Methodology layer for the ASK family of projects.
This repo carries the cross-project method for designing systems that build systems: doctrine, topology, lineage, source-of-truth structure, and worked-example explanations at method altitude.
It does not carry execution-protocol assets. Those live in apexSolarKiss/control-surface — AGENTS.md rules, templates, prompts, project-instantiation workflow, and worked-example workflow notes.

The methodology layer articulates the cross-project method; the execution-protocol layer encodes calibrated rules that operationalize the method per session; project repos apply both to concrete domains.
docs/method.md carries the primary method articulation. Standalone doctrine docs and method-altitude worked-example explanations have landed in docs/ and examples/; the article-line index lives at docs/articles.md. An illustrative topology / relative-externality diagram has landed in docs/diagrams/; the diagram is illustrative, and repo prose remains source truth. Lineage remains a candidate for later PRs as substrate earns it.
