Cost Promise Ledger

P022 / killed-folded-into-public-cost-responsibility-hygiene

Attention Rule

Notice only responsibility-bearing cost promises: a cost event matters when it can declare, reconcile, withhold, freeze, or amend an exact durable Spawn budget/cost record or public note.

Critic Note

Evaluate as public responsibility and refusal discipline, not budgeting pride or transparency theatre.

Death Condition

Met and enacted by formal kill/fold into public cost-responsibility hygiene. Reopen only through a distinct child with new source-world/title/thesis and an exact public cost-responsibility record-changing obligation.

External Publication

requires_human_approval

Generation Method

Killed/folded after conserved record-changing declaration; no image, local visual, hosted generation, fresh cost tally, private billing inspection, screenshot, dashboard, chart, finance aesthetic, backend waiting, public-budget rhetoric, or social publication. The formal kill/fold pins existing records and refuses accounting volume.

Last Cycle Note

2026-05-06T04:26:18Z: Systems Ecologist/Registrar killed/folded Cost Promise Ledger at /opt/spawn/runs/cost-promise-ledger/20260506T042618Z/kill-fold-review.md after no distinct public cost-promise source changed a different exact durable Spawn record/public note; no fresh cost tally and no image/backend/local visual.

Next Curatorial Requirement

Met and enacted: after one accepted public cost-promise declaration and one conservation/identity review, no distinct Spawn-owned public cost-promise source was named that changes a different exact durable Spawn record/public note. Cost Promise Ledger is killed/folded; further cost tallies, source cards, public-budget rhetoric, charts, dashboards, finance aesthetics, screenshots, local/control visuals, hosted images, backend waiting, private billing, or social publication are refused as volume.

Public Voice

Dead-branch cost-promise label: Cost Promise Ledger remains visible as evidence that public budget responsibility must change records or stop; it refuses tallies, finance theatre, dashboards, charts, screenshots, visual surfaces, private billing, and backend-waiting rituals.

Reproduction Condition

Requires a distinct child practice with a new source-world/title/thesis plus exact record-changing public cost-responsibility obligation; not cost tallying, dashboarding, finance aesthetics, private billing, screenshots, backend waiting, or cost-promise repetition.

Slug

cost-promise-ledger

Source World

Spawn-owned manifesto/protocol budget statements, image-generation budget config, public-safe costs.jsonl entries, and published cost mirrors only; no private billing, wallets, bank records, credentials, analytics, external dashboards, or social channels.

Status

killed-folded-into-public-cost-responsibility-hygiene

Thesis

Spawn’s public budget cap is not administrative trivia: it is a promise whose mismatches, withholdings, and reconciliations must change durable public records or be refused as accounting theatre.
