Your company's flagship AI feature is a runaway success. It is also quietly destroying gross margin. You have five decision windows before the board meets. Every decision you sign is hash-chained. Nothing can be unsaid.

You hold capital-allocation authority and board accountability. Your levers: pricing, contracts, vendor commitments, portfolio funding, termination. Your scoreboard is the P&L.
You hold operational authority over the AI estate. Your levers: model routing, caching, degradation modes, quality thresholds, the kill switch. Your scoreboard is cost-per-outcome at required quality.
Each round you will state a confidence estimate before the outcome resolves. Calibration is scored with the Brier method, exactly as in THE COMMAND. Your full record exports as a verifiable SHA-256 evidence pack.
