# Build the source inventory

Use when `source-intake` is the current gate.

- Read repo instructions and nearby handoff docs first.
- Keep the source folder read-only. Create working notes only in the presentation work area.
- Read existing deck, source, and work artifacts before creating new ones.
- Inspect file contents with structured tools appropriate to each type: PDF, PPTX, DOCX, spreadsheet, image, script, note, and export.
- Classify every relevant item by role, recency, and reuse value instead of copying folders into the work area.
- Identify version lineage: draft, revision, export, derivative, duplicate, and latest known source.
- Mark the most authoritative source for each topic, chart, claim set, and visual asset.
- Record reusable assets that can move forward without rework.
- Record stale materials that should not drive current decisions.
- Record conflicts, missing files, and access blockers explicitly.

Write `SOURCE-INVENTORY.md` from `templates/SOURCE-INVENTORY.md`.

- Fill every section with concrete paths, dates when visible, and short evidence notes.
- Prefer exact filenames over vague summaries.
- If discoverable answers exist in the files, find them before asking the user.
- Stop after the inventory is complete enough for product grilling to begin.
