The Sovereign Finance Doctrine

§1 · What the Finance Hub Is

CircularOS has accumulated ~50 finance surfaces across the sovereign and public sides — Capital Command, Treasury, Red Two/Three/Four equity dashboards, Genesis & Covenant, dPRN & Exchange, Grants, Valuation/Reports. They were correct individually but un-indexed collectively.

The Finance Hub at /finance-hub is the single index. The hub is read-mostly; the only writeable surface on it is the Red Two equity anchor — and that writes through to one persistent file used by every other finance page.

§2 · The 37.5% Red Two Anchor · Single Source of Truth

"Red Number Two" = 37.5% — the Strategic Anchor Partner equity grant. It appears across finance-ltd · red-dashboard · genesis-transaction · ecosystem-map · prospectus · master-document-11 · hurricane-pricing and several admin pages.

Before this build the figure was hard-coded in each template. Now it is read from one endpoint:

Persistence file: red_two_percentage.json · default 37.5 · stamps updated_at + updated_by on every write.

Editor surfaces: /finance-hub (inline) and /admin/red-team (existing sovereign-side editor). Either edits the same number.

§3 · The Eight Finance Categories

§4 · The Standing Trigger Doctrine · ABL Auto-Engage

Operator instruction (verbatim, May 2026): "if she gets A-levels unexpected it should be standard, so if ABL kicks in and when it does — automatically. That's why we do that and when we do that."

Translation into doctrine: no positive shock should require an ad-hoc decision. When a known event-type fires, the standardised response runs without manual intervention. The Finance Hub holds the trigger map.

The trigger engine itself is TBC (placeholder); MD-477 codifies the rules so when the engine ships, the responses are already standardised.

§5 · Standing Solicitor & Standing Accountant

Both engagements are placeholders by design: defined now, named later.

• Sovereign Solicitor — permit-transfer specialist (Anthesis or Veolia legal line already drafted at /section-59-acquisition) · £3-6k retainer · auto-fires on any §4 trigger involving asset transfer, equity change >5%, or §59 closure.
• Sovereign Accountant — auto-fires on year-end, EPR submission, grant disbursement, dividend declaration, or any of the 12 capital-door events. CSV exporter at /admin/filings already feeds them.
• Selection criteria — both must accept the Sovereign Vocabulary, the Truth Ledger as canonical record, and the dPRN as a recognised asset class. Vetting pack ships when names are decided.

§6 · The Six Axioms of Sovereign Finance

1. One hub indexes every money surface. Read-mostly. No duplication.
2. One number for the Red Two anchor. 37.5% lives in one file · is read everywhere · is editable in one place.
3. No ad-hoc response to known shocks. Triggers fire standard responses by doctrine.
4. ABL is automatic. When collateral + receivables threshold met, the stack engages.
5. Solicitor + Accountant are standing engagements. Named or not, the rules of engagement exist.
6. Every change is timestamped + actor-stamped. Truth Ledger semantics applied to finance edits.

§7 · How to Add a New Finance Page

1. Pick the category (1-8) — palette is fixed by category.
2. Build the page · use distinct gradient per diagram colour policy.
3. If it displays the Red Two anchor, fetch from /api/finance/red-two-percentage — never hard-code 37.5.
4. Add a card to the matching category in /finance-hub.
5. If it triggers a standardised response, add it to the §4 trigger map.
6. Seal to op_ledger.
