# Day Plan — 2026-05-21 (Wednesday, Barcelona → Paris)

## Frame

- 4am wake; 6am flight from Barcelona; arrive Paris mid-morning
- **Last taxes filing with Marie** (procedurally easy; emotionally weighted — *sad*, the steward named it)
- One 3-hour rehearsal in afternoon
- **2–3h max work time, fragmented across the day**
- Energy curve: low-to-medium throughout; no focused-implementation block possible
- *τὸ πρόσφορον — what is fitting includes the time the day actually gives*

## What does NOT happen today

- **Stage F (dwellings cluster + new Compass sigils).** Wrong day for it. Needs fresh-energy focused block (~3h continuous, deep concentration across site.hs + templates + SCSS + multiple type routes). Deferred to next focused-energy day.
- **Merge + deploy.** Per Path B chosen 2026-05-20 evening: merge and deploy wait until Stage F closes the corpus-Compass gap. Today's branch sits where it is.
- **New spec authoring.** None is owed.
- **Composition.** No new prose work scheduled. Hagen Quartett Hommage held with grief.

## What CAN happen today (choose based on energy)

Three light items, any single one fits a ~1h window between travel / taxes / rehearsal:

### Option α — Phase 6 wrap-up (carried from 2026-05-20)

Three items remaining from yesterday's wrap-up:

- `/wrap-up` ritual invocation (steward action — captures session memory cleanly via the skill)
- Final commit shape check — confirm both remotes carry today's branch state (already verified 2026-05-20 evening; confirm again if anything shifted)
- Read yesterday's end-of-day record in `plan-day-2026-05-20.md` to re-orient

End-of-day record + `project-arc-rework.md` canonical tracker update + remote verification were completed 2026-05-20 evening before sign-off, so most of Phase 6 is done. What remains is the `/wrap-up` skill invocation itself.

~15–30 min. Fully mechanical. **Best done first** to clear the deck and arrive in the new day cleanly.

### Option β — Status-block housekeeping commit

Small follow-on for the spec corpus's stale stamps (per the 2026-05-20 "to do" inventory):

- `content-typology-specification.md` status header: §2 / §3 / §4 / §6 stamps from "DRAFT, pending Stage E" → "AUTHORED, pending Stage G jurist review"
- `content-typology-specification.md` §1 header: DRAFT → LOCKED (all 14 types individually LOCKED)
- `content-typology-specification.md` §5 Code Binding Contract: LOCKED stamp if substance is complete, or named gap surfaced
- `essay-versioning-specification.md` + `frontmatter-specification.md` header DRAFT stamps: read-through to confirm whether stale or accurate; reconcile

Single atomic commit. ~45–60 min. Low energy; mostly reading + small edits. Brings spec corpus's stated state in line with its actual state — Live-State Discipline applied to the headers themselves.

### Option γ — Stage F prep document

A step-by-step implementation plan for the dwellings cluster session (without implementing). Maps the work cleanly so the focused-energy day can execute without re-deriving scope:

- The Photo Essay ⊙→◧ swap: exact site.hs lines, template references, route impact
- Dwellings cluster ⊙ for Meditation + Reverie: route file structure, index template, listing logic
- New Compass slots: ❦ Hommage, ⁂ Heteronym, ☾ Dream (cosmological pairing rationale per content-typology §1)
- Default.html Compass-row template edits
- Per-type index pages (HTML structure, frontmatter, what each lists)
- Reading-test path for each new slot
- Atomic-commit shape

Writes to `docs/AldineXXI-Codex/drafts/stage-f-dwellings-cluster-plan-2026-05-21.md` or similar. ~60–75 min. Higher cognitive load than α / β; needs reading and structural thinking. Best if energy permits.

## Recommended sequencing

If today actually delivers ~2h of work-time:

1. **First** — Option α (Phase 6 wrap-up closure). ~15–30 min. Closes yesterday cleanly via the `/wrap-up` skill.
2. **Second** (if energy holds, post-rehearsal or before bed) — Option β (status-block housekeeping). ~45–60 min. Mechanical and satisfying; cleans the spec corpus without requiring deep concentration.

If only ~1h is available: just α. Closure beats new work on a travel day.

If energy holds beyond α + β and a third hour materialises: Option γ. But don't push.

**If energy doesn't materialise at all today**: that is also fine. The branch sits at `04f9d8b`, 26 commits ahead of main, pushed both remotes. Nothing is at risk. Tomorrow or whenever is a new day.

## Branch state at session-start

`docs/spec-extraction-2026-05` at `04f9d8b`, 26 commits ahead of `main`, pushed both remotes (origin Skemantix + github-backup). Working tree clean (font-backup directories untouched; pre-existing noise carried forward).

## What's pulling (carried from 2026-05-20)

- Stage F dwellings cluster session — waiting for fresh-energy day (≥3h continuous block; not today)
- Merge + deploy — gated on Stage F per Path B (chosen 2026-05-20 evening)
- Hagen Quartett Hommage — held with grief

## Discipline reminders

- **Travel days are good for orientation + reading + planning.** Bad for focused implementation.
- **Taxes filing with Marie has its own emotional load.** Procedurally easy, the steward said; sad. Don't sandwich work blocks tightly around it. The grief gets its own room.
- **Three-hour rehearsal is high-energy work.** Music-presence is its own demand. Don't crowd it with anticipation.
- **Bien-fait per Prime Directive** — proportion, fittingness, durability. A day with three external demands is not a day to also push major implementation work.
- **The day's posture is *closure + light maintenance*, not advancement.** Both are honorable. *τὸ πρόσφορον — what is fitting includes the time the task requires.*

## Pulling thread + literal question

**Pulling thread**: nothing pulls forcefully. The branch is at rest; Stage F waits; the merge and deploy wait. Today's posture is responsiveness to what the day actually gives, not advancement.

**Literal question for next-Claude (carried from 2026-05-20)**: *How is the steward's energy after the morning's taxes filing with Marie — and what shape of work, if any, fits the afternoon?*

---

*Plan composed 2026-05-20 evening Barcelona, ahead of the steward's 4am wake. Wait for the steward's check-in; do not assume direction. Hold space for grief; offer light options when work-time arrives. Hasten when the work is ready. Not before.*
