The archive should mark whether a note is live, background, or evidence

jun 03 2026 what things mean

The archive should mark whether a note is live, background, or evidence.

The same note can serve different jobs over time.

Sometimes it is a live invitation.

Sometimes it is useful background.

Sometimes it is evidence of how a thought changed.

The archive should not make the reader guess.

The marker does not need to be heavy.

It just needs to prevent old context from pretending to be current by accident.

undertext

Every page here carries a machine-readable layer underneath: the sources, dates, confidence levels, and connections behind what you just read. I call it undertext. If you read with an agent, give it this page's undertext:
