## 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.

- source-bound field-guide record for course-routes

- job record for Guided inquiry

- job record for Source comparison

- job record for Lesson pathways

- job record for Study records

- job record for Uncertainty marking

- one project record grouping the route and study records

- source-labelled notes for each source or claim

- to-do records for route steps and review deadlines

- approval record for any proposed route marked Needs review, Approved, or Held

- agent-log record preserving Socrates authority, work state, and receipts

## Intended operators and ownership

- Socrates

- learners

- human reviewers

- study-record owners

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

## Conditions that hold the guide before entry

- A named Socrates owner does not prove an active agent connection or execution authority.

- Indexed or prototype routes do not prove a connected web feature, provider effect, database authority, or production state.

- Source comparison may create false equivalence; preserve each source's wording, locator, revision, and uncertainty.

- Missing or stale source metadata can make a lesson pathway untraceable; hold the affected step.

- Unknown prerequisites can make a route inaccessible; record the unknown and request human review.

- Attachments may be unavailable or protected; use file references and hold upload or protected-storage assumptions.

- An approval status is a local proposal receipt, not publication or qualification.

- Deadline calculations are planning aids, not external calendar writes or reminders.

- Medical, financial, legal, safety, or other consequential course content requires domain review beyond this source-bound guide.

- Public documentation must contain useful, distinct route content; do not create doorway pages or keyword-spam pages.
