## Entry evidence and required records

Before the procedure starts, an operator must identify the source, owner, scope, and required records below. Missing evidence holds the guide.

- field-guide:contact-histories

- source-labelled note records for each observed contact event

- source-labelled file references for supporting material

- draft message records when communication is proposed

- approval records for consequential or ambiguous interpretations

- todo records for unresolved follow-up and review deadlines

## Intended operators and ownership

- Wick

- research operators

- outreach reviewers

- message drafters

- response triage reviewers

Being listed as an intended operator does not grant execution or publication authority.

## Conditions that hold the guide before entry

- Treating a named person, organization, or channel as verified when the source does not establish it.

- Collapsing multiple contacts into one event and losing provenance or chronology.

- Filling missing dates, identities, intent, or response states through inference.

- Converting a draft into a claim of sent, received, delivered, or provider-connected communication.

- Exposing private contact history through public documentation or unrestricted search.

- Treating a local prototype or indexed route as proof of a connected production feature.

- Using unreviewed interpretations in outreach or campaign decisions.

- Failing to preserve conflicting revisions or source hashes.

- Allowing an overdue or unresolved item to disappear from the working record.
