Notebook discipline for hybrid hunt teams

Hybrid hunts need a skeleton everyone commits to before touching data: hypothesis, falsification plan, pivot log, and retired-lead reasons. We provide Markdown templates and refuse merges that skip sections.

The skeleton is boring on purpose. Boring templates travel across time zones better than clever freeform pages.

Mentors annotate retired-lead reasons most heavily. That is where teams hide discomfort with uncertainty.

We also schedule a thirty-minute “notebook read” where another pair narrates your notes cold. Gaps become obvious without defensive debate.
