feat(gtm): overnight D&O decidable-governance refiner loop (local, grounded, anti-stub)

End-goal-backward GTM engine. Buyer = D&O underwriter/Chief Actuary; the sellable artifact
is a decidable, recomputable receipt proving an agent stayed inside its authorized Chebyshev
coordinate fence (the T.J. Hooper standard-of-care + Caremark oversight record). Two objectives
written + compared (drift-tax pricing knob vs decidable-governance gate); chose the gate.
Operator steer: build from BOTH ENDS — underwriter (prices it) + insured C-suite (demands it).

scripts/gtm/overnight-refiner.sh: every 30 min until 8am, refine the seed with a LOCAL model
(ollama qwen2.5:7b via /api/generate, num_predict-bounded — NO claude, no unpinned-cloud
 risk), grounding each pass on the LIVE substrate-check + lens-rule-fit summaries. Every
pass RE-VERIFIES the substrate and ABORTS on any ghost — it will not refine a claim on a table
that isn't physically there. The prompt forbids citing any table not in the substrate manifest
and forbids inventing numbers. Single-flight, self-terminating, milestone emails every 3 passes
(steer by reply, never blocks). Loop fired (pid live); kickoff+steering email sent (c3b23854).

Guard: tests/ops/gtm-refiner.test.js (local-only · anti-sand gate before model call · grounded+
no-stubs prompt · bounded/self-terminating). Iterations gitignored (generated overnight output).

Originating-Terminal: 🔨 iTerm Builder
Relevant-Rooms: 🧪 Cursor Laboratory, 🔨 iTerm2 Builder, ☕ Messages Network
Story: With the substrate proven real (no stubs) and the preflight guard in place, stood up the
overnight self-refining GTM loop on verified metal — grounded, local, anti-stub, both-ends.

commit f5c2f0676 — 144×144 lattice triptych (on-chip)

◎ the ingest chose B3,A3 — Tactics·Signal × Strategy·Fund — acting on A,A1 — Strategy × Strategy·Law (grip 0.797) · the walk starts at the ACTOR's row · 5 file(s)

⏱ ingest 258.7ms (corpus→lattice) · definer walk 148ms (row→transpose→row, ballistic XOR per hop) · total 492ms
ingest here = commit-scoped SENSING only (this commit's message + changed files → lit anchors) — deep seed authoring lives in the reef-self-loop, off the commit path

rows = ACTOR (lens) · cols = PATIENT (object) · diagonal = self-reference; ◎ at actor-row × patient-col — every panel, same orientation. Heat above the diagonal = actors ranking ShortLex-earlier than their patients (the walk follows definers uphill in rank).
The 12 canonical lanes (rows top→bottom, cols left→right): A·Strategy · B·Tactics · C·Operations · A1·Law · A2·Goal · A3·Fund · B1·Speed · B2·Deal · B3·Signal · C1·Grid · C2·Loop · C3·Flow

PAIR LATTICE (the map we normally see)

PRE-WALK SENSE · INTENT grid — the snapshot, no point of view

the no-point-of-view snapshot — what the sensor lit before any walk; the leaf walk below is what bridges the two grids

ABC A1–C3 A1A–O A2A–O A3A–O B1A–O B2A–O B3A–O C1A–N C2A–N C3A–N

PRE-WALK SENSE · REALITY grid — the snapshot, no point of view

the no-point-of-view snapshot, reality side — same sensor law

PRE-WALK Δ · straight comparison of the two ingested grids (green both · cyan intent-only · amber reality-only) · 3% overlap · ◎ = where the competence pixel sits in the raw overlap

good = green overlap without being a copy — near-100% is self-similarity, not alignment

◎ the pixel this commit belongs to

B3,A3 — Tactics·Signal × Strategy·Fund (actor) acting on A,A1 — Strategy × Strategy·Law (patient) · grip 0.797

actor seed B3,A3 — Sufficient signal reach and message bandwidth require enough fund capital and budget runway to maintain the broadcast. Every dollar builds either the floor (substrate that lifts future bets) or the ceiling (cap on the next round). Allocation is which one this dollar chooses, and the choice is irreversible by the time the wire clears. Burn rate divides into substrate-building and exhaust. Substrate compounds; exhaust evaporates by quarter-end. The investor who pays for substrate is buying a different asset than the investor who pays for exhaust. Capital allocation is the irreversible vote — the bet that closes options to keep the others open. Each dollar deployed buys both the asset and the foreclosure of every alternative the dollar could have funded. Signal-to-noise is the inverse cube of bandwidth — narrow the channel, the message arrives; broaden it, recipients tune out. The right channel is the one whose floor matches the message's importance. A broadcast that addresses everyone addresses no one. Precision over reach until the address is calibrated; only then does scale convert prospects into recipients rather than into unsubscribes. Repetition is the cost of being heard. Three sends to one recipient beats one send to three; the first send announces, the second send is heard, the third send is remembered.

patient seed A,A1 — Strategy establishes the long-horizon substrate that inherits the binding mandate of a law or governance rule. EU AI Act Article 14 requires human-on-the-loop oversight, with the supervisor able to interrupt the system at any moment. Compliance attaches to the artifact the artifact cannot escape — provenance is a regulatory primitive, not a feature. Constraints precede objectives. The cap-table, the license text, the consent envelope — each draws the inviolate line the action must respect, and the line is enforced before the optimization runs. A rule names what the system MAY NOT do. If the agent can do X, then 'forbid X' is not the constraint — it is wishful thinking dressed as policy. Constraints live in the gate, not in the prompt. Regulation is not advisory. The fine is the price tag stapled to the omitted control; insurance is the option pricing on the failure-mode the regulation already named. The lattice we build today is what next year's underwriter inherits. We set the substrate that downstream pricing rides on, and that choice is paid back across every quarter we keep operating. Direction is what you keep when you forget the calendar. Multi-year posture, irreversibly chosen, defines the boundary every quarter renegotiates inside. Strategy is the bearing the rotation is measured against. Capital lives where strategy is durable. Frame the ten-year shape of the business before optimizing the ten-week sprint; the substrate decisions compound while the surface decisions decay. The strategic question is which doors close on purpose. Anything that keeps every option open until next year has already chosen the option of inaction, paid in optionality cost.
