## Domain Guide

When in doubt about where a question belongs: if it constrains **how we build**, it's architecture. If it defines **what the player observes or knows**, it's perception. If it defines **narrative, NPCs, dialogue, or setting**, it's content. If it defines **what we ship or how big it is**, it's scope.

*96 questions. Last updated: 2026-04-05 (full recount — architecture index corrected, 4 scope questions closed).*
