Three pillars:
(A) Strategic Direction
NORTH_STAR.mdauthored (Vision, 4 Objectives, 5 Anti-Goals, Non-Goals, 12-18mo Targets with grounding, Success Criteria)- Attestation clarification: human at stage gates (QA for production, SRE for operational readiness); autonomy in operations, not in accountability
- Wired into CIAgent context-loading (
config.jsonstrategic_direction_file) for all future/ci-run - NORTH_STAR diff-check CI script (REQ-204)
(B) Leadership Metrics + PowerBI
- CloudEvents 1.0 envelope + JSONL event log + SQLite cold store (Nova-native, D-120)
- Decision Ledger:
outbox_writer.pyextended → SQLite append-only hash-chain (D-121, D-083 honored) - Infracost pre-apply cost estimates (offline, D-120)
- Attestation event instrumentation (D-132)
- Confidence-gate decision events (D-122: AI = confidence-gated policy engine, not LLM)
- Policy event emission (checkov_adapter)
- PowerBI export: CSV/JSON views + 8 placeholder views for deferred metrics (D-129)
- Metrics catalog:
docs/METRICS.md+ 13 per-KPI definition-of-success docs (D-127) - Trust snapshot report (5 trust metrics + chain-integrity verdict)
- Deferred-metrics activation roadmap + hot-path plan
- No-humans thesis defensibility brief
(C) Unified Narrative Deck
- Merged two decks into one: 'Nova — The No-Humans Infrastructure Platform'
- 5-act arc: Problem → Vision → How → Proof → Roadmap
- x3 structure at deck + slide level (tell them what you're going to tell them → tell them → tell them what you told them)
- Per-slide benefit callouts + fluid transitions
- Both old decks retired (D-130)
Hard constraint honored: DO NOT make anything up. Every metric is grounded (cites source file), derived (documented formula), or deferred (cites blocking decision ID). No fabricated numbers.
Interactive GRILL: 12 binding decisions applied, 2 escalations resolved (E-003: 3 targets reclassified to Post-Pilot; E-004: AI-Agent Intent Share moved to Future Horizons).
13 decisions locked: D-120..D-132.
29 requirements (REQ-185..213) satisfied. 94 tests pass. CAP-023 + CAP-024 Verified.
