 ## Proposed Next
 
-No next chunk is active. After this bootstrap has landed, the next Workstream product
-chunk must be planned through the loop and approved by the user before code
-starts.
+`WS-POL-001-01` is the proposed next Workstream product implementation chunk.
+Only planning is active. Backend implementation must not start until the user
+approves the chunk contract.
