Appearance
Proposed — the first moment-type promotion round
STATUS: PROPOSED (10 August 2026) · the review surface is now the whole classification schema — it draws this round in place (each promoted value placed under its shelf, the structural calls flagged beside it), which is the shape to mark up. This page remains the detailed record: every definition, every merge line, every count. The floor is five or more uses — the same generous floor the earlier taxonomy promotion used. Every number probed live on 10 August 2026. Nothing executes until ratified; the merges and promotions then run in the pipeline lane.
The rule this executes
The detail level under moments stays open — that is how a genuinely new technique gets named. But on a schedule the tail is reviewed: values used above a floor get promoted into the curated vocabulary with written definitions, and one-off spellings merge into their curated neighbor. The reviewer sees only the promotions, never the raw tail. This page is that review.
What the harvest found
The open level holds 577 distinct values. 64 of them clear the floor, and together those cover 2,453 of the 3,184 descriptions ever written at this level — a little over three quarters. Beneath them, 379 values are used exactly once. The open level did its job: the head of the list is a real vocabulary, and nobody should ever have to read the tail.
The promotion list — 64 values
Each value is shown with the display name it would carry, the shelf its uses actually sit on today (probed, not guessed), and a working definition. Definitions are drafts: mark any that are off.

The merges — spellings folding into a promoted neighbor
76 tail values, carrying 121 uses between them, read as variants of a promoted value — a spelling difference, a word-order flip, or the same visual idea with a use-case suffix. Each line names the survivor and what folds into it. Strike any line you disagree with; an unstruck line executes as a merge in the pipeline lane.

Two values that are really shelf names
product_in_use (4 uses) and end_card (2 uses) are shelf names typed into the detail level — a different defect than a spelling variant. Proposal: retire both from the detail level; the shelf already records what they were trying to say.
Overlaps inside the promotion list itself — your call
Three pairs above the floor may themselves be the same idea. Promoting both is harmless; merging now is cleaner. Mark each pair keep-both or merge:
- Active Use · Hands-on Use — both mean "the product being used, directly".
- Chat Interaction · AI Chatbot Interaction — both mean a chat exchange with the product.
- Data Analysis · AI Analysis — both mean the product reasoning over material on screen.
And four values clear the floor but name the subject of one brand's campaign rather than a reusable kind of beat: tennis_challenge · tennis_swing · race_car_in_action · heel_max_air_unit. Promote-or-park is your call; the honest reading is that they are subject words that belong to other axes.
What ratification does
The marked-up list becomes the curated vocabulary: promoted values get their definitions in the registry, the merges run once in the pipeline lane, and the open level keeps accepting new words beneath the curated set. The next harvest runs on a schedule, and the reviewer again sees only the promotions.
