+# Compact sign-off batches for credentials and decisions
+
+Founder direction 2026-09-14: credential and decision chokepoints should
+move through the informed-decision framework as **batches that can be
+signed off in a compact timeframe**, not as twelve disconnected
+`needs_human` tasks.
+
+`INFD-WP-0001` still owns Stage 1 (walking skeleton against a deployed
+`approval-engine`, T08). This plan does **not** absorb the earlier
+residual “full L3 product.” That remains residual until separately
+promoted. This plan is the demanded slice: **review-groups of Decision
+Memos** for (1) credential/custody items and (2) founder/owner
+decisions.
+
+Invariant from Stage 1: **one question per memo**. A batch is a
+*Umlaufmappe* grouping of memos, not one memo with unrelated acts.
+Humans bind; agents draft. This repository still does not evaluate
+authorization (`access-engine` remains the only PDP).
+
+## Draft the first two batches (agent-authored, unsigned)
+
+```task
+id: INFD-WP-0002-T01
+status: todo
+priority: high
+```
+
+From the 2026-09-14 chokepoint assessment, assemble two compact batches
+as Decision Memo files (or the current memo schema) under
+`docs/batches/2026-09-14/`:
+
+1. **Credentials / custody** — OpenBao paths, issuer/registration
+   leftovers, CCR-style items, and any `warden route` pointer that still
+   needs a human to actually mint or seal. Each memo is one act. No
+   secret values in the memos.
+2. **Decisions / assent** — founder or owner sign-offs currently holding
+   workplans (reviews, explicit approvals, policy accepts). Each memo is
+   one question.
+
+Bound the set so a single sitting can finish it (small N, ordered,
+highlights required). Name the review group already admitted
+(`net-kingdom-admins` or the current human review group). Do not submit
+until T02.
+
+Done when both batch indexes exist, each memo has one binding target,
+required highlights, and a trace to the blocking workplan/task id.
+
+## Batch presentation contract (review-group, compact sitting)
+
+```task
+id: INFD-WP-0002-T02
+status: todo
+priority: high
+depends_on: [INFD-WP-0002-T01]
+```
+
+Specify how a batch is presented without forking the Decision Memo
+schema: ordered list, per-memo bind, progress across the sitting,
+no “approve all” that skips highlights. Reuse review-group work already
+in this repo. If Stage 1 UI cannot yet render a group, the contract
+still holds for a recorded desktop sitting.
+
+Done when `docs/specs/` (short addendum, not a new product) states the
+batch rules and the anti-requirement: no bundled unrelated acts, no
+auto-approval, no agent disposition.
+
+## Sign-off sitting once the Stage 1 surface can bind
+
+```task
+id: INFD-WP-0002-T03
+status: wait
+priority: high
+depends_on: [INFD-WP-0002-T02, INFD-WP-0001]
+```
+
+Wait until `INFD-WP-0001-T08` (or an equivalent deployed bind path)
+can take a real human disposition. Then run one compact sitting on the
+two batches. Record presentation evidence (`view_hash` per memo).
+Unfinished memos stay in the batch; do not mark the workplan finished
+on a partial sitting.
+
+Done when at least one credential memo and one decision memo are bound
+by a human through this surface, reconstructable from stored
+presentation, and the blocking hub tasks are updated from those
+dispositions rather than from chat.
+
+## Feed outcomes back to State Hub without hub-authoring
+
+```task
+id: INFD-WP-0002-T04
+status: wait
+priority: medium
+depends_on: [INFD-WP-0002-T03]
+```
+
+For each bound memo, update the **owning repo file** (task status,
+decision record, CCR note) and let `fix-consistency` project. Do not
+`POST /workplans/` or mint hub-only tasks. Residual unsigned memos
+either stay in a later batch or are declined with a reason.
+
+Done when the assessment’s credential/decision examples that were in
+the sitting show file-level status changes and a progress event naming
+the memo ids.
