| # | Decision | Recommendation |
|

|:--|:--|:--|
|
||||
| **D-1** | Lifetime tier — offer it, at what price/position? | Keep $47/yr as the anchor; a lifetime option only as a bounded early-bird capitalization play, not the default. |
|
||||
| **D-2** | Contributor payment — how do people earn for *writing* workflows, not just referring? | **Resolve before launch** — it's the engine of the "living book." Royalty pool, per-workflow bounty, or an explicit "v1 authored, paid contribution in Q1." |
|
||||
| **D-1** | ~~Lifetime~~ **Signed 2026-08-31:** **$47/yr** only. No lifetime SKU as an equal product. | Locked. |
|
||||
| **D-2** | ~~Writer pay~~ **Signed 2026-08-31:** founding writers on **contract**. v1 authored. Layer 2 royalties later. | Locked for v1. |
|
||||
| **D-3** | Confirm the two unconfirmed co-authors (Higher Ed, Communities) | Confirm this week, or cut those verticals from v1 and add post-launch. |
|
||||
| **D-4** | Refresh the source-of-truth plan to the 9/26 dates & re-signed terms | Do after D-1/D-2 land. |
|
||||
| **D-5** | Human-first or agent-first for v1? | Human-first. Build the format so agents *can* read it later; optimize v1 for human learners. |
