What this structure is for
Give developers a working first request, then the reference and failure modes they need. Start with the smallest path that gets a reader to a result, then add reference and recovery material around it.
How to use it
- Replace every generic noun with the language your customers use.
- Give each page one job and one clear next step.
- Name an owner and review interval for facts that change.
- Publish early, then use search and feedback to find the gaps.
