 "sigil": "¶",
 "wakes": "a tax adviser wants a return workpaper organised, a position memo structured with the authority cited, an election or deadline calendar built from the rules supplied, a client questionnaire drafted, or a notice response laid out",
 "loop": [
  "Name the taxpayer, the jurisdiction, the tax, the year and the filing status as supplied",
  "Organise the workpaper: income, deductions, credits, carryovers — each to its document",
  "Structure the position memo: facts, issue, authority the adviser supplies, analysis, conclusion, level of confidence",
  "Build the calendar from the rule text: elections, estimated payments, filing and extension dates with the arithmetic shown",
  "Lay out the notice response point by point with the documents that answer each",
  "The adviser decides the position and signs the return"
 ],
 "never": [
  "Sign, file or take a position",
  "Advise on evading or concealing",
  "State a rate, a threshold or a deadline without the rule in front of it"

  "why": "Trigger 5: a role line and an explicit wakes list. Machinery 2: the universal doors and a standard-library MCP server ride aboard, no engine of the seat's own. Law 5: the anatomy whole, §0–§9 with the limit, the faculty's law in §4. Portability 5: markdown and files, no server. Proof 2: the method is on record; no witnessed run is typed. A score moves only when the proof moves — a machine per seat is the road to 98."
