How each piece is made

The workflow is the picture (Dinis, 10 November 2026). Each article and interview has one graph: a lane for every actor, a dot for every step in time order, and a thicker line where the work changes hands (a draft to a review, a review to a check, a check to publication and its signature). It is drawn from this repository's own history: a step is a commit that touched a file of the piece, with its actor taken from the commit's Agent: trailer. The same graph sits at the foot of each article, under "How this piece was made".

It shows what the record says in public: the humans' own steps (an interview taken by a person, a manual copy) appear only where a commit records them, and the sealed inboxes are never read. A piece with few steps is a piece whose history is short, or one whose work is not yet in the record.

The briefs are drawn the same way, as pipelines: each trail starts at Dinis's voice brief (the moment is read from the brief's id) and follows every commit that carries the same Brief: trailer, across the conductors, the builders and the reviewers, as the team site's pipeline page describes. Pick a brief in the list.
