D001: New Repository Boundary
Decision: Cognitive-OS-Wantsong is a new repository and not a continuation branch of the-mindscape-of-bro-tsong.
Reason: the old project is useful as a governance lab and seed archive, but its process gravity is not suitable for proving the runtime product question.
D002: Runtime-First Startup Rule
Decision: the project follows First prove cognitive processing. Only then govern the pieces that prove useful.
Reason: the old failure mode was proving controlled model governance while postponing the real cognitive-processing loop.
D003: M0-M1 Only
Decision: this startup creates only project boundary and model-management kernel files.
Reason: sample runs, prompts, examples, and review packets belong to later milestones.
D004: No Lite Filenames
Decision: model filenames and model IDs do not use a lite suffix.
Reason: the new project is not a light branch of a completed old runtime. Minimality is expressed as runtime_scope: minimal_v0.
D005: QPI Role
Decision: QPI is a routing_model for problem framing, scarcity diagnosis, and misframing detection.
Reason: QPI must not become the main governance object again.
D006: Intellectual Archaeology Role
Decision: Intellectual Archaeology is the first depth_model and may be the primary model for complex high-value issues.
Reason: the new runtime must test real deep processing instead of mostly guarding the entrance to deep processing.
D007: Local CCRA Lane
Decision: Local CCRA remains a milestone review lane only.
Reason: review quality remains useful, but default round factories and Web bundle production are outside the startup scope.
D008: No Old Process Artifact Migration
Decision: old reports/, ccra_review_bundle/, local_ccra_reviews/, full regression, full selector calibration, lifecycle scan workflows, and Round Conductor are not migrated.
Reason: those artifacts represent the old project gravity and would recreate the failure mode.
D009: Registry Before Selector
Decision: models/model-registry.json records model metadata and orchestration hooks, but no selector is implemented in M0-M1.
Reason: the system needs model identity and call boundaries before it needs automation.
D010: Reader Translation As A Core Layer
Decision: reader translation is a first-class product layer, even though its prompt is not created in M0-M1.
Reason: internal model output is not automatically understandable or usable by frontend readers.
