# Someday — Rivet Yard

**What this file is for.** Projects that are real but are not being worked, so
they leave `projects/` without leaving the vault. The rule is anti-pattern 13:
**more than about seven active projects under one venture cannot be reviewed
weekly, and the weekly review refuses an eighth until one moves here.**

**It moves on the weekly review, not on a session's judgment mid-week.** Moving
something here is a decision that it is not being worked; that is Rowan's to make
and it belongs in the ritual that looks at the whole venture at once.

**Active projects in this venture: 2 of about seven.**

## Parked

**Nothing yet.**

## The third project this venture has and has not admitted to

**Business or hobby.** `hobbs-7h6`, P3, **never once in a brief**: *"Write one
paragraph deciding whether Rivet Yard is a business or a hobby."*

It is not filed under `projects/` because it is currently one paragraph, and it is
not parked here because it has never been worked — **it has never been decided
whether it is work.** It is part of the venture's own twelve-month bet, in Rowan's
words:

> "Occupied, permit closed, and I've admitted to myself which of the two things it
> is."

**Recorded here so the third thing is visible from the venture rather than only
from the task graph.** It becomes a project the day it gets an owner and a date,
and it moves here properly the day Rowan says it is not being worked.
