 ### Organization
 
 - **Location**: All artifact specifications are stored in the `artifacts/` directory.
-- **Dated Folders**: Specifications should be placed in a subfolder named by the current date (e.g., `artifacts/YYYY-MM-DD/`).
+- **Dated Folders**: Specifications **MUST** be placed in a subfolder named by the current date (e.g., `artifacts/YYYY-MM-DD/`).
+- **CRITICAL**: Do **NOT** create specification files directly in the `artifacts/` root. Always use the dated folder.
 - **Filename**: Use descriptive names for the specification files (e.g., `move-to-library-specification.md`).
 
 ### Managing Folders

 ```bash
 cd artifacts

+- **Trigger**: New button next to the `h2` title in the `categoryPlacard`.
+- **Action**:
+  1. Update Vuex store settings for the specific sort (e.g., `orderBy` for library, `seriesSortBy` for series, `authorSortBy` for authors).
