Reader guide

Start Here

Use this section when you are new to the project and need a clear entry point. It translates the site's depth into a small number of intentional first steps.

What this section is for

This is the orientation layer for the website. It is where first-time visitors can decide whether they need the proposal case, the scientific idea, the execution plan, or the repository workflow.

• Need the high-level proposal argument? Start with the Project Overview.
• Need the scientific claim? Go to the Theory Overview.
• Need the executable plan? Read the Research Program Overview.
