Case walkthroughs
Documented public cases, read structurally. Each walkthrough presents the record first, pauses on what the framework would ask, then shows the published diagnostic read with sources attached. No villains required.
Every case in this library is a closed public record: commission reports, court filings, board investigations, published books. The framework's contribution is the reading, not the reporting, and its own rule rides along on every page: findings attach to structures and positions, never to persons.
The Challenger launch decision
The night before launch, an engineering answer changed without the engineering data changing. A category swap, preserved in the Rogers Commission record.

Wells Fargo cross-selling
Roughly 5,300 mostly front-line workers were fired. The board's own investigation report tells a structural story about who set the goals and who wore the risk.

Kodak and the digital transition
The popular version says Kodak didn't see digital coming. The record says the opposite: Kodak saw it first, and wrote it down.

How these walkthroughs work
The format practices the doctrine. The record comes first, dated, from the named public source. The framework's questions come second. The diagnostic read comes third, at the depth published in the working papers and on the framework page, and the sources close every page. Where a famous quote can't be re-verified against the primary record, the walkthrough paraphrases and says so.
The library grows from the same seed bank that feeds the Facebook page's Doctrine in the Wild series, so a case discussed there has a permanent home here.
Seen a pattern yourself?
If you want to argue with a reading, the contact line is open; the framework claims to survive scrutiny, and that claim only means something if people test it. If you've lived a pattern and want to describe it, the standing rule protects everyone: patterns only, no employer names, no real names, yours or anyone else's.
