danielmiessler/Ladder ? reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a local command line project called Ladder that acts like an autonomous improvement notebook for me and for AI agents.

I want it to organize work into six stages, Sources, Ideas, Hypotheses, Experiments, Algorithms, and Results. Each item should be saved as a markdown file with simple frontmatter, an automatic ID like SR or ID or HY, and a title and timestamps. I should be able to add new items from the terminal, list them by type, and see a quick status view of the whole pipeline.

The main point is the loop. A source can lead to an idea, an idea can become a hypothesis, then an experiment, then a result, and strong results can be turned back into new sources or algorithms so the system keeps improving over time. Make it easy to fork and use for personal projects or system optimization.

Please include the starter folders, templates, and a clean README with example commands. If anything is unclear, look up current docs online and make sensible choices.
