Adding cheese and chives timing and qty

Hey all, 

I'm wondering when is the best time to add cheese and chives to my sourdough, is it during the stretch and fold? My bread is 100% hydration - I've been using the Wartface recipe and it's been pretty much foolproof for me. Also how much cheese and chives should I add?

Thanks in advance!

Later is better - like at the end. How much - up to you - but don't go to much (how much that is depends). Enjoy!

then slice it and use the cheese (cottage type) as a topper with a generous blanketing layer of chives on top.
