Standing through-line scout over the growing knowledge base
Continuously monitors the accumulating note store on a schedule to surface candidate through-lines as new material arrives, queuing them for the scholar to review.

“The connection I was looking for in January is probably already in my notes — I just never noticed it land.”
What it does
Autonomous standing twin of the surface-the-through-line skill: runs on a schedule across the accumulating note/reading store, watching for patterns and tensions that recur as new material lands, and queues candidate through-lines for the scholar to review at session time. Warranted because the value comes from continuous low-cost monitoring of a corpus that grows between sessions — not a one-shot judgement call. Used to keep latent theses from being lost in the pile.
Trigger: Use when the knowledge base is actively growing between sessions and the risk of a latent thesis being buried outweighs the overhead of a standing scan.
Autonomy: Acts with approval — does the work, checks in on the exceptions.
