# Shared concepts

The Shared section holds the concepts common to every OpenYield audience —
Nomads and Freeholders alike. These are the covenant-level ideas that make
OpenYield a public-good mesh rather than a custodial platform.

- [Six Principles](six-principles.md) — the immutable covenant (REQ-001).
- [Bread Scale](bread-scale.md) — the unit of value and its 11 tiers (REQ-013).
- [Storage Pools](storage-pools.md) — the three pools (Stash, Vault, Root-Pool) (REQ-014).
- [Watchers & Mirror](watchers-mirror.md) — the 9 Watchers, 6-of-9 quorum, the Mirror (REQ-004).
- [Lexicon](lexicon.md) — why 10 terms are banned, and what to say instead (REQ-012).
- [Vision](vision.md) — the OpenYield covenant in brief.

See the [README](../index.md) for build instructions, or the
[Nomads](../nomads/index.md) and [Freeholders](../freeholders/index.md)
sections for audience-specific docs.
