  "summary": "Use creates both value and the best opportunity to detect staleness.",
  "kind": "protocol",
  "body": "When an important note is used for a real task or decision, check whether its source, scope and state are still adequate. If new evidence challenges it, update or supersede it and preserve the reason. Add a scheduled review only where time-sensitive risk justifies one.",
  "limits": [
    "Some safety, compliance or expiring information needs time-based review regardless of use; keep those explicit exceptions."

  "example": "A deployment checklist is checked and updated when used after a platform change instead of receiving meaningless monthly reviews when nothing changed.",

    "Current use triggered a staleness check.",
    "Source status checked where material.",
    "Scope still matches use.",
    "Contradictory evidence reconciled.",
    "State updated or superseded if needed.",
