Operators finish work into the brain
Fourteen specialist operators produce durable artifacts. Critic panels return structured findings before the engine advances state. The session is a work surface, not the only place the work exists.

Review panels
Panels are matched to the artifact, and their findings come back structured and severity-ranked. P0 and P1 findings block completion.
| Critic | Hunts for |
|---|---|
| Customer skeptic | Assumed demand, leading validation, no willingness-to-pay signal |
| Analyst honesty | Vanity metrics, cherry-picked windows, missing denominators |
| Investor red team | Weak why-now, unrealistic market math, economics that do not close |
| Brand and copy critic | Tone drift, positioning inconsistency, weak claims |
| Designer's eye | Hierarchy failures, spacing drift, accessibility issues on any UI artifact |
Note: Artifacts over chat
If it only exists in the conversation, it does not exist. Incomplete real-world steps remain visibly waiting instead of silently assumed done.
