 The `public-process` repository is the primary venue for ORGAN-V content. It houses 40 long-form essays (2,000-5,000 words each, ~130K words total), organized by category (meta-system, case study, retrospective, guide). Its Jekyll site with RSS is live at **[organvm-v-logos.github.io/public-process](https://organvm-v-logos.github.io/public-process/)**. The four supporting repos provide autonomous essay pipeline automation (`essay-pipeline`), privacy-first engagement analytics (`analytics-engine`), editorial governance (`editorial-standards`), and curated intellectual context (`reading-observatory`).
 
+## Join the Conversation

+ORGAN-V publishes in the open, and the conversation around that work belongs in the
+open too. **[GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/organvm-v-logos/.github/discussions)**
+is the community square for the organization:
+
+- **💡 Ideas** — propose essay topics, methodology experiments, or system directions
+- **🙋 Q&A** — ask about the architecture, the essays, or how to contribute
+- **📣 Show & tell** — share what you're building or how the work influenced yours
+- **💬 General** — open-ended conversation about building in public
+
+Discussions complements — rather than replaces — the existing channels: use
+[Issues](https://github.com/organvm-v-logos/.github/issues) for concrete bugs and
+feature requests, and Discussions for everything open-ended. This is the place to
+talk back; the project is no longer broadcast-only.

 ## How ORGAN-V Fits the System
 
 The organvm system distributes creative and institutional work across eight specialized organs — 81 repositories, ~320K words of documentation. ORGAN-V occupies a unique position: it is the organ that **observes and narrates** the work of all the others.
