Take a folder that already holds research — papers, notes, code, half-written drafts — into MAGI, without breaking what is already there.

# adopt ## When to use A folder with work already in it and no `threads/`. A project MAGI itself made is `magi migrate`, not this. ## Method 1. `magi adopt survey .` — read the folder first. It also pulls every arXiv id and DOI out of the prose, which is where most of the sources already are. 2. Collect what this conversation says about the work: papers named, claims made. Nothing there is a normal result — say "0 from the conversation". 3. `magi init` in place. It only adds; it touches nothing already there. 4. Write `{"moves": [{"from": "x", "to": "drafts/x"}]}` — others' material to `raw/`, the human's own working out to `drafts/`, code and data left alone. Shape it to MAGI: the references between the files are repaired for you. 5. Show the human the plan, then `magi adopt apply plan.json --dry-run`, then for real. `magi adopt undo` puts the files *and* the edited text back. 6. `magi ingest url <the ids>`, `magi ingest batch-run`, then `ingest`. 7. The part that matters: open what the material already claims — `magi thread new <slug> --kind proposition --title '<claim>' --purpose '<why now>' --bet unknown`. A plan index and a status board are lines and propositions already. 8. `magi index`, then `magi next`. Still "no propositions" means the folder was tidied, not adopted. ## Rules - **Never** move anything the human has not seen listed in the plan first. - **Never** put the human's own writing in `raw/`: it is re-ingested and never hand-edited
