 A workspace wires the relational DWH + the pgvector (dual-key) + embeddings + evidence.
 See `workspaces/tht.example.yaml`. `${THT_*}}` tokens expand from `.env`.
 
+### Per-customer workspace repo (deployment shape)
+
+ThothII is generic; **evidence content and LSH indexes are per-customer** and live in a
+**separate repo**, not copied into `harness/`. The deployment is two checkouts + one `.env`:
+
+```
+ThothII/                      generic harness (this repo)
+└── harness/                  tht CLI + .env (THT_* secrets, points at the customer repo)

+`THT_DOCS_ROOT` in `.env` points at the **root** of the customer repo
+(`evidence.source_root` + `evidence.evidence_dir` resolve the curated folder).
+All `tht` commands take the customer workspace via `-c`:
+
+```bash
+tht schema introspect -c /path/to/tht-workspace-<customer>/<customer>.yaml
+tht lsh build        -c /path/to/tht-workspace-<customer>/<customer>.yaml
+tht session new      -c /path/to/tht-workspace-<customer>/<customer>.yaml
