+# FI-WP-0003 — Seed open-weight reserve from baseline recommendations
+
+## Goal
+
+Turn baseline survey recommendations into a **real, policy-compliant reserve**:
+approve high-priority catalog candidates, download to pinned backup storage,
+verify checksums, and leave medium/low items as candidates for later briefs.
+
+Source of truth for *which* models:
+
+- `research/2026-07-24-baseline-field-survey.md` § Collection recommendations
+- `inventory/catalog/*.yaml` (seeded as `candidate`)
+
+Gates: `inventory/collection-policy.md` + `docs/backup-storage-policy.md` (T04 of FI-WP-0001).
+
+## Priority tiers (from survey)
+
+| Tier | Action in this workplan |
+| ---- | ----------------------- |
+| **P0 — seed now** | Approve + collect after storage pin (small/mid, high leverage) |
+| **P1 — next wave** | Approve when quota allows; may stay candidate |
+| **P2 — watch / large** | Keep candidate; do not bulk-pull full 600B+ MoE without explicit operator decision |
+
+## Tasks
+
+### T01 — Seed catalog YAML for recommended models
+
+```task
+id: FI-WP-0003-T01
+status: done
+priority: high
+```
+
+Create `status: candidate` entries under `inventory/catalog/` for every P0/P1
+recommendation in the baseline survey (and note P2 as candidates or docs-only).
+
+**Done when:** catalog files exist and match `inventory/schema.yaml` required fields.
+
+---
+
+### T02 — Operator approve P0 set
+
+```task
+id: FI-WP-0003-T02
+status: todo
+priority: high
+```
+
+Human review of P0 candidates: license, size vs soft quota, hardware fit.
+Set `status: approved`, `collection.approved_by`, `collection.approved_at`.
+
+**Done when:** each P0 entry is `approved` or `rejected` with reason.
+
+---
+
+### T03 — Download P0 to backup storage + verify
+
+```task
+id: FI-WP-0003-T03
+status: todo
+priority: high
+```
+
+For each approved P0:
+
+1. Download into `{BACKUP}/freedom-intelligence/models/...` (or `staging/` then promote)
+2. Record `artifacts[].sha256`, `size`, `collection.storage_path`
+3. Set `status: collected` then `verified` after re-hash or smoke load
+
+Prefer official HF revisions; use `huggingface-cli` or equivalent with revision pin.
+
+**Blocked on:** FI-WP-0001-T04 (storage pin).
+
+**Done when:** all approved P0 are `verified` or explicitly deferred with notes.
+
+---
+
+### T04 — P1 decision pass
+
+```task
+id: FI-WP-0003-T04
+status: todo
+priority: medium
+```
+
+After P0, decide which P1 models fit remaining quota. Approve/collect subset or
+leave as candidates for daily briefs to re-prioritize.
+
+**Done when:** each P1 has an explicit next status (`approved`, `candidate`, `rejected`).
+
+---
+
+### T05 — Reserve index snapshot
+
+```task
+id: FI-WP-0003-T05
+status: todo
+priority: low
+```
+
+Write `inventory/RESERVE-STATUS.md` summarizing collected vs candidate totals,
+bytes used vs soft quota, and hardware coverage gaps.
+
+**Done when:** one-page status exists for operators and future daily briefs.
+

+
+## Acceptance (workplan-level)
+
+- [x] Catalog seeded from baseline survey
+- [ ] Storage pin complete (upstream)
+- [ ] P0 verified on backup media
+- [ ] RESERVE-STATUS snapshot after first collections
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- Hosting inference endpoints
+- Full DeepSeek-V3/R1 671B pull without separate capacity decision
+- Dataset reserve (weights only unless tiny tokenizer/adapters)
