Field Engineering

This repository defines the early operating principles, engineering culture, and documentation structure for a future field engineering firm.

It is intentionally documentation-first and minimal. The goal is to establish a clear foundation before adding process, tooling, or implementation-specific materials.

Documents

• CHECKLIST.md: Practical engineering checks and review prompts.
• PHILOSOPHY.md: Core beliefs and principles that guide engineering work.
• TODO.md: Initial roadmap for drafting and expanding the repository.
• CHANGELOG.md: Notable changes to the repository over time.
• LICENSE: GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPL-3.0) for repository contents.

Design Goals

This repository is intentionally concise.

A technician should be able to read the entire repository in under fifteen minutes.

If a new principle does not change behavior, it probably does not belong here.

Technical instruction belongs in the Engineering Handbook.
