Generates .loom/orientation.md — what this repository depends on, where each copy
came from, and which facets sit beside it — for whoever arrives next, of any make.
One file rather than two, decided by loom's own rule. Generate what varies, adopt
what does not: the publishing half varies not at all and is already adopted, so
publication.md appears in the index like any other adopted document, in exactly the
repositories that adopted it. A second command would emit a file whose whole content
is a pointer to a file already in the tree, and would revive a noun declined when
published check went.
Restates no rule. The three moves are phrased as operations — what to run, what to
write, where — and every rule stays in the document that owns it. The .usages.md is
pointed at rather than summarised, because what depends on a document is free prose
and anything extracting a claim from prose eventually extracts it wrong. It says
nothing recorded when a document has no usages file, which is a finding rather than
an omission and is currently true of six of nine.
Byte-deterministic, pinned by a test that inserts records out of order and
generates three times. Written to .loom/orientation.md rather than inside
.loom/externals/, where check would report it as an unlocked external in every
repository using the feature.
