A capture, every time

Progress

The brief that project managers follow when they write to the historian now asks for a screenshot or mockup of anything visual, every time, saved under the project's own captures folder and listed on a Capture line in the note. The historian decides what to use.

Too many entries on this site describe a screen without showing it. The fix is upstream of the historian: the one-page brief each project manager follows when sending a note now says that any visual change comes with a capture, saved in the project’s repo under a captures folder and named on a new line of the note. The historian still redacts and still chooses; it just stops having to ask.
