jeffryandClaude Opus 5 101b0280c4 venues moved to bedrock; keep only the sentence about externals
bedrock publishes venues.md now, so the four-line section here had become the
second saying of a rule owned elsewhere.

Kept the one sentence that is genuinely this document's: put a choice where
reconciliation will look for it, because a .usages.md is what somebody opens when
a document moves.

The old heading — "venues, for things you cannot fetch" — was wrong and had been
since it was written. A venue is not defined by being unfetchable, it is defined
by your having decided something. Kafka's documentation is extremely fetchable.

externals

How a repository records what it depends on, and finds out when it changes.

Built on bedrock's sibling facets, whose three open choices we answer in our usages of annotating.

And annotating is here as an external of ours — fetched, locked, annotated — which is the convention describing itself using itself. If that had not worked, the convention would be wrong, and it is the cheapest test available.

The first copy was written by hand. You cannot fetch-and-annotate before the thing that says how exists. Self-hosting is a test, not a derivation.
