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.
Linked ASK repos are citations to worked examples, lineage surfaces, or layer relationships unless explicitly stated otherwise. They do not imply code dependency, schema import, aesthetic inheritance, or project-specific doctrine import.
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.
