Field notes are not content schedule items.
That distinction matters.
A content schedule starts with the need to publish.
A field note starts with the trace of a thought.
Where did it come from?
What was it responding to?
What did it connect to?
What is clear enough to share?
What is still becoming clear?
That posture changes the artifact.
It does not need to be complete.
It does not need to win an argument.
It does not need to pretend to be evergreen.
It needs to be useful as a source trail.
The note should carry enough context for a human to enter the idea.
It should carry enough structure for an agent to understand the surrounding map.
That means dates matter.
Provenance matters.
Related ideas matter.
Boundaries matter.
The field note is not the final form.
It is the public-safe receipt for a thought that has started to matter.
