Learning Castle Scout Schema

Canonical ID: /learning-castle/0116. A Scout explores candidate relationships in the eduKateSengkang estate. It may discover possible Roads, Bridges, Return Roads, orphan attachments and owner candidates, but it may not admit any of them into the live Castle until the relevant owner, evidence, edge type, key, Portcullis condition and return have been validated.

What a Scout May Discover

• an older article that belongs under an existing hub but has no meaningful inbound route;
• a deep room that needs a Return Road to its canonical owner;
• two existing domains that may require a real cross-Fort Bridge;
• a page whose current apparent owner conflicts with the Registry;
• a candidate Fort or sub-hub where a genuine ownership gap may exist;
• a redundant relationship that should remain unadmitted because another stronger route already exists.

Scout, Watchtower and Sentry

The Watchtower observes change. The Sentry guards declared live routes. The Scout looks outward for candidate routes and missing connections. A Scout proposal does not become live plumbing merely because it looks useful.

Machine Relationships

The Scout reads the Castle Registry, Node Schema, Edge Schema, Key Schema, Portcullis Schema and Return Schema. Nothing becomes admitted until it passes the Validation Schema. Machine readers should begin with the Boot Protocol.

The Scout may discover a road. Only the Castle may admit it.
