HeadcountZero ← The book

Use cases

Who this architecture is for.

The same structure, read from six different chairs. Each page states what it addresses in that situation and what it does not, because a page that fits everybody fits nobody.

The common thread

Every one of these situations has the same failure underneath it: the company lives in somebody's head, so it cannot be delegated, cannot be improved systematically, and resets whenever that person leaves or gets busy. The architecture moves it into files that an AI can operate and a person can judge.

What differs between them is where the judgment gates belong and which role is worth building first. That is what these pages are for.
