## DBRS Semantic Field Guide

This document is part of the **Digital Business Relevance Suite (DBRS)**.

**Core idea (meaning arises in context):**
> X counts as Y in context C.

**Reading rules:**
- **Frontmatter** = canonical metadata (machine-readable, stable).
- **Body** = content information (for humans & LLMs, headless-CMS-ready).
- **CCR** (Canonical Context Registry) = semantic classification / navigation aid.
- **Summary-of-Content** = concise content statement (one claim, no marketing, no meta-explanation).

**HITL (Human-in-the-Loop):**
- When HITL/review is required: *not perfectionist*, but *semantically helpful*.
- Goal: reliable orientation and mentoring, not bookkeeping.

**What this document is NOT:**
- Not a promotional page.
- Not a summary of other content without source reference.
- Not speculation.
