Current state story

Your goal

Create one concise, focused story that answers: "how does this work today?"

Writing principles

Narrative flow:

• Start at the recognizable entry point (user-facing feature, API, or main job)
• Follow work through layers that matter for this specific issue, no further
• Proceed chronologically: who calls what, what runs first, how outputs become inputs downstream

Sentence-level clarity:

• Each sentence answers one of: who invokes what, in what order, or what data shape moves between stages
• Anchor every beat on the layer doing the work—name the function, module, or process explicitly
• Introduce helpers in context as they appear in the call chain; don't digress into internals
• Link to code inline as supporting context (function names, schema fields, key assigns)
