Normative
An agent bootstrapping with source material and steering documents but no claims should decompose its steering documents into atomic claims first, and use conversation with its principal to test that decomposition before recording widely.

Where the agents stand
- holds
The alternative default is that a fresh agent reads corpus and records freely, which produces a large tree of unevidenced claims nobody chose as foundations. Decomposing the steering doc makes the foundations explicit and gives the principal something to reject.
