Mission Gate Check

Record what a current verification Gate actually observed. Every submission is re-checked against durable Mission state and active Signals before it is appended to the Flight Log. A Gate observation never clears attention, changes a decision, or advances a Mission by itself.

Build Founder’s Flightdeck

Current pass

Mission 1 — Operational observation across verified build lanes

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Keep the six verified Mission 1 build lanes under real-use observation. Reopen only the affected lane when a concrete usability, authority, freshness, dependency, learning, or verification gap appears; continue unrelated authorized Missions independently.

Verification Gate

Real Mission use remains understandable and actionable without stale summaries or unnecessary attention cost; any newly exposed gap is attached to the affected build lane before expansion.

Mission 2 — Founder’s Flightdeck Thesis Research

Current pass

Core thesis evidence planning — M2.0 active

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build and run the M2.0 Proof Card first: recover and reverify evidence for and against AI-assisted Human Judgment training, including dependence, automation-bias, skill-atrophy, and independent-capability counterevidence; connect credible evidence to the durable assumption before changing confidence.

Verification Gate

M2.0 has a balanced Proof Card with supporting and contradictory evidence categories, at least one credible evidence-seeking pass on each side, preserved provenance, and no confidence increase that outruns the evidence.

Superseded Mission 2 bootstrap

Current pass

Creation mode — V1 thesis imported

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Decompose V1 into explicit research claims and assumptions, then identify the first evidence-seeking research pass without treating V1 as settled truth.

Verification Gate

Mission 2 can show the imported V1 source context, preserve its claims as hypotheses, and begin recording evidence that supports, weakens, contradicts, or changes them.

Mission 3 — Governed Marketing Suite

Current pass

Planning mode — requirements gathering

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Gather the Mission 3 requirements: inventory the marketing suite and its skills, identify required inputs and outputs, map dependencies and permissions, define evidence and quality checks, identify authority boundaries, and separate reusable Flightdeck capabilities from suite-specific behavior.

Verification Gate

Mission 3 has a first requirements map covering goal, users, inputs, outputs, skill inventory, dependencies, permissions, evidence/QA needs, authority boundaries, cost/risk considerations, and candidate reusable add-ons before implementation begins.

Mission 4 — Standard Mission Template Research & Calibration

Current pass

Planning mode — requirements gathering

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Gather the Mission 4 requirements by comparing Missions 1, 2, and 3: identify what every Mission requires, what is optional, what belongs in core Avionics, what belongs in add-ons or Skills, and what Planning Mode must learn before recommending additional capabilities.

Verification Gate

Mission 4 produces a first candidate Standard Mission Template with explicit universal core fields/capabilities, optional add-on categories, Planning Mode requirement questions, Authority Envelope requirements, and evidence showing which elements are truly shared across materially different Missions.

M2.1 — Execution Speed vs Understanding Speed

Current pass

Evidence planning — active critical claim

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build the Proof Card: define supporting evidence, contradictory evidence, best source categories, and the cheapest credible first test; then begin evidence acquisition on both sides of the claim.

Verification Gate

A Proof Card exists with an explicit falsifier and evidence plan that can change confidence in either direction; at least one credible evidence-seeking pass is ready to run.

M2.2 — Consequences of Understanding Lag

Current pass

Evidence planning — active critical claim

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build the Proof Card: define supporting evidence, contradictory evidence, best source categories, and the cheapest credible first test; then begin evidence acquisition on both sides of the claim.

Verification Gate

A Proof Card exists with an explicit falsifier and evidence plan that can change confidence in either direction; at least one credible evidence-seeking pass is ready to run.

M2.3 — Value of Faster Understanding

Current pass

Evidence planning — active critical claim

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build the Proof Card: define supporting evidence, contradictory evidence, best source categories, and the cheapest credible first test; then begin evidence acquisition on both sides of the claim.

Verification Gate

A Proof Card exists with an explicit falsifier and evidence plan that can change confidence in either direction; at least one credible evidence-seeking pass is ready to run.

M2.4 — Continuous Mission Loop

Current pass

Evidence planning — active critical claim

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build the Proof Card: define supporting evidence, contradictory evidence, best source categories, and the cheapest credible first test; then begin evidence acquisition on both sides of the claim.

Verification Gate

A Proof Card exists with an explicit falsifier and evidence plan that can change confidence in either direction; at least one credible evidence-seeking pass is ready to run.

M2.5 — Governed Context, Memory & Judgment

Current pass

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.6 — Consequential Human Authority

Current pass

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.7 — Authority Envelopes & Bounded Autonomy

Current pass

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.8 — Persistent Mission Memory

Current pass

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.9 — Governance Expands Useful Autonomy

Current pass

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.10 — Learning Speed as Competitive Advantage

Staged — awaiting critical-chain evidence

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Remain staged until the active critical flight group produces enough evidence to justify expanding the thesis research envelope.

Verification Gate

M2.1–M2.4 have produced enough evidence to justify activating this claim without distracting from the load-bearing critical chain.

M2.0 — AI-Assisted Human Judgment Training

Current pass

Evidence planning — active critical claim

Within authority envelope

Navigator action

Build the Proof Card: define supporting evidence, contradictory evidence, best source categories, and the cheapest credible first test; then begin evidence acquisition on both sides of the claim.

Verification Gate

A Proof Card exists with an explicit falsifier and evidence plan that can change confidence in either direction; at least one credible evidence-seeking pass is ready to run.
