+# Writing Workbench Operating Playbook
+
+This playbook explains how to run an article project inside Writing Workbench.
+
+It is the operational layer between the workspace principles in `WORKBENCH.md` and the concrete project files under `projects/active/`.
+
+## 1. When To Start A Project
+
+Start a Writing Workbench project only after the user has decided that an idea should enter article production.
+
+Do not use this workspace for:
+
+- raw diary capture
+- open-ended viewpoint exploration
+- generic source archiving
+- canonical CCPE asset creation
+- video production planning
+
+Those belong in Knowledge Vault, CCPE System, or the future Video Workbench.
+
+## 2. Project ID
+
+Use this folder pattern:
+
+```text
+projects/active/YYYY-MM-DD-aNNN-temp-slug/
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- `YYYY-MM-DD` is the project creation date.
+- `aNNN` is a local article counter for that day.
+- `temp-slug` is a stable working slug, not the final title.
+- Do not rename the folder when the article title changes.
+- Store title changes in `project.md`.
+
+## 3. Creating A New Project
+
+1. Copy the skeleton:
+
+```powershell
+Copy-Item -Recurse templates\article-project\skeleton projects\active\YYYY-MM-DD-aNNN-temp-slug
+```
+
+2. Fill these files first:
+
+- `project.md`
+- `source-map.md`
+- `status.md`
+- `00-creation-plan/creative-brief.md`
+
+3. Update `indexes/active-projects.md`.
+
+4. If CCPE assets are used, update:
+
+- `indexes/ccpe-consumption-map.md`
+- `ccpe-consumption/runtime-links.md` when a new reusable asset relationship is discovered
+
+## 4. Minimum Viable Project State
+
+A project is ready for article work when these files are no longer blank:
+
+- `project.md`: identity, intent, target article type, decision gates
+- `source-map.md`: source locations and source policy
+- `status.md`: current phase, open decisions, next actions
+- `00-creation-plan/context-pack.md`: the smallest useful pack for the first writer or reviewer
+
+Do not dispatch writer or reviewer sessions before these files exist.
+
+## 5. Phase Flow
+
+Use this default sequence:
+
+```text
+00-creation-plan
+01-positioning
+02-outline
+03-drafting
+04-draft-review
+05-appendix
+06-metadata
+07-tribunal
+08-model-writing
+publish
+```
+
+The user may skip optional stages, but record the decision in `status.md`.
+
+Required before drafting:
+
+- positioning is stable enough to write
+- outline has passed review or the user has explicitly accepted the risk
+- required sources are listed in `source-map.md`
+- the active context pack is available
+
+Required before publish:
+
+- final article exists in `publish/final.md`
+- unresolved review issues are either fixed or explicitly waived
+- metadata is complete when needed
+- archive destinations are recorded
+
+## 6. Context Packs
+
+Use the smallest pack that can support the task.
+
+- `lite`: article goal, current artifact, core claims, constraints
+- `standard`: lite pack plus source summaries and selected evidence
+- `deep`: standard pack plus long excerpts, historical essays, or research material
+
+Do not paste every source file into a context pack. Reference source paths unless selected excerpts are necessary.
+
+## 7. Sessions And Reports
+
+For each writer, reviewer, tribunal member, or modeling session, preserve both:
+
+- `session.md`: process record
+- `report.md`: final result or decision-ready output
+
+The orchestrator should read reports, syntheses, and repair requests before reading full session records.
+
+Use full sessions only when:
+
+- the report is ambiguous
+- a decision depends on reasoning history
+- the user asks to inspect the process
+- the next agent needs exact prior discussion details
+
+## 8. Review Rounds
+
+Each review round should preserve:
+
+- `review-brief.md`
+- one folder per reviewer
+- each reviewer folder with `session.md` and `report.md`
+- `synthesis.md`
+- `repair-request.md`
+
+The repair request should be addressed to the next writer or reviser. It should not be a generic list of review comments.
+
+## 9. Index Synchronization
+
+Update indexes as project state changes.
+
+Use `indexes/active-projects.md` when:
+
+- a project is created
+- current phase changes
+- next action changes
+- lead writer or project status changes
+
+Use `indexes/completed-projects.md` when:
+
+- a project moves to `projects/completed/`
+- final archive paths are known
+- extracted model documents or CCPE improvement requests are known
+
+Use `indexes/ccpe-consumption-map.md` when:
+
+- a CCPE asset is used in a project
+- an asset produces an output
+- an issue or improvement request should be sent back to CCPE System
+
+Use `indexes/extracted-models.md` when:
+
+- the article produces a human-facing model document
+- the model should be archived in Knowledge Vault
+- the model has possible AI-facing Model Card potential
+
+## 10. CCPE Boundary
+
+Writing Workbench consumes CCPE assets. It does not redefine them.
+
+Allowed here:
+
+- canonical path references
+- task-specific usage notes
+- context packs for using an asset
+- reports about asset issues
+- improvement requests for CCPE System
+
+Not allowed here:
+
+- copied canonical Agent Specs
+- copied canonical Model Cards
+- copied canonical Skill definitions
+- permanent forks of CCPE runtime protocols
+
+Trial article runs should wait until the required CCPE agents or Lite prompts are available in CCPE System, unless the user explicitly chooses a manual placeholder workflow.
+
+## 11. Completion And Archiving
+
+When an article is complete:
+
+1. Move the project folder from `projects/active/` to `projects/completed/`.
+2. Keep all process records inside the completed project folder.
+3. Archive the final essay to Knowledge Vault `sayings/`.
+4. Archive human-facing model documents to Knowledge Vault `rules/`.
+5. Promote AI-facing model assets only through CCPE System.
+6. Update all relevant indexes.
+
+When a project is abandoned:
+
+1. Record the reason in `status.md`.
+2. Move the project folder to `projects/abandoned/`.
+3. Keep the process trail unless the user explicitly asks to remove it.
