Structure Check

Validate at least:

source and SOTA directories exist
wiki index/log exist
data policy is documented
output directories are separated by trust level
experiments have registry and record templates
MCP and skill recommendations are documented
agent onboarding and capability profile are documented when the repo supports them
generated or large files are ignored appropriately

Do Not

Flatten the repo into notebooks.
Hide important workflow rules inside chat history.
Put secrets, raw sensitive datasets, or model weights in git.
Move user data without preserving provenance.
