# Docs map

Where human and agent documentation lives. **Do not** invent a third
tree for the same facts.

| Path | Audience | Role |
|------|----------|------|
| [../README.md](../README.md) | Everyone | What Nomarchy is, install, options tables |
| [VISION.md](VISION.md) | Maintainers + agents | Product north star toward **v1.0** and beyond — themes, not a task queue |
| [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md) | Maintainers + agents | Design/decision records + shipped log (historical ✓) |
| [HARDWARE.md](HARDWARE.md) | Users + agents | Firmware, profiles, drivers, unsupported machines |
| [TESTING.md](TESTING.md) | Maintainers + agents | Verification ladder, honesty rule, ISO/VM recipes |
| [RECOVERY.md](RECOVERY.md) | Users | Broken theme/desktop/boot → undo |
| [OVERRIDES.md](OVERRIDES.md) | Users | Downstream Nix overrides |
| [MIGRATION.md](MIGRATION.md) | Users | Existing NixOS → Nomarchy without reinstall |
| [OMARCHY.md](OMARCHY.md) | Users | Coming from Omarchy — bindings/theme/install/config map |

| [../agent/README.md](../agent/README.md) | **Executable** agent loop state: BACKLOG, LOOP, MEMORY, … |

## How work flows

```
VISION  (what we want the product to feel like)
   │
   ▼  human triages slices into…
BACKLOG (what's next, ordered — agents execute only this)
   │
   ▼  lasting design notes after ship →
ROADMAP ✓ entries
```

Agents **do not** implement directly from VISION or ROADMAP. They take
the top actionable item in `agent/BACKLOG.md` (see `agent/LOOP.md`).
They **may** append PROPOSED pitches that reference `VISION § …` or
`ROADMAP § …`.
