The repo outgrew a single-project layout: the reusable form-language
template and the draft paper about the method were mixed in with
Ecuador-specific ref/narratives/docs, and a second real project (Harbor
House) had been growing inside templates/examples/ despite no longer
being just a template demo. Split into:
- method/ - the generalized form-language prompt template and the
paper about the method, project-agnostic
- projects/ecuador-museum/ - the original counter-proposal (ref/,
narratives/, docs/, unchanged in content)
- projects/harbor-house/ - promoted out of templates/examples/, now a
peer project with its own ref/narratives/docs, including previously
untracked pattern subset, narrative, and illustration material
Root CLAUDE.md now covers the shared method and repo-wide conventions;
each project gets its own CLAUDE.md with project-specific brief,
inputs, and status. Updated all internal path references (paper.md,
outline.md, per-project CLAUDE.md, settings.local.json). Dropped stray
scratch files superseded by proper copies (all.txt, the already-
converted pattern-language PDF).

docs/ is Ecuador-specific per CLAUDE.md; this Harbor House (Sheffield)
document is an unrelated worked example of form-language-prompt-template.md,
kept as evidence the template generalizes beyond its Ecuador origin.

Distills the two-step Salingaros prompting process (docs/salingaros-form-language-prompt.md)
that produced ref/Ecuadorian_Form_Language_Grammar.md into a reusable, placeholder-driven
prompt template for any region/site/typology, in templates/. Addresses failure modes not
present in the original worked example: unverified "search" claims, region-scale incoherence,
missing buildability/code-compliance disclaimer, and unscoped cultural-sensitivity risk around
sacred/ceremonial motifs.
Closes ecuador-vay.

Salingaros ran his own independent version of the pattern-language method
(narrative, ChatGPT images, process-report article) in parallel with our
narratives/ -> docs/counter-proposal.md pipeline. Records what each new
file is and how it relates to our deliverable, and removes the earlier,
superseded draft of his process-report article.

The Method, Deliverable, Reference material, and Status sections were
written before docs/counter-proposal.md, docs/illustration-prompts.md, and
the embedded illustrations existed, and still said image generation was
"out of scope" and narratives were the sole deliverable. Brings these
sections up to date: we write image prompts and embed externally-generated
images, docs/ now holds the public presentation document and its docx
export process, and Status reflects the pipeline being complete.

Completes the full pipeline from CLAUDE.md's Process section: official brief
distilled to genuine human-needs facts with full National Collection detail
(ref/brief-condensed.md); named failures mined from the critique transcript
and mapped to countering patterns (ref/critique-failures.md); shared design
invariants extracted from Salingaros's contributed narrative and reconciled
against the brief (ref/project-chassis.md); and all four stakeholder
narratives drafted and cross-checked for pattern/brief/grammar fidelity and
mutual consistency (narratives/01-visitor.md through 04-community.md).
