Workflow: CREATE (Study Creation)

Last updated: 2026-01-29 (Mario)

Goal

Create a new study via the Create Wizard:

Files → Introspection → Context → Draft → Interview → Validate → Publish

Source of truth

• Draft spec (local): browser storage
• Published spec: atomizer_spec.json

Outputs required (DoD)

• atomizer_spec.json (published)
• README.md (auto-generated)
• Study folder structure created

Key rules

• Don’t ask user for info we can introspect.
• Ask only gap questions.
• Canvas is validation (gimmick), not the authoring source.
