The repository is furnished rather than scaffolded — every file has content and a reason, which is the distinction the spec itself draws when it says to resist building init as a scaffolder. Four externals fetched and locked under .loom/externals/: bedrock, externals, annotating, cart. Copies, not to be edited, with a usages file beside cart casting three of its four roles and leaving one open. The one left open is what isolates work in progress, and the usages file says how we cast it wrong once and why the belief was more useful than a preference would have been. The spec moves out of the README and into the cart as a specimen, which makes it discard-by-default — that is a stronger statement of "argue with this" than a sentence asking them to. bedrock and externals stay non-discardable, since accommodating them is what makes this a loom tool. The daily says where we expect to be wrong: whether check can say anything useful about a 404, and whether hash-as-lock survives a fetch that normalises anything, which we have only tested against gitea.

loom-cli
Not built. A small tool for the operations a person should not do by hand: fetch a document you depend on, and find out when it changed.
Start in the cart: .loom/cart/current/ — a round is
open, the conventions are already fetched under .loom/externals/, and the spec
is a specimen, which means you may discard it.
bedrock and externals are not discardable. Read them as given; argue with
everything else.
