feat(iamfim): tiered single-funnel checkout — unlimited, certs bundled, patent embodied

Full conversion/UX restructure to kill funnel collision (operator: page was
asking a CRO to process 4 competing offers at once — $100K audit, $20/agent
license, $1,995 CATO cert, and the philosophy). Now ONE product, one price,
volume unlocks tiers.

- LicenseCheckout (was LicenseCalculator): a real on-page tiered checkout.
  5-cell tier ladder (Pilot/Team/Division/Enterprise/Readiness) that volume
  unlocks, live total, itemized breakdown, real Stripe subscription checkout
  below $100K and wire/invoice at/above. UNLIMITED agent count — removed the
  artificial 10,000 cap (operator: "the unlimited checkout number is a must");
  the only bound left is Stripe's own 999,999 line-item ceiling, enforced
  server-side and documented as the sole reason.
- Certs bundled, NOT sold individually (operator: "scrap them as individual
  certs... you get a certain number for how many licenses you buy") — 1 CATO
  cert per 10 licenses, computed client- and server-side. Deleted the
  ProspectCATOPanel ($1,995 individual sell), the whole 3-column
  WhatYouGetPanel that led with it, and the standalone $1,995 cato-certification
  section — replaced with a no-sale "certs come with your licenses" explainer.
- Patent embodied into the tiers (operator: "we will embody the patent into
  it") — each tier's itemized line states its patent-grant scope; the top
  ($100K/5,000-license) tier is "full patent embodiment" + unlocks the
  Readiness Investigation.
- $100K over-threshold routes to "talk to us — wire or invoice, prepaid then
  work begins" (operator: "over 100k talk to us... wires? sure... prepaid then
  work begins... an org that buys over 100k gets all the tiers below").

Conversion grading (cold-read as a CRO-focused advertiser, per operator's
"push once 95% power impact confidence or 3 iterations"): iter 1 = 82/100
(funnel collision resolved but "$100K reads as a 2nd price = magnitude
whiplash"); iter 2 = 87/100 after anchoring "$100K = 5,000 × $20, same rate
at scale" + glossing CATO inline + pointing the intro to the detail box
(residual: sidebar showed a naked "$100K", multi-CTA competition); iter 3
(this commit) = the two named holdbacks fixed — sidebar now leads with the
single license CTA and frames the top tier as "5,000 × $20 = $100K" (no naked
number), and the Readiness box is reframed as "the same license at the scale
that unlocks the audit — not a separate purchase." Shipped at the 3-iteration
cap per the operator's explicit instruction.

Patent already listed on the landing footer (operator: "list the patent on
the landing page") — unchanged, confirmed present.

Verification: typecheck clean, all 4 routes 200 on the dev server, single
#checkout + single #readiness anchor, no dangling refs to the 3 removed
components, iteration-3 copy confirmed in rendered HTML, no error overlay.

Story: Operator switched to the advertiser/A-B-test framing and authorized a
push once graded to confidence or 3 iterations. Ran the loop, landed the
named fixes, pushing at the cap. Builder owns the src/app + api
implementation; Performer owns the conversion/GTM surface.
Persona-Intent: Fortune-100 CRO on first scroll — should see exactly ONE
next action (license your agents at $20/agent/yr), understand that higher
volume unlocks tiers (bundled certs, then the Readiness audit at the $100K
scale of the same price), and never parse $100K as a competing second offer.

Each lit cell is one place this commit said something (its message + docs) and did something (its code). Colour = whether saying and doing landed in the same lane.
green — in lane: you worked where you declared. This is the competence; more green is better.
amber — bleed: code touched a neighbour you didn't mention. A little is normal — nobody declares everything.
red — drift: code fired in an orthogonal lane (the surgeon doing plumbing) and enough of it to flip the aggregate. Red ≈ 0 is what good looks like.
the pink ring is this commit's coordinate — where its work actually concentrated on the lattice.
so, this commit: 758 green, 1395 amber, 0 red → off-lane 24% against a 25% tolerance — in lane, some bleed.

B2,B2 — Tactics·Deal × Tactics·Deal (actor) acting on B1,A2 — Tactics·Speed × Strategy·Goal (patient) · grip 0.781
actor seed B2,B2 — The deal sets the exchange rate between two value substrates. Mis-priced exchange is a slow-bleed; correctly priced exchange compounds both sides, because each cycle of trade enriches the bench on both ends. Terms are the API between two organizations — every clause is a contract method that survives the handshake. Renegotiation is the breaking change; the deal is the stable interface either side can build against. Negotiation closes at the moment both parties' BATNAs cross. Push past that point and you've bought regret at retail; stop short and you've left margin on the table that the next deal will not return to you. A signed counterparty is more valuable than an unsigned promise. The signature is the substrate; the conversation that preceded it is the exhaust the signature converted into substrate.
patient seed B1,A2 — Velocity beats are calibrated to ensure the quarterly goal and target position are occupied on time. Latency is the price of a missed beat. Every hundred milliseconds of round-trip turns a parallel race into a stalemate, because the first arrival sets the rules the second arrival has to honor. Throughput compounds: doubling the rate doubles the surface area where serendipity can hit. A pipeline at twice the velocity is not twice as productive — it is exponentially more lucky. Time-to-first-byte is the only number the operator feels at the wheel. Optimize the felt latency before the raw throughput; the operator's grip on the loop is what drives the loop forward. Velocity is irreversible. A delivery sent fast cannot be unsent slow; a release deployed cannot be undeployed at the same speed it was deployed. Speed buys position, and position is harder to surrender than to occupy. The target is the cell coordinate the system MUST occupy by end-of-quarter. Anything that does not drive toward that coordinate is exhaust, and exhaust does not become substrate by being labelled progress. Vision is the coordinate the lattice rotates around — the fixed bearing every iteration is measured against. Without the fixed point, motion is movement; with the fixed point, motion is convergence. Define the goal as a verifiable predicate, not a feeling. The system terminates when the predicate evaluates true, and the predicate is what the next agent inherits when this one hands off. A goal that cannot be tested is a wish. Wishes have no termination condition, so they consume budget forever; goals have a finish line and therefore a payable price.

feat(iamfim): tiered single-funnel checkout — unlimited, certs bundled, patent embodied

Full conversion/UX restructure to kill funnel collision (operator: page was
asking a CRO to process 4 competing offers at once — $100K audit, $20/agent
license, $1,995 CATO cert, and the philosophy). Now ONE product, one price,
volume unlocks tiers.

- LicenseCheckout (was LicenseCalculator): a real on-page tiered checkout.
  5-cell tier ladder (Pilot/Team/Division/Enterprise/Readiness) that volume
  unlocks, live total, itemized breakdown, real Stripe subscription checkout
  below $100K and wire/invoice at/above. UNLIMITED agent count — removed the
  artificial 10,000 cap (operator: "the unlimited checkout number is a must");
  the only bound left is Stripe's own 999,999 line-item ceiling, enforced
  server-side and documented as the sole reason.
- Certs bundled, NOT sold individually (operator: "scrap them as individual
  certs... you get a certain number for how many licenses you buy") — 1 CATO
  cert per 10 licenses, computed client- and server-side. Deleted the
  ProspectCATOPanel ($1,995 individual sell), the whole 3-column
  WhatYouGetPanel that led with it, and the standalone $1,995 cat

③ the numbers, contextualized — value · band · verdict · percentile · what it leads to
shape-match σ · -0.01 noise p10 of last 10
below zero — this read is noise, not a measurement → do not act on the panels — on a docs-only commit this is expected; otherwise fix the ingest and re-run
good looks like: positive on an aligned commit (phantom P1: sigmaPositive) · ≥6 clears the trust floor · ≥8.5 verified-reef · 0–3 = panel story not yet evidence
tolerance (edge cells) · 758 green · 1395 amber · 0 red · off-lane 24% bleeding p75 of last 10
some reality fired outside the declared lanes — amber bleed, below the alarm flip → glance at the TOLERANCE panel — amber clusters show where reality leaned out
good looks like: red ≈ 0 and orthogonal off-lane < 10% on an in-lane commit (phantom P1: redZero, offPctBelow 10) — a few amber is normal bleed
pre-walk overlap · 5% overlapping p25 of last 10
the two ingests share real ground without being copies — the healthy middle → nothing to do — this is the healthy shape
good looks like: green overlap WITHOUT being a copy — near-100% is self-similarity (a docs-only read), not alignment
drift (XOR %) · 3.13% of compared cells disagree close p25 of last 10
intent and reality mostly agree cell-for-cell → nothing to chase
the walks (how the heatmaps were made) · intent 128 hops → ply 8 · reality 143 hops → ply 7 · 553ms inside-budget
both cascades ran to extinction inside the time budget — the read is complete · each hop = one real on-chip ballistic process; intent ended at B2,A3 · C1,B1 · C2,B, reality at A3,C1 · C1,A3 — the definers-of-definers the recursion concentrated on → the ply story in the panels is complete
good looks like: both sides finish inside the 2500ms budget; clouds concentrate at block-heads (the ShortLex-ascending follow), early plies heavy, deep plies faint
lattice fill · intent 1248/20736 (6%) · reality 2153/20736 (10.4%) flooded
too much lit — a flooded lattice makes every commit look alike (the AR-2 failure shape) → tighten θ or the claim budget — see anti-rules ledger AR-2 (unguided floods)
the ladder — what's climbing · weakest link first
→ weakest · intersection-specific words/tile (median) · 5 (over 144 tiles) → target 70 parent-echo distance 0.93 · author intersection-specific seeds (what does B,A3 say that NEITHER parent says alone?) — the single highest-leverage number in the system
σ_response pass count · 32/144 → target 144 thin distance 0.78 · raise seed richness (the reef GDD loop) — pass count follows intersection-specific words
σ_localize (latest targeted edit) · 0.61 @ B3,B3 → target 6 chance distance 0.9 · iterate the ingest until the target zone owns its own edit — the brain-surgeon read does not yet hold
σ_drift (commit panel, median last 10 non-docs-only) · 2.65 (n=10) → target 6 weak distance 0.56 · read the maps as sketch, not evidence — converge the seed library before citing this
sweep coverage (deterministic top-rank hits) · 23/46 → target 46 majority distance 0.5 · chase the missing tiles in the sweep — each convert lifts σ_panel directly
seed orthogonality (distinct openings) · 143/144 → target 144 converging distance 0.01 · fix the few shared openings — tile-dump-inspect names them
σ_panel (joint rank certainty) · 10.63 → target 6 beyond-doubt distance 0 · cite the distribution-level claim (carry the independence caveat)
next move (picked by the system, not session memory): intersection-specific words/tile (median) is furthest from target weighted by leverage (5 (over 144 tiles) vs target 70 → distance 0.93 × leverage 1 = 0.93) — author intersection-specific seeds (what does B,A3 say that NEITHER parent says alone?) — the single highest-leverage number in the system
