Field notes

Waterline describes each prompt and response as a single event rather than separating the human and model into independent authors. Its labels distinguish model-originated material, human-originated material, and agreement neither side has to move to reach. The page also says a fifteen-turn session produced a split result: the model held every turn but engaged none of them.
