+## General
+
+**What is WFGY?**  
+A symbolic reasoning layer + diagnostic toolkit that sits *above* your stack. It measures semantic stress (ΔS), shows which layer drifted (λ_observe), and applies repair operators (BBMC/BBPF/BBCR/BBAM). You don’t need to change your infra.
+
+**Do I need a GPU?**  
+No. You can prototype on CPU with small embedding models. Rerankers and local LLMs benefit from GPU but are optional. See: [Retrieval Playbook](./retrieval-playbook.md).
+
+**License? Can I use it at work?**  
+MIT. Commercial use allowed. If you ship improvements, we welcome PRs (docs or code).
+
+**How is this different from LangChain/LlamaIndex?**  
+Those are orchestration layers. **WFGY is a reasoning firewall and diagnostic map**—it detects/repairs *semantic* failure regardless of framework.
+
+---
+
+## Setup & scope
+
+**What’s the fastest way to try it?**  
+Grab **TXT OS** and **WFGY 1.0 PDF**, paste TXT into any model, and follow the prompts in [Getting Started](./getting-started.md).
+
+**Which embedding model should I start with?**  
+General docs: `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (light) or `bge-base`. Multilingual: `bge-m3` / `LaBSE`. Keep **write/read normalization identical**. See: [Embedding vs Semantic](./embedding-vs-semantic.md).
+
+**Do I need a reranker?**  
+Only if first-stage **recall@50 ≥ 0.85** but Top-k precision is weak. Otherwise fix candidate generation. See: [Rerankers](./rerankers.md).
+
+**How big can my PDFs be?**  
+Start with a **gold set** (10–50 Q/A with citations). For ingestion, chunk by semantic sections (not fixed tokens). Verify ΔS thresholds before scaling.
+
+---
+
+## Diagnosing failures
+
+**The chunks look right but the answer is wrong—now what?**  
+Measure **ΔS(question, retrieved)**. If ≥ 0.60, fix retrieval first; if ≤ 0.45 and reasoning still fails, open **Interpretation Collapse**.  
+Links: [hallucination.md](./hallucination.md) · [retrieval-collapse.md](./retrieval-collapse.md)
+
+**Hybrid (BM25 + dense) got worse—why?**  
+Likely **Query Parsing Split** (tokenizer/analyzer drift). Unify analyzers and log per-retriever queries.  
+Link: [pattern_query_parsing_split.md](./patterns/pattern_query_parsing_split.md)
+
+**Citations bleed across sources.**  
+Enforce **per-source fences** + “cite-then-explain” schema; this is **SCU**.  
+Links: [retrieval-traceability.md](./retrieval-traceability.md) · [pattern_symbolic_constraint_unlock.md](./patterns/pattern_symbolic_constraint_unlock.md)
+
+**Fixes don’t stick after refresh.**  
+You’re seeing **Memory Desync**. Stamp `mem_rev`/`mem_hash`, gate writes, and audit traces.  
+Link: [pattern_memory_desync.md](./patterns/pattern_memory_desync.md)
+
+---
+
+## Implementation details
+
+**How do I compute ΔS quickly?**  
+Use cosine on unit-normalized sentence embeddings: `ΔS = 1 − cos(I, G)`.  
+Thresholds: `<0.40` stable · `0.40–0.60` transitional · `≥0.60` act.  
+Ground anchor `G` can be a section title/snippet you expect.
+
+**What are BBMC/BBPF/BBCR/BBAM in one line?**  
+- **BBMC** — minimize semantic residue vs anchors.  
+- **BBPF** — branch safely across multiple paths.  
+- **BBCR** — detect collapse; insert a bridge node and restart cleanly.  
+- **BBAM** — modulate attention variance to avoid entropy melt.
+
+**Where are the data shapes?**  
+See: [Data Contracts](./data-contracts.md). They’re JSON-first, easy to log, and versioned.
+
+---
+
+## Teams & Ops
+
+**How do we avoid regressions?**  
+Commit `goldset.jsonl`, measure **recall@50**, **nDCG@10**, and ΔS across PRs.  
+Links: [eval_rag_precision_recall.md](./eval/eval_rag_precision_recall.md) · [eval_semantic_stability.md](./eval/eval_semantic_stability.md)
+
+**Any privacy guidance?**  
+Yes—PII redaction, retention, access control, and provider governance patterns are here: [Privacy & Governance](./privacy-and-governance.md).
+
+---
+
+## Known limits
+
+- Extremely noisy OCR may require **manual anchors** or **char-level retrieval**.  
+- Cross-domain abstract reasoning (#11/#12) needs stronger models.  
+- Rerankers improve precision but add latency—**prove gains** via nDCG.
