# Unattended dogfood acceptance and founder-load envelope (G3–G4)

## Goal

1. **G3:** Package acceptance evidence that at least one end-to-end Green/Blue
   loop runs unattended with audit trail (already largely built in BINKY-WP-0004/0006).  
2. **G4:** Define and start a ≥30-day founder-load measurement against the
   1–3 h/day + ~2 OH days/month envelope.

Parent goal: `79a2b057-…`. Depends on foundation maps; can run in parallel
with UPC-WP-0002 after T01 evidence folder exists.

## Linked children

| ID / artefact | Role |
| --- | --- |
| BINKY-WP-0004, 0006 | Executor + llm-connect rhythm (finished) |
| AWQ-011 / REIN-A-0003 / ops_run `ad0b05c4-…` | Weekly review production proof |
| `audits/OK-Audit-v0-binky.md` | Dogfood audit |
| `OperatingRhythm.md`, `briefs/` | Cadence evidence |
| *missing* load metric | G4 design needed in binky-control |

## Tasks (proposed — activate when UPC-WP-0002 is underway or G1 not blocking)

```task
id: UPC-WP-0003-T01
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "e2437c6e-580d-4ad9-924d-d04b7e4a054b"
```

Write `evidence/g3-dogfood-acceptance.md` linking finished child WPs, audit,
and at least one production ops_run; list any residual that prevents founder
S3 mark.

```task
id: UPC-WP-0003-T02
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "c15f290f-04b5-4878-8a21-c6c9795a0811"
```

Specify founder-load measurement (what counts, log location, Red exceptions)
in a short design note under `architecture/` and ensure a live residual or
child intake in `binky-control` owns ongoing logging.

```task
id: UPC-WP-0003-T03
status: todo
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "fee4912b-f0a1-4bae-8955-96c7f3e5e250"
```

After ≥30 days of measurement (or first checkpoint), update gate-map G3/G4
and prepare founder decision packages for S3 / load-budget claims.

## Acceptance

- G3 evidence pack complete; S3 mark requested or residual explicit  
- G4 measurement live as a work record outside this file’s prose
