+## Launch prompt
+
+```
+/goal Develop the spec for sub-project 2 — "Ingest & Tagging / Review tools" — of
+the Human Experience Filter, the next item in docs/ROADMAP.md. Ground it in
+docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-04-human-experience-filter-design.md (especially §5
+division-of-labor and §8 sourcing) and the roadmap's sub-project-2 section.
+
+The spec must cover: per-archive ingest fetchers (Internet Archive/Prelinger,
+Musopen, LibriVox, NASA, Free Music Archive, Freesound); automatic mechanical
+tagging (mode via ffprobe, license/attribution/source from origin, duration_s,
+resolution, dominant_color computed from video); assistant coordinate-drafting
+that writes a one-line rationale and sets review_status=proposed; and the review
+CLI that walks proposed records (proposed coords + rationale + preview frame) and
+flips them to approved with reviewed_at. It must build on the existing
+hef.catalog API without breaking it — call out explicitly any additions the
+tools need.
+
+```
+
+## Deferred decisions
+
+_Autonomous-mode low-confidence calls the driver made and would have
+liked operator input on. Appended as the session runs; surfaced at
+finalize. Empty if none._
