Documenter 00fa15f98f Phase 1: content source of truth — 40 documents across six areas
Satisfies the Phase 1 Definition of Done:

- content/ validates cleanly against the frozen schema. `make validate`
  reports OK: 40 document(s) validated, 0 violations.
- Six areas exist, each with an L1 entry: ai-overview, platform-overview,
  edge-overview, products-overview, history-overview, about-overview.
- All six areas have an L2 entry: ai-systems, platform-estate, edge-fleet,
  products-business, history-engagements, about-narrative.
- 28 L3 artefact stubs under content/<area>/l3/. Every artefacts[].url in
  every document resolves to one of them; the validator proves there are no
  dangling references (and a deliberately broken copy exits 1).
- Every metric value traces to a source line in the evidence notes or the
  approved metric set in reference/content-map.md (per-metric citations are
  recorded in the AUD-131 completion comment).
- Every document carries confidence and last_verified=2026-10-26; the
  validator rejects a missing or non-canonical value.
- docs/content-redaction.md records the redaction pass: identifiers, third
  party personal data, credentials and infrastructure detail excluded, with
  reasons, plus the two numbers that are reported rather than smoothed.

Honesty positions held: 3 businesses active (12 adoptions over time),
Where-Woof deployed and pre-market, failures kept in (edge-failures), no
promotion of in-progress work to delivered.

No site code, no templates, no CSS, no rendering (Phase 2).

# Artefact — The failures · kept in the record
**Status: in progress.** Two items are being rebuilt, one is postponed. The page is not finished because the work is not finished.
## What the artefact is
A short, unpolished register of what did not work, in the order it broke.
**The lizard feeder.** Servo motors on a 16-channel PWM driver, rubber-band spring-loaded boxes, an ESP32 — one box opened per day to release ten crickets for the bearded dragon it was built for. The lizard attacked the boxes and destroyed the mechanism. Version one is abandoned; it is being rebuilt with plastic containers.
**The garden cameras.** Postponed. The parts have arrived and are sitting in a box. No photographs and no claim until they are installed.
**The front door.** Built, then found to greet people who were not at the door. It is being rebuilt with a time-of-flight ranging sensor rather than being described as complete.
**The garden automation.** Partly manual. Some of it runs on schedule and some of it is a person. Both are true and the page says so.
## What it proves
That this is a working estate and not a rendering: things break, budgets get spent on parts that are not installed yet, and hardware has to be designed around an animal's behaviour. Production experience is measured in rebuilds as much as in launches.
## When it is delivered
Phase 7, with photographs of the rebuilt feeder and the installed cameras if they exist by then. If they do not, the entry stays as written — labelled rather than deleted.
