+# Reference Pilot Decision
+
+Date: 2026-05-14
+
+## Decision
+
+Use a small purpose-built corpus as the first maintained reference infospace.
+
+## Rationale
+
+`markitect-main/examples/infospace-with-history/` remains the primary migration
+candidate for a larger pilot, but it contains a large public-domain book corpus
+and substantial generated output. Pulling it in before the lifecycle and
+evaluation baseline exists would make the new repo noisy before it is useful.
+
+The bootstrap pilot uses this repo's own PRD/FRS intent as a compact corpus. It
+proves the expected file layout, artifact manifest, relationship inspection,
+collection metrics, and viability thresholding with minimal bulk.
+
+## Follow-up
+
+After the baseline is stable, migrate a pruned Wealth of Nations/VSM fixture or
+a similarly representative slice from `markitect-main` under a separate
+workplan.
