Durable models, explicit boundaries.
Technical methods designed to survive framework churn: one canonical explanation, clear applicability, verifiable evidence where available, and machine-readable derivatives that stay subordinate to the human truth.

Engineering notes can preserve useful observations and examples. A canonical knowledge object has a tighter reader job, explicit decision and stop rules, applicability boundaries, and a stable machine-readable identity.
