Launching a Post with only scope.md and a Directive. The Post operates in permanent Pressure State -- every run generates Debt, no output ships without human review. The entry wedge for teams on Day 1.
Human ↔ Agent Interface
Human–Agent Interface terms govern the operational boundary between Station and Post — how AI agents are deployed, how they escalate to humans, and how humans maintain meaningful control without micromanaging. This is the layer that makes the human-agentic model governable rather than merely capable.

Commissioning
The act of deploying a Post. A Station commissions a Post by completing The Groundwork -- all four documents, all gates cleared. Formal and intentional.
Pressure State
A declared condition where gates convert from walls into speedbumps. Posts can execute outside Contracts. Every bypass generates an entry in the Debt Ledger.
The Debt Ledger
Every bypass in Pressure State generates a Debt entry. Debt is a calculated loan taken against the Expedition's future bandwidth. Every loan must be repaid.
The Groundwork
The four-document protocol a Station must complete before Commissioning any Post. Scope, Contracts, Testing, Prompting. Posts that drift were built without it.
scope.md
The living contract of what is in-scope and explicitly out-of-scope for a Post. Scope creep is not an AI flaw -- it is a missing scope.md.
