# Intelligence Files Starter Brief

A declassified-history starter brief for readers entering the intelligence dossiers, agency maps, source-methodology pages, and public-record archive routes.

## Boundary

Lead magnets are public orientation assets with a seven-day intelligence window. They do not increase evidence strength or replace trust/privacy pages.

## Promise

Get the agency archive route: how to enter declassified files, separate official record from inference, and move into the intelligence dossier reading path.

## Reader Outcome

The reader can start researching agency files without treating every declassified fragment as a complete conclusion.
