Revision History — Session 21

Session 21 — March 21, 2026

Summary

Established a new batch working method for the Decision Review. Rather than 1 file per session, resolved ~30 files in a single session by batching decisions, with the user approving or redirecting in real time. Also extracted the creative themes driving the user’s decisions into documented principles now held in where-we-left-off.md.

Relationship frontmatter (neighbors) was added to every file touched — combining the two parallel tracks into a single pass.

Method Going Forward

  • 20+ Decision Review files per session
  • I recommend based on established lore themes; user approves or redirects
  • Clear calls resolved autonomously in batches; edge cases flagged
  • neighbors frontmatter added to every touched file simultaneously

Files Resolved

~30 files from ashkel-verge.md through frost-bite-tundra.md. See decision-log/2026-03-21.md for full list and individual decisions.

Next Session

Continue Decision Review from glacial-spikes.md. Apply the same batch approach.


Sessions 22–24 — March 21, 2026

  • Session 22: glacial-spikes through ironmaw-crag (~30 files)
  • Session 23: jorakk-und through land-of-karskaro (11 files)
  • Session 24: loft-serreen through the-cloud-breaker-chasm (39 files)
