component-extraction

Domain-neutral methodology for the third level of Adler-style reading - extracting structured components (terms, propositions, arguments, solutions) from a document section by section. Selects a reading strategy appropriate to document size and structure (section-based for documents under 50 pages with clear sections; windowing for long documents without breaks; targeted for hybrid content where only specific sections matter). Writes per-section extraction notes that downstream synthesis can consume. Reusable across any extraction workflow - skill creation from a methodology document, Pass-2 content grasp on a paper's full text, evidence-mining from a long-form report. Use when an agent has done structural analysis and now needs to extract the actual atomic content.
