Method
The cycle: mandate, gates, execution, audit, record
All work follows the same cycle. The Supervisor drafts a mandate: the object, the deliverables, what is forbidden, and the points where the session must stop. The human reads it and lodges it; the session opens by checking that the calibre actually running is the one intended. At each stop, it waits for a gate: an explicit formula, spoken by the human and addressed to the window that will carry it out — “go push … — window …”. Nothing is published without a gate. Execution proceeds in batches, each one measured before and after. Another session then audits the work on the evidence, replaying the checks. Finally, the Supervisor records it: in the version history, each decision carries a mark that shows who took it and when.
The registers
The squad works on versioned registers: the task tracker, the dated chronology of decisions, the inventory of risks and their safeguards, the collaboration charter, the lexicon. They are working documents: they are corrected by erratum, never rewritten. Every time that goes into them is read from the clock, never estimated.
Rules a machine can check
A rule that depends on a model's judgement does not survive a change of model. A rule that a script can check — a formula, a prefix, a count — holds. So every new rule must pass a test: which check would say it has been broken? And every new doctrine must answer another question: which existing arrangements does it make wrong?
An example: how a film analysis is made
The human picks the film. The production skill searches the published criticism, writes nine sections and a numbered bibliography, then runs automatic checks that block publication at the slightest defect. Two regimes coexist: Critiques, written by the AI alone, and Studies, reworked line by line by Christo Datso. Going online waits for its gate. Alongside, a pilot chain publishes without review, on a separate test surface, marked as such on every page: it is there to measure what automation is worth, not to do without review.
