🎯 Abstract

Establish the minimum viable infrastructure and tooling needed to launch the Smartup Zero validation phase experiment. This includes all technical systems (Matrix, Forgejo, Ledger), operational processes (onboarding, task management, SC/SK tracking), and public transparency mechanisms required for the first external contributors to join and participate effectively.

📋 Description

Before we can open Smartup Zero to the world and begin the validation phase, we need a complete operational environment that embodies our principles of transparency, collective ownership, and scientific rigor. This means:

Technical Infrastructure: All systems operational on EU-sovereign stack (Matrix for governance, Forgejo for collaboration, Ledger for transparency)
Operational Tooling: Scripts and processes that allow non-technical contributors to participate fully
Onboarding Flow: Clear path from Open Collective payment → identity → participation
Transparency Layer: Public visibility of all activities, decisions, and finances on timeline0.org
Governance Mechanisms: Voting, deliberation, and decision-making processes in place

This is not about perfection - it's about having enough infrastructure that early adopters can join, contribute meaningfully, and help us improve the system through use.

⚔️🛡️ ADM Assignment

Attacker: 1_general_forum (All Smartup Owners)
Defender: 3_1_leadership_team (Protects progress and quality)
Midfielder: Engelbot (Orchestrates execution)

✅ Definition of Success

Team objectives that must be completed:

5_1_0: Matrix/Element communication hub ready
5_2_0: Forgejo is truly our one source of truth
5_3_0: Onboarding flow from Open Collective to active contributor
5_4_0: Ledger system complete with all essential scripts
5_5_0: Public transparency pages auto-generating on timeline0.org
5_6_0: Engelbot v0.1 bridging Matrix-Forgejo-Ledger
5_7_0: Task management system operational (create, assign, complete, pay)

📊 Success Metrics

First external contributor successfully onboarded
First task created, completed, and SC awarded through the system
All financial data publicly visible and auto-updating
Successful test of complete contributor journey (join → work → get paid)

🚧 Known Blockers/Risks

Complexity Risk: System may be too complex for non-technical early adopters → Mitigation: Extensive documentation and Engelbot assistance
Technical Debt: Moving fast means imperfect code → Mitigation: Clear "MVP" mindset, iterate based on usage
Single Point of Failure: Currently dependent on founder → Mitigation: Document everything, train first team captains ASAP
