# trials Bounded experiments. One directory per trial: `trials/-/` containing `record.md` and, where possible, a re-runnable `verify.sh` plus its captured `output.txt`. Required sections: question/hypothesis, scope + acceptance criteria, inputs (paths, hashes, tool versions), procedure (exact commands), expected vs observed, evidence paths, verdict (`confirmed` / `rejected` / `inconclusive` / `blocked`), and a repeat guard (what would justify another attempt). Preserve failed runs. Index lives in `TRIALS.md`. Routine edits and ordinary test runs do not need a trial.
