Claim atoms are the smallest units of assertion in the atlas. They capture a specific idea from a book, then are later used in building aggregations, structure, and book pages.

By books

Their place in the atlas

This layer is read together with the atlas map and reading paths, because it does not function on its own. Every page here returns to a book and connects to a broader concept, path, or theme.

You can also consult adjacent claim atoms to see the claims that recur or appear side by side across books before deciding whether they need linking, merging, or remaining separate.
