# ============================================================================
# node_01_familiarization.py — Phase 1 (PLACEHOLDER)
# ============================================================================
#
# PURPOSE (Braun & Clarke 2006)
# -----------------------------
# "Transcribing data, reading and re-reading the data, noting down
#  initial ideas."
#
# Phase 1 is fundamentally a human activity — immersion in the data.
# LLM-assisted versions of this phase typically produce a summary memo
# capturing first impressions of the corpus as a whole, to prime the
# coding phase that follows.
#
# STATUS
# ------
# PLACEHOLDER. When built, this node will call the LLM with the full
# corpus (or a representative sample) and ask for a brief familiarization
# memo — what kinds of data are present, what stands out, what initial
# impressions the analyst should carry into coding.
