The Cockpit v2 — the machine, visually

One structural move: the morning becomes a walk-through — five small cards, one "next" between them, opening with your life, not your business. Three new organs: the Ember Keeper, the Tailor, the Cadence Dial. Everything else is the 07-08 machine, re-seated — nothing lost.
Ruled 09.07 · 3-AI roundtable · fixes folded in
This page explains the architecture. Its styling is not the visual pick — Atelier / Night Harbour / "simplify" stays your open door.

1 The three promises (your triple anchor → the machine's jobs)

🧭

Hold the North Star

The mirror works without you having to remember — First Light, the rear-mirror lights, the proof-bar. Your own best words, handed back.

🌊

Protect the present moment

The flow ends at the door. Peaks get kept (the Bottle) and handed back in the days between. The machine never owns the morning.

🛡️

Guard financial security — without pressure

Money silent on the face. One signal line per day at most, only in classes you named. Three numbers at the 2-week gear.

2 Your day, A→Z

Screen time outside the focus hour: under ten minutes. Every step exits cleanly — closing at any point means nothing.

3 Try the morning — a clickable sample

A sample Thursday (week 3 of a chapter). Press next the way you would with coffee — but note (ruled 09.07): the One Page is HOME; the walk is an optional branch, and one tap skips straight to the Runway. The switch on the right shows the same morning inside a dip-window: Card 1 simply carries your own clear-state words, unmarked — the window machinery lives in the Card-Walk.

4 The face — what you see

Click any block for a little more. Badges: what changed vs the 07-08 design (nothing was dropped).

First Light

CHANGED
was C02, page-section
The opening beat, now a standalone card: the line · the lights · the door out.
Position-free — before or after the walk. Rotates your own ratified sentences, the presence insight, Bottle lines from peak days. In a dip-window it carries held evidence instead. Taps again/new teach the rotation.

The One Page

CHANGED
was C01, the whole morning
Slimmed to the 60-second glance: bar, chapter, the ONE move, ≤5 offers.
Balance law: at least one of the ≤5 offers is always a life/container door, and a container-only day is a complete day. Money silent; at most one signal line.

The Card-Walk

NEW SHAPE
renders C10's decision list
One decision per screen — your "click next," literally.
Receipts always first (trust before asks). Every AI-proposed direction wears its badge: RATIFIED (date) or UNRATIFIED — repetition never upgrades a badge, only your word does. Overflow goes to an honest quiet-count, never a wall.

The Runway

CHANGED
C04 + night prework, fused
The focus-hour handoff: move + kick-cue + the bench already laid out.
The night crew stages the workbench: the exact file to open, a draft skeleton, pinned context. You sit down to a set bench, not a blank screen. Afterwards one passive proof-door (count-it / not-proof).

The Release + container door

CHANGED
was C05, mid-list
Now the exit of the flow: what's delegated + one life door + out.
Then silence — no midday surface exists. The system speaks again only when you open it.

Evening doors — catch & the Bottle

NEW
+ existing glance & prep-tomorrow
Two new one-tap doors: catch (this lit me up) and the Bottle (one line to tomorrow-me).
The Bottle is ≤20 seconds, plain text — raw lines land in a gitignored machine-local store (the Cockpit-Local tier, ruled 09.07), never in a tracked file; deeper things belong to the journal, which stays sealed. Peak days get kept here — the direct medicine for "my peaks fade and the days between go unlived."

State-check door + the floor

KEPT
C12
~2 min of light before the phone; on a low morning: sleep? body? one loop?
Answered live, never stored. Dip = weather, not truth — and now partnered by the held evidence in First Light.

2-Week View

CHANGED
C13 + Tailor + embers
The middle gear: what moved, relief vs drag, three money numbers — plus the Tailor's proposals.
Never a review. Ends with the single test, asked once: "Trägt es dich — oder zieht es dich zurück an den Schirm?"

Cycle views (12-week)

KEPT
C14 · C15 · C16 · C17
Close ceremony, onboarding pack, rest-math, freedom-states — delivery reshaped by the Summit Sitting (§7).
The machine prepares for weeks; you choose the next chapter from the front. Rest is priced calmly by numbers; worthiness is not an input.

Markdown Twin

KEPT
C21
The same morning truth as plain vault notes — the forever-fallback face.
Mobile stays a remote control, never the engine room — gated on the sync decision.

5 The night crew — who works while you sleep

ONE scheduled process composes these as sub-steps — never ten daemons. Unattended writes land in staging + render only; no agent ever reads a local-only lane.

Synthesis & Flow Composer

CHANGED
C09 · the heart · strongest model
Reads the whole allowed vault, thinks your tomorrow through, stages one brief.
Now also: picks First Light's line, orders the card-walk, folds in the dip-window timing/evidence, enforces the balance law (≤5 offers, ≥1 life door). It prepares; you decide.

Loops Registrar

KEPT
C07
Holds your real, committed loops; researches them; lifts ONE only when ripe.
Loops ≠ ideas — a maybe never becomes a must. Zero loops shown = nothing was ripe, not a gap.

Bar & Rhythm Keeper

KEPT
C03 / C22 · deterministic, no AI
Renders the proof-bar and rear-mirror straight from your tapped log in cycle.md.
Only grows, never a percentage; a "no" weighs the same as a win. Nothing lands without your tap.

AI/Tech-News Scout

SPLIT
from C06 · your dial
Reads the AI world overnight, slanted to your active build.
Each relevant item gets one line: "what this means for the current build." Default weekly; your dial can make it daily or monthly.

Crypto/Finance Scout

SPLIT
from C06 · your dial
Awareness only — never trade signals, never a runway lens.
Default bi-weekly. Break-through classes exist only if YOU named them (a watched-asset event) — then it surfaces next morning instead of waiting for digest day. Still render-only, never a notification.

Opportunity Radar

KEPT
C18 · later phase
Watches the market continuously; you nugget-hunt once a month.
Flags, never filters — your judgment stays the gate. Feeds the 12-week onboarding pack.

Approval Executor + taps

CHANGED
C10
Turns your one-word taps into receipted, gated writes. Nothing moves without your word.
New tap classes: catch · log-it · stands/reopen/bank · again/new · more/less/keep. A tap that would reverse a RATIFIED decision only executes via the daylight-card path.

Dawn Rebuild + Heartbeat

KEPT
C11
Rebuilds the walk-through before you wake; says honestly when it last ran.
If it fails, the heartbeat says so plainly — never yesterday's page dressed as fresh.

Night-Shelf

CHANGED
C08
What the night actually built: gifts, prework, held evidence.
An empty shelf is a normal morning, not a gap. A full shelf is a bonus, not a baseline.

Continuity Agent

KEPT
C19 · build deferred
Holds the thread through a genuinely low week — holds, never pushes.
Coming back, nothing was dropped and nothing was pushed at you. The thread is exactly where it was.

The Ember Keeper

NEW
organ · §6 below
Your Excitement-Protocol, made mechanical.
Catch → overnight shape-check → evidence pre-positioned for the scheduled dip → daylight cards for anything banked in a low.

The Tailor

NEW
organ · §6 below
The "gets better every time" loop — learns only from what your hand wrote.
≤3 tuning proposals per 2-week sitting; your yes turns them into plain config lines; the next sitting shows the receipts.

Parked, by name (contracts kept, nothing lost): cross-AI overnight roundtable (stays the cohort question) · life-concierge scouts · self-improving loop (folds into the Tailor later) · mobile remote (gated on sync) · adaptive-window learning.

6 The three new organs, up close

🔥 The Ember Keeper — the Begeisterungs-Fänger, wired in

Your ratified protocol (09.07) says: excitement is often real signal — catch it, don't brake it; the doubt arrives ON SCHEDULE 24–72h later; the medicine is your own held evidence plus the body, never more analysis. The cockpit owns exactly the two moments this needs: the evening (catch) and the morning (hand-back).

T-0 · evening
Catch
A session logs it, or one catch tap, or a Bottle line on a peak day. Zero friction, zero forms.
that night
Shape-check
The four gates: front/exposed · replaceable · checkpointed · scaffolded. Exposed-shaped → a re-shape proposal, never a brake.
next morning
One tap: log-it
A drafted prediction line (shape · call · flip · confidence) — five seconds, through the gate.
T+24–72h
The window
First Light's rotation selects your held evidence (unmarked); the Card-Walk carries the badge + "New evidence, or the dip?" The timing does the work.
daylight
The docket
Anything banked in a low comes back in the clear: stands / reopen (name the evidence) / bank. Never dismissed.

Clarity-protection: ratified decisions wear their badge, date, review-date and exits. The machine never initiates a reversal. Protection, never a freeze.

🪡 The Tailor — why it gets better every single week

It learns ONLY from what your hand already wrote: taps, dial turns, again/new, tomorrow-carries, Bottle lines. It never reads the journal, any LOCAL file, open-counts or read-times. Silence is not data — an untapped item trains nothing.

2 weeks of taps
Distill
The night before the sitting.
at the sitting
≤3 proposals
"Lead the flow with the container step?" — declarative, recommendation first; the tap-count sits behind an optional show why tap, never leads (ruled 09.07). Ignored = expires, no residue.
your yes
Plain config
Readable, editable, deletable lines. The setting persists; the story behind it never does.
next sitting
The receipts
"Since your last yes: the flow leads with the container step; crypto went monthly." Growth you can see, attributable to your own word.

Anti-cave guard: the Tailor tunes config only — never new features, inputs or sections. Feature growth stays in deliberate build sessions.

🎚️ The Cadence Dial — your hand on every scout's throttle

AI / tech news
dailyweeklybi-weeklymonthlyoff
slant: what it means for the current build
Crypto / finance
dailyweeklybi-weeklymonthlyoff
awareness only · break-throughs = deterministic thresholds YOU set (source · threshold · evaluator · tie-breaker) — never an AI judgment at 3am
Opportunity radar
dailyweeklybi-weeklymonthlyoff
feeds the 12-week pack only

Every digest footer: more / less / keep — the dial moves only by your tap. One-signal rule: at most ONE break-through line per day, total, across all sources; a second one rides tomorrow. A break-through changes which day something surfaces — it is never a notification.

7 The three gears

Daily · <10 min screen

The walk-through

  • Five cards, "next" between them
  • Life before business, always
  • The night did the heavy lifting
  • Skipping a day means nothing
Every 2 weeks · light

The recalibration

  • What moved · relief vs drag · kill-lines due
  • Three money numbers, one glance
  • The Tailor's ≤3 proposals + receipts
  • The ember review, by decision-class
  • The single test, asked once
Every 12 weeks · a ritual

The Summit Sitting

  • Close: the chapter replayed stone by stone — receiving, not earning
  • The pack goes walkable: ~15 min spoken brief + a pocket twin — delivery device TBD at the sync decision; print/Mac is the ungated fallback
  • Up a mountain: felt read → voice notes
  • Ratify where your clear state lives — sign at the desk, through the gate
  • The desk version always exists; the walk is a door, never choreography

8 The Law Ring — why you can hand it your life and stay sovereign

unattended writes → staging + render only deep-personal lanes sealed — no cockpit process reads them, ever render-only · no notifications · no auto-open nothing counts or files without your tap no chains, no scores, no guilt mechanics money silent until you fill money-config loops ≠ ideas · a maybe never becomes a must ≤3 decisions per batch, recommendation first Sonnet for mechanics · strongest model for judgment NEW: every AI proposal wears RATIFIED / UNRATIFIED RULED 09.07: the Cockpit-Local tier — enumerated gitignored files the engine may read; renders only to gitignored surfaces
