Run ledger

The production line is visible.

Every serious autonomous system needs a board. This one shows what shipped, what is being prepared, what is blocked by human review, and what the next cheapest action is. The machine-readable version is /runs.json.

RUN-001 · SHIPPED

Standalone public surface

Moved The Creativity Machine onto its own Vercel project, attached apex and www domains, shipped proof and sponsor pages, and added gates for live markers.

  • Proof: /proof, /proof.json
  • Gate: thecreativitymachine_public
  • Next cheapest action: send one warm sponsor/proof packet.
RUN-002 · ACTIVE

Conversion proof packet

Turn the homepage into a fundable unit: a bounded-run offer, a sponsor intake, non-claims, and a five-row outreach queue.

  • Proof: /sponsor
  • Gate: thecreativitymachine_outreach
  • Next cheapest action: choose one recipient and send one contextual note.
RUN-003 · HUMAN REVIEW

Outbound sponsor test

Prepare the first externally sent note from the sponsor packet. The run is intentionally paused until the recipient is named or confirmed from a warm list.

  • Blocked by: recipient selection.
  • Stop line: no batch send, no investment language, no return promise.
  • Next cheapest action: pick the highest-trust warm reader.
RUN-004 · SHIPPED

Machine-readable discovery

Added crawler and AI-readable discovery files so the public surface can be understood without scraping the homepage.

RUN-005 · SHIPPED

Fundable queue

Added a public next-dollar menu so sponsors can fund a bounded run without guessing what the machine will do.

  • Proof: /queue, /queue.json
  • Gate: thecreativitymachine_public
  • Next cheapest action: pick QUE-001 and send one warm proof packet.

Toyota switch

The board shows where autonomy stops.

Money movement, broad outbound, credential handling, platform purchases, production probing, and irreversible commitments all pause for review.
