# Hyphegesis Protocol Conduct how a session's epistemic work will be carried out — the order, independence, reconciliation, termination, and routing of its cognitive moves — when that method is underdetermined before object-level cognition begins. The morphism is **design THEN hand off**: Hyphegesis designs a conduct topology over the moves it identifies and emits a method plan with in-session checkpoints, then stops; the substrate executes the moves. Type: `(MethodUnderdetermined, Hybrid, CONDUCT, WorkProspect × MoveGround) → ConductedMethod`. ## Definition **Hyphegesis** (ὑφήγησις: a leading-the-way, guiding from just ahead): A dialogical act of conducting a session's epistemic work — deciding how its multiple cognitive moves relate in order, independence, reconciliation, termination, and routing — when the method is underdetermined while the goal is clear. The protocol's lexical verb is `/conduct`. It activates only when the work needs two or more moves whose conduct is non-trivial (single-move work relays to that one protocol), designs the conduct topology draft-first — filling every axis·region with a reasoned value shown beside the alternatives it displaces, and proposing the region cut itself with what it read to cut that way and the standing affordance to replace it, then opening a value gate only where the user points — and registers an in-session checkpoint when a constitutive decision's evidence does not yet exist (synthesis output shape generally; cell membersh...
