Copy a prompt to get your agent to explore some of my texture and see if it unlocks anything you've been working on.
The current lens should decide what belongs near the surface.
The archive can be deep.
The first read should not be.
Someone should be able to arrive and feel:
this is what is alive now,
this is where I can start,
this is where I can go deeper if I want.
That requires selection.
Not everything in the archive deserves the same surface area.
The current lens is the part that chooses without pretending the rest does not exist.
