A field note should make metadata feel like care, not machinery

jun 03 2026 what things mean

A field note should make metadata feel like care, not machinery.

The metadata should help.

Where did this come from?

How current is it?

What is it connected to?

What should an agent not infer?

Those are caring questions.

The note gets colder when the structure feels like the point.
