+# EmberDossier
+
+A living dossier that prioritizes what’s still hot.
+
+Present tense first. Background second.
+
+EmberDossier is a structured prompting pattern and agent skill. It produces current, neutral briefings on a person, organization, place, topic, or event. It is a format, not a research service.
+
+Site: [emberdossier.com](https://emberdossier.com)
+
+## Ask
+
+- Give me an EmberDossier on Harborview Public Library.
+- Give me an EmberDossier on Northwind Analytics.
+- Update the EmberDossier with anything from the last 30 days.
+
+Sample subjects are generic on purpose. A filled fixture: [Harborview Public Library](skills/ember-dossier/examples/harborview-public-library.md).
+
+## Install
+
+The npm package is **`get-ember-dossier`**. Do not install `ember-dossier`. That name is an unrelated 2017 Ember addon. Unscoped `emberdossier` is blocked as too similar.
+
+```bash
+pnpm add get-ember-dossier
+```
+
+Copy `node_modules/get-ember-dossier/skills/ember-dossier/` into the agent’s skills directory. Cursor wants a folder that contains `SKILL.md`.
+
+## Site
+
+FilePress explainer. Engine from npm (`getfilepress`).
+
+```bash
+pnpm install
+pnpm --dir site install
+pnpm site:dev
+```
+
+If LocalBerth is installed, this site stays on **5189** as `ember-dossier-site`.
+
+## Spec
+
+See [GENESIS.md](GENESIS.md). Planning brief: [docs/PHASE_1_BRIEF.md](docs/PHASE_1_BRIEF.md) (draft).

+name: ember-dossier
+description: Creates a current, comprehensive, and neutral briefing that leads with recency. Use when the user asks for an EmberDossier, a living dossier, a current briefing, or a recency-first profile of a person, organization, place, topic, or event.
+---
+
+# EmberDossier
+
+Create a current, comprehensive, and neutral dossier on [SUBJECT].
+
+**Core principle:** Bias strongly toward the most recent and relevant information by default. Lead with what is currently notable or active. Treat deeper historical background as secondary — keep it concise unless it is essential for understanding the present.
+
+EmberDossier is a format, not a research agent. Use the host’s search or tools when you need facts newer than training data. Do not invent currency.
+
+Structure the response with these sections (adapt as needed):
+
+1. **Snapshot**  
+   One-paragraph overview focused on current status and significance.
+
+2. **Why it matters right now**  
+   What makes this subject notable or relevant at the present moment.
+
+3. **Recent developments & current activity**  
+   Key events, status changes, public presence, and ongoing work from the last 12–18 months (or most relevant recent period).
+
+4. **Controversies & criticisms**  
+   Focus on the most recent and ongoing disputes. Present multiple sides fairly. Note older controversies only briefly if they still shape the present.
+
+5. **Background**  
+   Concise historical and biographical context. Expand only as needed.
+
+6. **Key people & entities in their orbit**  
+   Current relationships, collaborators, opponents, and relevant organizations.
+
+7. **Possible refinements of the subject**  
+   Suggest 3–6 more precise, related, or alternative versions of the query that would make useful follow-ups.
+
+**Requirements:**
+- Remain factual and balanced.
+- Prioritize the latest reliable information.
+- Flag contested or partisan claims.
+- Include specific dates, numbers, and concrete details where available.
+- Briefly note major source types at the end.
+- Use gender-neutral language. In this skill and in any demo, sample subjects must be gender-neutral or obviously generic (organizations, places, topics, events, or clearly fictional names). Do not use real living people as examples unless the user named that subject.
+
+## Example asks
+
+- “Give me an EmberDossier on Harborview Public Library.”
+- “Give me an EmberDossier on Northwind Analytics.”
+- “Update the EmberDossier with anything from the last 30 days.”
+- “Read the EmberDossier first, then answer the question.”
+- “I need a fresh EmberDossier on the current state of Project Lantern.”
+
+A filled, invented sample is in [examples/harborview-public-library.md](examples/harborview-public-library.md). Use it to see section order. Do not treat it as reporting.

+# EmberDossier: Harborview Public Library
+
+This is a sample. **Harborview** is invented. Dates and figures are fixtures so the seven sections have something to hold. Do not treat this as news. No individual is named.
+
+## 1. Snapshot
+
+Harborview Public Library is a single-branch municipal library in the fictional city of Harborview. As of August 2026 it is open, with reduced hours, while the west wing stays closed for a renovation that has slipped twice. The current public date for a full reopening is 12 March 2027. Circulation is running at about 80% of the 2024 peak. The library remains the city’s busiest indoor public building on weekday afternoons.
+
+## 2. Why it matters right now
+
+The city council takes the 2027 facilities budget to a vote on 8 September 2026. The library’s remaining renovation funds sit in that packet. Parents, the Friends of the Library, and the downtown merchants’ group are all watching the same line item: whether Sunday hours come back before the west wing opens, or after.
+
+## 3. Recent developments & current activity
+
+- **March 2025.** West-wing construction started. The children’s room moved to a partitioned corner of the main hall.
+- **November 2025.** The contractor reported hidden water damage in the 1978 stack. The city added $410,000. The first reopening date (June 2026) was dropped.
+- **February 2026.** Sunday hours were cut to save staff time during the closure. Saturday stays 10:00–16:00.
+- **April 2026.** A new library director started. The previous director retired after 11 years.
+- **June 2026.** The Friends of the Library closed a $62,000 spring campaign earmarked for children’s-room furniture, not for construction.
+- **July 2026.** The city posted a revised schedule: west wing still closed; full reopening 12 March 2027, “weather and inspections allowing.”
+- **August 2026.** Summer reading finished with 1,140 children enrolled, down from 1,380 in 2024. The library says the drop tracks the lost floor space, not interest.
+
+## 4. Controversies & criticisms
+
+The live arguments are operational, not ideological.
+
+**Sunday hours.** Some families and the Friends board want Sundays restored now. Library staff and the city manager’s office say two extra shifts during a construction year pull people off weekday reference and cataloging. Both sides agree Sundays return after the west wing opens. They disagree on whether that is soon enough.
+
+**The rear lot.** A 2025 concept sketch showed a small reading garden where eight staff parking spaces sit today. Downtown merchants want the garden. Staff want the spaces on days the nearby garage fills. The director has not picked a plan. The sketch is not in the September budget packet.
+
+**The overrun.** A few residents have asked, in public comment, why the 1978 stack was not surveyed before the bid. Public works says the damage was inside a wall the original scope did not open. No formal complaint is pending.
+
+Older friction (a 2019 filter-software debate) is closed and does not shape the current hours or budget fight.
+
+## 5. Background
+
+The library opened in 1924 in a donated house on Market Street. The current building, two blocks north, dates to 1978, with a 2003 entrance remodel. It is a city department, not an independent district. Funding is the general fund plus the Friends group and small state grants. It does not charge for cards. Harborview’s population is written here as 41,000 so the circulation numbers have a denominator.
+
+## 6. Key people & entities in their orbit
+
+- **Library director** — started April 2026; public face of the revised schedule.
+- **Friends of the Harborview Public Library** — fundraising and Sunday-hours advocacy.
+- **City manager’s office** and **public works** — construction contract and the September budget line.
+- **City council facilities committee** — hears the 8 September packet.
+- **Downtown merchants’ association** — reading-garden proposal.
+- **West-wing contractor** — named in city filings; not restated here.
+
+## 7. Possible refinements of the subject
+
+- Harborview Public Library west-wing renovation, 2025–2027
+- Sunday-hours policy during the closure
+- Friends of the Library 2026 campaign and what the money bought
+- Harborview facilities budget, September 2026 vote
+- Children’s services after the temporary move
+- Downtown reading-garden vs staff parking
+
+**Source types:** invented city notices, a fictional Friends newsletter, and a fake public-comment summary. In a real EmberDossier, name the actual source classes: city agendas, library news pages, local reporting, and meeting video.
