adapter-authoringlisted

# adapter-authoring Teach the user (or yourself, as an agent) how to build a **source adapter** for Athenaeum: a script or integration that turns an external source into raw-intake files the librarian compiles into the wiki. This skill is self-contained — it does not depend on any private Kromatic repo or context. The authoritative contract this skill operationalises is [`docs/adapter-contract.md`](https://github.com/Kromatic-Innovation/athenaeum/blob/main/docs/adapter-contract.md). The runnable reference is [`examples/adapters/minimal_adapter.py`](https://github.com/Kromatic-Innovation/athenaeum/blob/main/examples/adapters/minimal_adapter.py). This skill file ships inside the published `athenaeum` package (under `skills/`); the contract doc and example live in the repository and the source distribution (links above), so it stays self-contained however it was installed. ## The one rule A source **only appends raw files** to the intake tree. A separate compiler — the librarian — is the **only** writer to the wiki. Your adapter's entire job is to write well-shaped raw-intake files; everything downstream (clustering, merge, contradiction detection, retirement) is the librarian's job, not yours. Safety comes from this structure, not from trusting the source. ## Which lane? - **Lane A (default)** — `raw/<source>/<timestamp>-<uuid8>.md`. Use for almost every external source. This skill walks Lane A. - **Lane B (auto-memory)** — `raw/auto-memory/<scope>/…`. Only for bridging
