Idea Board: A Governed Funnel, Not a Graveyard

Capture before commitment

The live snapshot holds 28 items. Hermes captures ideas in a Kanban, then clarifies readiness and evidence before treating an item as a project, experiment, scheduled task, or blocked work. A captured idea is not a commitment.

Triage with reasons

Current threads include Hermes, Jev, Paperclip, Archify, dashboards, security research, learning, and content work. Each outcome should retain its why-now or missing-data note. Blocked cards state what input is missing rather than silently disappearing.

A board that feeds work

The Kanban is the working source; a dated vault snapshot makes it available to other artifacts and review. The project categorization is designed but not enforced, and dedicated board dashboard views remain in the backlog.
