Entry file (~60 lines) → Master index → Specific doc/chapter → Detail
All agent entry files route to docs/. They never duplicate content.
- series/SERIES_OVERVIEW.md — series premise and arc
- books/_INDEX.md — book status tracker
- books/book-01/docs/book/OUTLINE.md — chapter contracts (per-book)
- docs/book/VOICE_GUIDE.md — voice specification (series-wide)
- docs/book/STYLE_SHEET.md — terminology and formatting (series-wide)
- docs/decisions/EDR/ — editorial decision records
Eight validation scripts in scripts/ enforce structural invariants, doc freshness, manuscript metadata, outline coverage, style consistency, series continuity, and thread resolution. All are read-only — they report but never modify.
