# sphere-index-template.txt - The per-folder INDEX file (your L1 CONTEXT). One per folder.
# This is the file that prevents bloat: it lists what lives in the folder so the AI never reads everything.
# Char budget: keep under ~4000 characters. Replace every [BRACKET]. The "Body / Health" content is a worked example.

=== WHAT THIS FILE IS ===
This is the index (L1 CONTEXT) for the Body / Health sphere. It is the first file the AI reads when it touches anything about my health. It does not hold the detail; it points to where the detail lives. One index file per folder. If it is not listed here, the AI does not know it exists.

=== SPHERE RECAP (one short paragraph) ===
Body / Health is my physical baseline: sleep, movement, food, energy, and the few numbers I track. The goal is simple and durable: stay active and strong, keep my weight in a healthy range, and protect energy for the work and people that matter. When this sphere slips, everything else gets harder, so it earns steady attention rather than crash effort.

Owner: Sam Rivera, 38, freelance marketing consultant, Lisbon.

=== WHAT LIVES IN THIS FOLDER ===
- Sleep, movement, and food notes
- A small set of tracked numbers (weight, resting heart rate, weekly active minutes)
- Training plans for any current goal (a race, a strength block)
- Supplements and any standing health routines

=== WHAT DOES NOT LIVE HERE ===
- Daily journal entries -> they go in the weekly review file
- Random health ideas not yet decided -> inbox
- Family medical history -> the People / Family sphere
- Doctor invoices and costs -> the Money sphere
- Finished plans and old versions -> archive (listed at the bottom)

=== MAIN FILES AND SUB-FOLDERS (the linked list) ===
- [body-principles.txt]   - my non-negotiables for this sphere (changes rarely)
- [body-log.txt]          - dated changes, newest on top
- [sleep-notes.txt]       - what helps and hurts my sleep
- [training/]             - sub-folder for any active plan
    - [training/half-marathon-plan.txt]  - week by week to [RACE DATE]
- [food-and-energy.txt]   - meals that work, energy patterns
- [supplements.txt]       - what I take and why
- [numbers.txt]           - the few metrics I actually track

(As this grows: any topic that becomes more than ~5 files or needs its own folder gets its own index file, and I add one line for it here.)

=== CURRENT (what is live right now) ===
- Training for a half marathon on [RACE DATE]; longest run so far [X] km.
- Weight trending toward my target of [TARGET] kg; checking weekly, not daily.
- Sleep is the weak link this month: aiming for [HOURS] h, lights out by [TIME].
- One thing I am testing: [SHORT EXPERIMENT, e.g. no screens after 22:00].

=== ARCHIVE (L3, listed here so it stays visible) ===
- archive/[DATE]_[old training block name]
- archive/[DATE]_[old experiment]

=== LINK BACK ===
The Constitution links here. When the AI needs anything about my health, it starts at this index, then follows the link to the one detail file it needs. It does not load the whole folder.
