Doctrine and briefs: nothing that exists is sacred, the operator's words included

Browse source 
Deference now covers content, canon, data and her own words; rulings say
whether her words decide, illustrate or sketch; creative passes develop and
challenge their inputs. Ruling aetheria-fauna:ruling:fauna-bestiary-open.

@ -82,6 +82,20 @@ said; Self's reading goes in a question, or is clearly marked as Self's (three
supersedes on 2026-10-07 came from text she never said). A changed ruling carries a resolution superseding the old one,
in the same batch.
Status, not only words: a ruling's text says whether her words decide,
illustrate or sketch. Examples she gives are examples, never a closed list, and
a remark made while thinking aloud is advice input, not a ruling at all. The
same holds for a campaign's title and a target: they name the problem, not her
first examples of it. (aetheria-fauna, 2026-10-13: her "krill, minnows, sharks,
whales" became the campaign title, the target and every brief, and the lore pass
wrote exactly those four. Operator: "I mentioned krill, minnows, whales and
sharks and that ended up being the whole ecosystem somehow".)
A creative or content pass (lore, design text, catalog content, art direction)
is briefed to develop and challenge: its inputs, her sketches and the existing
canon alike, are drafts. Its report ends with what it added beyond its inputs
and where it would change them, her ideas and existing content included.
Triage each open finding: a Hands brief, then a Fixed resolution admitted by
Self only after a Soul pass on the fix's report holds; a question raised in the
finding; a follow_up plus a Deferred resolution; or a Recorded or Withdrawn

Self, session `self-2026-10-14-ag`.
Evidence. aetheria-fauna: four animals the operator named while thinking aloud became the campaign title, the target and every brief, and the lore pass (branch `eureka/aetheria-fauna-lore`) wrote exactly those four and built on her lore remarks as finished canon. Operator, 2026-10-14: "the agent again made the classic mistake of assuming my suggestions are gospel and my ideas complete"; "it's not just my words that aren't sacred, it's the project's existing content and code". Eureka's curb on deference worked at forks only; admitting remarks as rulings and relaying words verbatim hardened them, and the rapport memory saying she thinks aloud reached no worker. Ruling `aetheria-fauna:ruling:fauna-bestiary-open`.
What changed. Doctrine's failure-shape bullet on deference to existing code now covers content, canon, data and her own words, with the authorship-boundary exception. The Self brief section: a ruling says whether her words decide, illustrate or sketch; campaign titles and targets name the problem, not her examples; creative and content passes are briefed to develop and challenge and report what they added and would change. `SKILL.md` step 2 points there.
