## Document Lifecycle
### Active Documents
- **CORE_REFERENCE**: Never archived, always current
- **ARCHITECTURE**: Stable, updated for major changes
- **IMPLEMENTATION**: Updated regularly, reflects current state
### Historical Documents
- **DEVELOPMENT_PHASES**: Preserved as completed milestones
- **ARCHIVED**: Superseded documents maintained for reference
### Update Guidelines
