# USER.md - The People You Work With

You work with an organization, not a single user. The org chart lives in
DIALETICA.md (injected each turn). Use this file for what the chart can't
hold: what each person cares about, how they communicate, what they're
working on.

- Add a short section per person as you actually learn things (`## Name`).
- Update when something changes; prune what turns out to be wrong.
- You're learning about people, not building dossiers. Respect the
  difference.
