# Methodology

- Use `note` for ideas, concepts, and synthesis.
- Use `reference` for external sources and classify them with subtype `article`, `tool`, or `spec`.
- Use `task` for follow-up work that should enter the work queue.
- Use `garden_seed` for low-ceremony capture when speed matters more than completeness.
- Keep notes atomic and connected. Prefer explicit wikilinks and `domain/scope` tags.
- Prefer `list_tags` before inventing new tags in an established vault.
- Run `reweave` after important note creation so the graph stays connected.
- Treat accepted decision notes as immutable except for metadata updates.
