Decision

FORGE v3 final consolidation + runwal-forge SKILL.md v1.0.0 → v2.0.0. All 8 founding questions resolved 2026-05-14: Q1 no pilot in foundation (pilot becomes separate workstream post-Phase-3 CTO-approved), Q2 no Hostinger migration (Forge is purpose-built fresh, Hostinger stays AJ-personal hobby), Q3 GitHub Runwal.ai org as canonical source for all Runwal AI code/IaC (URL pending CTO share), Q4 vault deferred to Phase 2 (Forge-owned, decided at boundary), Q5 domain runwal.ai purchase target 2026-05-31, Q6 email + Telegram (Phase 0-2) → Slack (Phase 3+), Q7 Strict Compliance (ISO 27001 + SOC 2 + DPDP Act 2023 + RERA 7yr retention) from Day 1, Q8 AJ-CTO only on-call for Phase 0-3. Cost envelope shifted 615/mo steady-state due to Q7 compliance overhead (+50 → 640 at Phase 0 kickoff. Phase plan REWRITTEN (foundation-only, no pilot): Phase 0 Foundation Provisioning, Phase 1 Compute+Substrate+Observability, Phase 2 Agent Fleet Substrate + Vault, Phase 3 Production Hardening + Pilot Readiness. New Hard Rules #11 (no Hostinger copy-paste — Forge is purpose-built fresh) + #12 (no speculative deploys — every component must be strategically necessary at deploy time). Open decisions table cleared (all 8 resolved); replaced with Future Decision Tracker (4 entries: D-FUTURE-1 pilot project type, D-FUTURE-2 vault backing, D-FUTURE-3 Slack timing, D-FUTURE-4 capacity scaling triggers). Skill expanded to 290 lines (under 400 target), R11 dual-mirror clean, autoloader registered, 8-point Pristine Sweep clean. MEMORY.md cascaded with v3 facts. Authority chain unchanged: Runwal Enterprises owns → AJ-CTO principal → Claude designer/builder/operator. Alternatives rejected: keep 540 envelope by deferring compliance (violates Q7 explicit acceptance + customer SaaS requires day-1 compliance); migrate Hostinger components by default (violates Q2 — Hostinger is AJ-personal hobby); ship pilot in Phase 1 (violates Q1 — foundation-first meticulous approach).

Rationale

CTO provided definitive answers to all 8 founding questions in a single consolidation pass. v3 reflects each answer faithfully + makes structural changes (phase rewrite, hard rule additions, cost shift) demanded by the answer set. Skill update follows setup-curator format contract (frontmatter explicit triggers, sections ≤400 lines, self-evolution cascade built in). All cross-references resolve cleanly. The skill now serves as canonical truth for any future Forge session.
