Retention Guidance
This starter is not legal, compliance, accounting, or records-management advice. Replace these notes with profile-appropriate retention rules before production use.
Defaults
| Category | Suggested handling |
|---|---|
| Source files | Keep originals in the authoritative source system. |
| Generated mirrors | Regenerate from source evidence when stale. |
| Curated notes | Archive when superseded or no longer useful. |
| Scratch work | Keep outside committed history and prune regularly. |
Archival Process
- Confirm the material is no longer active.
- Move retained curated material under
_archive/when appropriate. - Set frontmatter
status: archivedwhen the profile supports that state. - Do not delete source evidence without explicit human approval.
Privacy And Sensitivity
- Keep private or regulated data outside this public scaffold.
- Never store secrets or credentials in the vault.
- Keep source-backed conclusions citeable to source paths or generated mirrors.
