The core loop

This is the atomic motion. Everything else is an instance of it.

1. Shadow. Granola on, join the meeting.
2. Convert. Notes → action items → drafted output.
3. Cross-check. The founder reviews the draft, not the blank page.
4. Execute. You close the loop and update the system of record.

Repeat. When a task feels big, it is just this loop run several times.

See inbox-and-meeting-shadow.md, venture-ownership.md, and the Granola pipeline.
