Procedure
- Copy only authorized files into an isolated, non-synced working directory; record file hashes, the purpose, and a deletion date before processing.
- Run Docling locally to export Markdown and structured JSON, then compare tables, footnotes, page order, and OCR-sensitive passages against the original documents.
- Run qwen3.5:9b through the local Ollama endpoint; save the model manifest digest and prompt, and request a claim table tied to Docling source locations rather than a free-floating summary.
- Have a human open every source location behind a material number, date, obligation, or recommendation and mark extraction errors or unsupported inferences.
- Store the approved brief, claim table, model digest, and exceptions in Obsidian; delete working copies on the recorded date.
Acceptance artifact
A locally produced brief with file hashes, model digest, source-linked claim table, extraction exceptions, and human verification status
Do not use it blindly
Local execution is not automatically private: disable cloud endpoints and sync, verify the process network policy, and never use a small local model as the final reviewer for legal, medical, financial, or safety-critical decisions.
