[Sweep — P## · P## · P## | Explore §N | Research: topic] — opened YYYY-MM-DD

Mode: side · the rituals this board runs

Project: (the repo this board lives in — work outside it gets handed over, not done)

Session title: (set at open and recorded here — Phase name · mode; side phases never split; ask only when the title is not derivable)

What other boards found on this board's ground

Any board may write here; only this one drains it. An entry names what was found or changed, where, which board found it and when, and what this session owes. A note is never an item — read this section at your open, and where a ruling or a check is owed, author your own item from it, then delete the entry. Undrained entries hold the close (CONTRIBUTING.md → Rules shared by all modes).

  • (what was found or changed) · Where: (file or route) · From: (board), (date) · Owes: (judge | verify | nothing, FYI)

Notes

[Anything surfaced that isn't done here: new punch items added, scope flagged back, overlap decisions.]

Verify at close

[The in-chat handoff (CONTRIBUTING → the side phase's close, step 1): what the PO checks before the board is deleted. Code/UI → who's looking → /url → what to expect per changed surface; research → the doc summary + load-bearing findings. Plus ## Raised drained — the section empty before the board goes. Delete this section's prompt text as you fill it.]

Next

[The opening line for whatever comes next, written at close: the starter shape and mode, the name, one sentence of why, and where its context already sits. A pointer, not a briefing; "nothing next" is a real answer (CONTRIBUTING → shared rules).]
