept v0.1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nudge Space is a parking lot for the ecosystem. A participant encounters
|
||||||
|
something relevant, and the encounter is not worth a task. The thought is
|
||||||
|
also too interesting to drop on the floor. It goes into peripheral view:
|
||||||
|
kept, searchable, and able to show its face again if it keeps coming back.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is the earliest layer of value and product discovery. The material is
|
||||||
|
semi-structured on purpose. It is a collection of hunches, not a product
|
||||||
|
backlog and not a design.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A **discovery topic** in this document is a theme that emerges from many
|
||||||
|
nudges, the way a word cloud grows. That is a different thing from a State
|
||||||
|
Hub topic, which is the registration bucket this repository sits in.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## The situation it answers
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Work in this estate is coordinated by work records: intakes, workplans,
|
||||||
|
tasks, decisions. That backbone is for things someone has decided to carry.
|
||||||
|
The path into it is easy to overuse. A sharp remark in a review, a repeated
|
||||||
|
irritation, a half-seen product shape, a tool that might matter next year:
|
||||||
|
each of these can be written up as a task in a minute, and each such task
|
||||||
|
competes with the work that already has the floor.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The other failure is silence. The same hunch appears in three repositories
|
||||||
|
over a month, and nobody can see that, because each encounter was forgotten
|
||||||
|
at the end of the session.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The parking-lot rule from agile meetings is the remedy. The thought is
|
||||||
|
acknowledged, written where it can be found, and left alone. Attention
|
||||||
|
returns to the agenda. Later, if the thought is still there, or if it has
|
||||||
|
accumulated neighbours, someone can choose to pick it up.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What a nudge is
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A nudge is a short note of an encounter.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It has:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- something that was noticed
|
||||||
|
- where it was encountered
|
||||||
|
- when
|
||||||
|
- enough words that a later reader can recognise it
|
||||||
|
- optional tags, which are the seeds of the heatmap
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It has no status, no owner, no estimate, and no acceptance criteria. It is
|
||||||
|
not finished or cancelled. It sits.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A nudge is earlier than an intake. An intake, in the fleet work-record
|
||||||
|
standard, is a spark someone has decided should enter coordination. A nudge
|
||||||
|
is the spark before that decision. The kind registry of work records stays
|
||||||
|
closed. A note with no lifecycle is already outside that registry: the
|
||||||
|
standard says so for `RISK-N-*` notes, and the same line is drawn here.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Promotion, when it happens, happens somewhere else. A person or an agent
|
||||||
|
creates an intake or a workplan in the repository that should own the work,
|
||||||
|
and may then add a `promoted` pointer on the nudge. The nudge file stays in
|
||||||
|
place, so the periphery still shows that the thought existed and where the
|
||||||
|
work went.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Where nudges live
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A repository connects to Nudge Space by keeping its nudges in a top-level
|
||||||
|
folder named `nudges/`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The folder is the whole integration. There is no registration call per
|
||||||
|
nudge, and participants do not copy their notes into this repository. The
|
||||||
|
note stays next to the work where it was encountered, and it is published
|
||||||
|
the same way the rest of that repository is published: a commit on Forgejo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This repository follows the same convention for hunches encountered while
|
||||||
|
working on Nudge Space itself. Its `nudges/` folder is a participant folder.
|
||||||
|
The index this repository will eventually build is a projection of many such
|
||||||
|
folders, including its own.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### File shape
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
One nudge is one Markdown file.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```text
|
||||||
|
nudges/YYYYMMDD-short-slug.md
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The date is the day it was first written. The slug is stable. Renaming is a
|
||||||
|
later problem for the reader; until then the path is the identity, together
|
||||||
|
with the repository that holds it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml

||||||

|
||||||
|
title: A few words naming the hunch
|
||||||
|
noticed: 2026-10-04
|
||||||
|
origin: repo, conversation, document, or url — specific enough to find again
|
||||||
|
tags: [kebab-case, another-theme]
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
What was noticed. A few sentences of the original thought are enough.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Why it is parked. One or two sentences on why it should stay in the periphery.
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Optional fields, used when they are true:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Field | Meaning |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| `recurrence` | Whole number. Bump it when the same hunch shows up again. Absent means once. |
|
||||||
|
| `see_also` | Paths or URLs that belong to the same encounter. |
|
||||||
|
| `promoted` | Id of a work record created elsewhere, after a deliberate promotion. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The body can be rough. Write the thought in the words it arrived in. Do not
|
||||||
|
add a task list, a design, an estimate, or an owner. Those are the marks of
|
||||||
|
work, and work belongs in a work record.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A future reader skips, and does not index as nudges:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `README.md`
|
||||||
|
- names that start with `.` or `_`
|
||||||
|
- anything outside `nudges/`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How this repository reads them
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The intended reader is Nudge Space, fetching participant folders through
|
||||||
|
Forgejo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The shape of that read:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. The set of repositories is the set this estate already publishes on
|
||||||
|
Forgejo. The remote form already used here is
|
||||||
|
`forgejo-remote:coulomb/<repo>`.
|
||||||
|
2. The reader fetches a repository read-only and takes `nudges/**/*.md` at a
|
||||||
|
commit.
|
||||||
|
3. It does not commit back into participant repositories.
|
||||||
|
4. It uses whatever Forgejo read access the estate already has. This concept
|
||||||
|
opens no new credential lane.
|
||||||
|
5. A collected nudge is identified by repository plus path. Frontmatter
|
||||||
|
enriches that identity. It does not replace it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Search and exploration sit on top of that collection: words, tags, origin
|
||||||
|
repository, and date. Opening a tag shows the files that fed it, each still
|
||||||
|
pointing at its home repository.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
v0.1 does not build that reader. It fixes the place the notes live and the
|
||||||
|
shape they have, so a later reader has an honest corpus.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## The heatmap
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Over time the collection develops a topic heatmap, close to a word cloud.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Tokens come from `tags`, from `title`, and from phrases that repeat in the
|
||||||
|
bodies. A token gains weight when more nudges carry it, when they come from
|
||||||
|
more than one repository, and when they recur or arrive recently. The exact
|
||||||
|
weighting waits until there is a body of nudges to look at. Choosing a
|
||||||
|
formula against an empty collection would be ceremony.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The heatmap is a perception aid. It answers "what keeps coming back?" It
|
||||||
|
does not sort a backlog, assign an owner, or create a task. A bright topic
|
||||||
|
is a reason to look. Looking is optional.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Where this sits in discovery
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Earliest first:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Nudge.** Noticed, parked, still peripheral. This repository.
|
||||||
|
2. **Intake.** Someone decides the spark should enter coordination. The
|
||||||
|
owning repository.
|
||||||
|
3. **Workplan and tasks.** The spark has a body of work. The owning
|
||||||
|
repository.
|
||||||
|
4. **Product, tool, or canon.** The work has a durable home.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Nudge Space owns step 1. Steps 2–4 stay in the repositories that take the
|
||||||
|
work up. State Hub remains the read model for those work records. Nudges are
|
||||||
|
not projected into it as tasks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What v0.1 establishes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- This intent and concept.
|
||||||
|
- The `nudges/` convention and the file shape above.
|
||||||
|
- Registration of the repository with State Hub, so the place has an address
|
||||||
|
in the estate.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What stays undesigned until someone promotes it
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These are named so they are not forgotten. They are not tasks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The Forgejo fetch and the index.
|
||||||
|
- The search and exploration space.
|
||||||
|
- The weighting of the heatmap.
|
||||||
|
- Any view that spans private repositories beyond the Forgejo access that
|
||||||
|
already exists.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A recurring theme in the corpus is the evidence that one of these, or any
|
||||||
|
other hunch, might deserve an intake. The evidence is the recurrence. The
|
||||||
|
decision to promote stays explicit, and it is made outside this folder.

# Establish Nudge Space and register it
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Give the peripheral registry a durable statement of intent, a concept for
|
||||||
|
the participant convention, and an address in State Hub.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Forgejo ingest and the topic heatmap are described in
|
||||||
|
`docs/concept_v0.1.md`. They are not residuals of this workplan. They stay
|
||||||
|
out of the work-record backbone until someone deliberately promotes them.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

`INTENT.md` states the parking-lot role. `docs/concept_v0.1.md` states the
|
||||||
|
`nudges/` convention, the file shape, the Forgejo read, and the heatmap.
|
||||||
|
`SCOPE.md`, `.repo-classification.yaml`, and `nudges/README.md` match that
|
||||||
|
concept.
