# 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 protocol graph and emits a method plan with in-session checkpoints, then stops; the substrate executes the moves. Type: `(MethodUnderdetermined, Hybrid, CONDUCT, WorkProspect × ProtocolGraph) → 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 impact-first — settling the highest-leverage axis·region first, each at its own gate — and registers an in-session checkpoint when a constitutive decision's evidence does not yet exist (synthesis output shape generally; cell membership in the decompose-recovery instance), surfaces substrate feasibility as a handoff annotation, compiles a decision-typed Recognition brief into every checkpoint, assembles a cross-cutting ...
