Add paper-dialogues research line; scaffold Deppert commentary

Establish a parallel comparative-reading track: one external work at a time,
with commentary and support/challenge matrix against Soul Frame. First entry
is Wolfgang Deppert, Die Evolution des Bewusstseins (bibliographic identity
still to lock).

+Soul Frame — Paper Dialogues
+============================
+
+Purpose
+-------
+This research line takes one external paper (or book chapter / essay) at a time
+and reads it *in dialogue* with Soul Frame.
+
+The goal is not a full literature review and not a hostile refutation exercise.
+
+The goal is:
+
+  1. understand the paper on its own terms,
+  2. translate its claims into (or against) Soul Frame vocabulary,
+  3. record where Soul Frame is supported, extended, challenged, or forced
+     to revise terminology,
+  4. feed durable findings back into Claims.md, Terminology.md, OpenQuestions.md,
+     and concept notes when warranted.
+
+This line runs in parallel with the main research phases and the eventual paper.
+It may delay or reshape the Soul Frame paper when a strong challenge appears.
+
+
+What a dialogue produces
+------------------------
+Each selected work gets its own subdirectory under:
+
+  research/paper-dialogues/<NNN>-<author-short-slug>/
+
+Recommended contents:
+
+  bibliographic-note.md
+      Full citation, language, access path, genre, one-paragraph abstract
+      in the paper's own vocabulary (not yet Soul Frame translation).
+
+  reading-notes.md
+      Section-by-section or claim-by-claim notes while reading.
+      Prefer short quotations with page numbers where available.
+
+  commentary.md
+      Structured comparative essay:
+        - paper thesis
+        - Soul Frame translation
+        - agreements
+        - tensions / challenges
+        - open questions raised for Soul Frame
+        - proposed follow-ups (claims, TEs, terminology edits)
+
+  support-challenge-matrix.md
+      Table mapping paper claims -> Soul Frame concepts ->
+      support | challenge | orthogonal | unclear
+      with brief rationale.
+
+Optional:
+
+  glossary-bridge.md
+      Term-by-term map (paper term <-> Soul Frame term).
+
+  excerpts.md
+      Longer excerpts reserved for fair-use/private working notes only;
+      do not publish copyrighted text beyond fair quotation practice.
+
+
+Method (standing procedure)
+---------------------------
+For each paper:
+
+  Step 1 — Bibliographic lock
+      Fix citation, edition, language, and what counts as the unit of analysis
+      (whole book vs chapter vs essay).
+
+  Step 2 — Internal reconstruction
+      State the paper's problem, method, main claims, and conclusion *without*
+      Soul Frame jargon. Misrepresentation here invalidates the dialogue.
+
+  Step 3 — Vocabulary bridge
+      For each key term in the paper, note nearest Soul Frame terms and
+      mismatches (false friends).
+
+  Step 4 — Support / challenge pass
+      Explicitly mark:
+        SUPPORT   — strengthens a Soul Frame claim or definition
+        CHALLENGE — pressures revision, rename, split, or abandonment
+        EXTEND    — adds a useful distinction Soul Frame lacked
+        ORTHOGONAL — interesting but outside current scope
+        UNCLEAR   — needs rereading or secondary sources
+
+  Step 5 — Feedback into instruments
+      If a challenge is serious, open or update:
+        - OpenQuestions.md
+        - Claims.md (evidence / contradicting literature)
+        - concepts/*.md
+        - ThoughtExperiments.md (if a new edge case appears)
+      Do not silently rewrite Terminology to absorb the paper.
+
+  Step 6 — Close the dialogue
+      Commentary status: draft | reviewed | integrated
+      Note which Soul Frame instruments were updated (if any).
+
+
+Comparison focus (Soul Frame side)
+----------------------------------
+Always ask at least:
+
+  - What counts as a system / individual / being?
+  - Body / Mind / Soul triad: fit, force-fit, or reject?
+  - Consciousness: first-person vs third-person recognition
+  - Identity / continuity / lineage
+  - Personhood (descriptive / social / moral / legal)
+  - Recognition and co-adaptive modeling
+  - Implications for artificial beings, Sp., Gh.
+
+
+Naming convention
+-----------------
+  NNN-author-short-slug/
+
+Examples:
+  001-deppert-evolution-des-bewusstseins/
+  002-park-generative-agents/
+
+NNN is a local sequence number in this directory, not a claim ID.
+
+
+Relation to other research dirs
+-------------------------------
+  research/foundations/     long thematic notes
+  research/paper-dialogues/ one-paper comparative commentaries (this line)
+  sources/bibliography.md   index entries for durable citations
+  sources/source-notes/     optional short notes linked from bibliography
+
+After a dialogue matures, add a bibliography entry under sources/bibliography.md
+with pointer path back here.
