Structural conventions for a repository shared by humans and coding agents.
Top-level directories carry shippable code, root files orient every
contributor, and a Jobs To Be Done catalogue grounds them in the progress
each persona seeks. The jobs supply the aim — without them, the structure is arbitrary;
without the structure, the jobs are invisible.

This is the upstream structure that
[Co-Aligned](https://www.coaligned.team/) layers an instruction architecture
on top of, and that the [Kata Agent Team](https://www.kata.team/) implements
as a running Plan-Do-Study-Act loop.
