+# wizard-work census
+
+Extract lane table: per-directory file count and total byte size of the
+`wizard-work/` tree (the ledger's committed work area), as of 2026-10-27.
+
+Convention: the three files that *compose* this census (`wizard-work-census-2026-10-27.tsv`,
+`wizard-work-census-2026-10-27.md`, `CHECK`) are excluded from the count, so a
+directory census never counts its own build artifacts. `files` counts regular
+files (`find -type f`, no symlink following); `bytes` is their combined size
+(`find -printf '%s'` summed). `TOTAL` is the tree aggregate minus the census
+files themselves.

+- Source: `wizard-work/` in the troupe repo, recomputed 2026-10-27.
+- `files` per dir: `find <dir> -type f | wc -l` (excluding the 3 census files).
+- `bytes` per dir: `find <dir> -type f -printf '%s\n' | awk '{s+=$1} END {print s}'`
+  (excluding the 3 census files).
+- Totals: `find wizard-work -type f` excluding the 3 census files = 3795;
+  size sum = 205544693.
+- Check: `./CHECK` independently recomputes the tree (with the same exclusion)
+  and diffs the TSV.
