4. The one-continuation rule

From the Meridians Wiki · Public · Maintained · joint

New users should not learn separate interaction grammars for Onboarding, Stories, Positions, and Home. Reuse three behaviours across the product:

  • one contextual composer, with the mic in the same trailing position;
  • one Story-style review sequence for generated or changed material;
  • one Home continuation that answers “what deserves me now?”

The Home resolver should choose in this order:

  1. a consequential judgment or re-priced read awaiting review;
  2. an unfinished activation step;
  3. the current read of the user’s primary active Position;
  4. a material recent change worth reviewing;
  5. caught up, with the next run visible.

Background work minimizes into the shared Dock rather than trapping the user in a setup screen. A user who returns after interruption should resume at the unfinished decision, not at the beginning of its flow.
