§0 — Hook
The work-pool schema that runs the paragraf project names three work types:
spec , package , and issue-bucket . Only two of the three have a defined
process. The title word is earned — the findings were triaged. The process that
did the triaging is not yet written down.
The first article introduced a methodology that produced a working library —
four layers, twelve packages, over thirty thousand lines of code — in two weeks.
It also described the gaps that needed to close.
Two parallel improvements happened in the one week that followed. The first was
formalization: the practice that lived in one operator's head became a document
set, a machine-consumable instruction set, a work registry with an explicit state
machine, four context files per package, a decision lifecycle, archive procedures.
The methodology stopped being a discipline and became an apparatus — a structured
set of documents and protocols that an LLM can read and follow without the operator
present for every step.
