## Hypothesis

Long AI chat sessions contain publishable assets worth extracting.

## Setup

The Conversation-to-Source Extractor prompt run over exported working
sessions; outputs staged in a private area for boundary review before
anything reaches the public repo.

## What I tried

Extraction over several long sessions, classifying each asset as public,
review, or private at extraction time rather than at publish time.

## Result

Mixed — the extraction rate is good, but manual boundary review is still the
bottleneck.

## Next iteration

Automate the public/private boundary check before publishing instead of
reviewing manually.
