# MASTER-CONTEXT **Written by:** [orchestrator | orchestrator-fork] on [date] **Re-verify guidance:** re-anchor facts older than ~[N] commits (run `context verify --milestone`); spot-check any `[STALE]` annotations before trusting them. ## Milestone thesis [The bet this milestone makes, in a paragraph.] ## Topology - [Repo/tree] — [what lives here, branch/deploy rules, read-only?] ## Standing rules 1. [Non-negotiable rule] ## Load-bearing verified facts - [Fact that many phases depend on] [anchor: src/example.js:42 "exact substring from the file"] ## Protect list - [Capability/behavior that must not regress] — [why it matters] ## Process **Re-anchor (post-compaction / resume first act):** read MASTER-CONTEXT (this file) + the active phase capsule + the last phase SUMMARY, then run `context verify` and spot-check the flagged anchors before trusting the capsule. **Curation (`/gsd:context master`):** re-bound this file to ~150 lines, supersede dead facts (append/replace, never silently drop what's still true), push depth into deep docs, and refresh Key references so nothing below the index goes unread. ## Key references - `research/SUMMARY.md` — [the milestone's grounding research; read before planning cross-cutting phases] - `docs/…` — [deep design / investigation doc; what decision it backs]
