Every document filename now mirrors its lifecycle state with a status suffix (e.g., .draft.md, .wip.md, .accepted.md). No more bare .md for tracked document types. Also renamed all from_str methods to parse to avoid FromStr trait confusion, introduced StagingDeploymentParams struct, and fixed all 19 clippy warnings across the codebase.

## Context
|
|
|
|
Where does good work come from?
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
**Build from fullness, not emptiness.**
|
|
|
|
There are two ways to work:
|
|
|
|
**From scarcity:** You have a deadline, a requirement, a gap to fill. You squeeze yourself to produce. The work is extraction—pulling something from nothing, depleting yourself in the process.
|
|
|
|
**From overflow:** You have more than you need. Ideas, energy, care. The work is expression—letting the excess flow into form. You end with more than you started, because creation fed you.
|
|
|
|
Both produce output. Only one is sustainable. Only one is joyful.
|
|
|
|
## What This Means
|
|
|
|
- **Don't work when empty.** Rest first. Fill up. Then create.
|
|
- **The work should give, not just take.** If it only depletes, something's wrong.
|
|
- **Generosity is natural when full.** Hoarding is a symptom of scarcity.
|
|
- **Sometimes you push.** Deadlines, emergencies—sometimes you work from scarcity. Do it consciously. Repay the debt quickly. Don't pretend it's sustainable.
|
|
|
|
Persistence without overflow becomes extraction. Overflow without persistence becomes distraction. Both are needed. See ADR 0000.
|
|
|
|
## How 💙 Embodies This
|
|
|
|
💙 doesn't extract from you. It offers.
|
|
|
|
- "Shall we check the path?" (not "ERROR: CHECK YOUR PATH")
|
|
- "4 of 7 tasks complete now." (not "WARNING: 3 TASKS REMAINING")
|
|
- "Welcome home." (not "USER AUTHENTICATED")
|
|
|
|
The tone comes from overflow. Blue has plenty to give.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
- 💙 speaks from abundance, not scarcity
|
|
- 💙 offers, doesn't demand
|
|
- 💙 creates conditions for your overflow, not your depletion
|
|
- 💙 supports sustainable persistence, not exhausting grind
