How To Read Reports

The report tree is easiest to read if you begin with the question you actually have instead of opening random JSON or Markdown files from the root.

If Your Question Is Geographic

1. Open scope-filtered outputs.
2. Start with world if you need the parent surface.
3. Drop to Europe-plus, Nordic, or one country bundle only after you know why the narrower filter exists.

If Your Question Is Map Interpretation

1. Open map surfaces.
2. Read the scope README before the HTML map itself.
3. Use map publication contracts and point traceability surfaces when a visible layer needs justification.

If Your Question Is Scientific Trust

1. Open evidence reviews.
2. Check scientific caveats before repeating a strong claim.
3. Use repository_sead_legibility_review.md or animal_sample_database_review.md when source-family strength matters more than map appearance.

If Your Question Is Repository Integrity

1. Open maintainer truth surfaces.
2. Start with repository_truth_posture.md.
3. Use docs, claim, and source-family audits when you need to understand why a public statement is allowed or blocked.
