+# The Initiator
+
+> **[INCOMING — Mission Control, Earth]**
+>
+> Cadet, ground zero. Take an empty directory and turn it into a
+> Git project.
+>
+> Two commands today:
+>
+> - `git init` — turns the current directory into a Git repository
+>   (creates a hidden `.git/` folder)
+> - `git status` — shows what Git sees: branch, tracked, untracked
+>
+> Your script must:
+>
+> 1. Run `git init` (use `-b main` to set the default branch)
+> 2. Capture `git status` to `status-before.txt`
+> 3. Create `intro.md` containing `Hello, Git`
+> 4. Capture `git status` to `status-after.txt`
+>
+> Notice the second status sees the new file as *untracked* — that
+> distinction is the heart of how Git works.
+>
+> [END TRANSMISSION]
+
+## Your Task
+
+In `starter/starter.sh`, write the four steps above.
+
+## Objectives
+
+- `.git/` exists
+- `intro.md` contains `Hello, Git`
+- `status-before.txt` looks like git status output
+- `status-after.txt` mentions `intro.md`
