# The storyline
The storyline is the narrative of the work: what was built and decided over the last weeks, how it went, where it stands — told in order, weighted toward recent weeks. A session starts from it; the detail lives in the daily notes, the task log, memory and canvases, reached by `log_read`, `search`, `memory_get`, `canvas_get`.
**Written for a reader with no memory.** The reader is an agent that just booted: it has its rules, the brain and this page, nothing else. Every sentence has to land without the daily notes behind it.
- Real names — projects, tools, people, files, commit hashes, canvas ids — so the reader can search on from here. "the acme/website deploy review (#12)" leads somewhere; "a cold read of a stranger's repo" leads nowhere.
- No allusions, callbacks or in-jokes. A quote from the user comes with what it was about.
- Each paragraph stands alone and carries its when — a date, or "late August".
- Outcomes, not only moments: what was decided, what was left open, what comes next.
- Mistakes stay out. The notes hold them; this is the story of the work.
- A story of what happened, never what to do: no rules, instructions, preferences or notes on how the user communicates — those live in the rules files and the brain. What was decided is an event and belongs; the principle it expresses does not.
