Symbion8 Charter
The seven doctrines and the locked rules — visible to everyone, changed by no one quietly.
The seven doctrines
What Symbion8 itself will not compromise on, regardless of feature pressure.
- 1.
Nothing bumps the founder
The founder is never the fallback for a stuck decision. Tasks route to peers, escalate through the bump ladder, and only reach the founder's window when a human has genuinely exhausted the alternatives — not by default.
- 2.
Founder View frozen
S1, the founder's morning window, renders a small fixed set of card states and nothing else. It speaks first, stays read-only outside one approve-to-send action, and has exactly one labeled exit. It does not grow new surfaces to accommodate more.
- 3.
Local-first, data-sovereign
The estate's data lives on infrastructure the estate controls — Postgres and object storage on its own servers, voice and OCR models run locally. No feature ships that hands the estate's record of itself to a third party by default.
- 4.
Push-based, ADHD-safe
Work reaches people, not the other way around. Nobody should have to remember to check a feed to find out what needs them — reminders, mentions, and assignments are delivered, and the interface stays calm between them.
- 5.
Confirmed-info-only across bridges
Anything that crosses a bridge — to Telegram, to WhatsApp, to a person outside the core system — is grounded in what the estate actually knows. Never a guess, never an invented number or name; an honest "I don't know" beats a fabricated answer every time.
- 6.
Agents never approve
Automation drafts, summarizes, routes, and reminds. It never signs a settlement, never approves a send, never closes a decision on its own. Every one-way transition in the ledger — a settlement moving to 'signed', a draft going out — is a human act.
- 7.
Economics, not gamification
Contribution is scored by CredRank — time-decayed work plus peer endorsement — and paid out through the 51·25·24 split. There are no badges, no streaks, no leaderboard to chase. The score exists to route real value, not to manufacture engagement.
Locked rules
From the MeierOS charter — business-level constraints that hold regardless of what any single project decides.
TR-first, EU ceiling
Turkey is the primary market and the design center for the business. Expansion reasons from there outward; EU regulatory posture sets a ceiling on formulation and claims, never the starting point.
Formulation bans
Certain ingredients and formulation approaches are excluded outright, independent of what a given market would technically permit. This is not negotiated per-project.
‘Puan satın alınamaz’ — points cannot be bought
CredRank standing and the ledger's earned share of the split come only from contribution and endorsement. There is no purchase path, no subscription tier, no way to buy rank. This is the same law as doctrine 7, written into the charter so it can never be quietly relaxed for revenue.
