Build a living registry of your schemas with metadata about

Build a living registry of your schemas with metadata about source, confidence, last-tested date, and status rather than treating beliefs as a static snapshot.

Why This Is a Principle

Grounded in Exponential Information Decay (information decays), Open-Loop Cognitive Cost (Zeigarnik) (unexternalized commitments consume working memory), and Knowledge that exists only in tacit form degrades without (tacit knowledge degrades). The principle prescribes maintaining an active registry with state tracking—preventing schema degradation through systematic maintenance.
