Daily standup for 2026-07-05. What shipped:

#288 ships question_type, a new content-shape facet for the playbook taxonomy — three values: how-to, decision, concept. All 68 approved playbooks are backfilled (47 how-to · 16 decision · 5 concept), classified by Omar as Brain Content Lead.

ADR-0031 records the key call: this is a coverage/authoring/generator-targeting signal, not a retrieval-boost axis in V1. Embeddings already capture question shape via phrasing; boosting by it would mis-serve when operator phrasing diverges from the authored shape. Stored, inert at query time — $0/query cost.

Implementation follows the platform (#287) mechanical pattern: registered in APPLICABILITY_VOCAB so the ingest validator applies, added to _METADATA_SYNC_KEYS, no all sentinel, no review-gate or eval-fixture changes. Playbooks that omit question_type won’t churn on first ingest — _norm_meta treats missing-key and empty-list as in-sync.

Notable. The 68-playbook backfill triggers re-embeds because the current ingest script re-embeds on any UPDATE, including metadata-only diffs. A follow-up to skip re-embed when only frontmatter changed is tracked but not yet scoped.
