## Discussion Status

First draft for Luke and Angel to discuss. Not complete, not locked, and not a Blue Dog script.

## Source

Episode seed: ../episodes/episode-2026-05-17-profile-md-aura-md-boundaries.md
Strange But True: Community Ledger public profile and deeper private file sections
Public page: https://auraofintelligence.github.io/strange-but-true/community-ledger.html

## Visibility

mixed

## Why It Matters

This source trail keeps the Profile.md and Aura.md episode connected to its originating Strange But True, Aura, local, or public-planning context without flooding the episode with every deeper document.

## Useful For

- Luke and Angel discussion
- Red Dog research prep
- Scene and ad/sponsor checks
- Segment framing
- Future public/private review before publishing clips

## Plain-English Takeaway

Red Dog uses the idea of public profile files and deeper private AI context files to ask a bigger question: what should the world know, and what should only the trusted system know?

## What Not To Overclaim

Do not present Profile.md and Aura.md as a complete plan, finished policy, expert finding or public promise. Treat it as a first-draft discussion seed until Luke and Angel review it.

## Deeper Reading Needed

Review only the sources named above before production.
If a deeper private or local archive is needed, use the source-routing notes first and keep private material out of public pages.
