+## Repository plan reports and overall portfolio plan
+
+When the question is not one bounded work graph but **what part of the overall effort each self-contained repository owns**, use the repository-report projection rather than inventing a centralized plan document.
+
+Each participating repository owns:
+
+```text
+docs/work-graphs/repository-plan-report.json
+```
+
+That report states its exact source commit, authority and non-transfer boundaries, portfolio role, current claim, delivered surfaces, active frontier, next actions, blockers, cross-repository relations, machine entrypoints, and `hmmm`.
+
+The frozen input contract is:
+
+```text
+interdependent-work-graph/repository-plan-report.schema.json
+schema:   the-interdependency.repository-plan-report
+version:  1.0.0
+blob SHA: 9b347b2dff7692054b571602f30ee6d00c2e7265
+```
+
+The deterministic reference aggregator is:
+
+```text
+interdependent-work-graph/portfolio_plan.py
+```
+
+Its output contract is:
+
+```text
+interdependent-work-graph/portfolio-plan.schema.json
+schema:  the-interdependency.portfolio-plan
+version: 1.0.0
+```
+
+Read `interdependent-work-graph/PORTFOLIO_PLAN.md` before producing or changing this projection.
+
+The portfolio plan is a **derived index of repo-owned claims**. It owns no repository canon. Missing or stale repo reports remain visible `hmmm`; do not reconstruct them from memory, package metadata, a neighboring repository, or the aggregator itself. Local checkout paths are excluded from the portfolio identity so the same report set hashes identically across machines.
+
+A repository plan report and a stack manifest are complementary:
+
+```text
+repository plan report -> what this repository owns and where its work stands
+stack manifest          -> exact identities in one bounded cross-repository work graph
+portfolio plan          -> deterministic projection across supplied repo reports

 - Whether the stack-manifest schema remains a procedural-skill reference contract or later becomes its own metadata-block/schema skill.
 - The next stack-manifest schema revision is expected to add explicit `certification_status_transfer` and `empirical_status_transfer` boundary fields, a canonical `repositories` ordering (for example by `repository` then `commit`) in place of declared-order identity, typed non-repository participants with digest/version/schema identities, and an explicit hashed edge list (`from`, `to`, `relation_type`) so distinct work graphs over the same participants cannot share one digest.
