Use this guide for short, time-scoped notes in radar/.

What radar is for

Radar notes are for updates that are useful now but too unstable for evergreen lab pages. Good fits:
  • framework or protocol watch items
  • short market updates
  • category shifts
  • emerging terminology worth tracking

Placement and naming

  • Place notes in radar/
  • Use date-scoped filenames such as 2026-04-protocol-watch.md

Required shape

Start from Radar Note Template. Required sections:
  • Summary
  • Why It Matters
  • Evidence And Sources
  • Signals To Watch
  • Update Log

Working rules

  • Keep the note short and scannable.
  • Make the time boundary explicit in the title, filename, or content.
  • Cite concrete sources instead of vague market impressions.
  • Do not turn a radar note into an evergreen tutorial page.

Completion standard

A radar note is ready for review when it:
  • is clearly time-scoped
  • has enough evidence to justify the signal
  • avoids oversized background explanation
  • links to a related evergreen page when relevant
