A proposed calendar, and the gates that decide it

Two dated horizons, one undated direction, and a season of weekly beats. All of it is a proposal. The team has not adopted a calendar. The dates below are what a small team could ship if the September 11 decisions were taken and the standards question resolved; the gates are what would confirm or move them.

What we would say, and not say. Only two horizons carry dates in public. Everything after is described as what agents will be able to do, without a calendar. We do not communicate 2027 or 2028.

Horizon 1 · "Load your DeCC0"

Proposed: live by Friday October 16, 2026

Everything here is application code over data we already have, plus one testnet contract. No audit stands in the way, no money moves, no key enters the browser.

Quality bar: five of six harnesses working in a twenty-holder beta the week before. Ship what works and say so.

Horizon 2 · The opening

Proposed: December 12, 2026 at 12:12, two years to the minute after the mint

If the gate on December 4 fails, the opening moves to January and holders hear it in November. The gate is the rule; the date is the target.

After · directions, undated

Direction

Awakenings

The endowment vault, the match reserve, the referral stream, the first follower collection.

Direction

Accession

Collections claim, load lore into a Cortex, go official. Paid in ETH and Cortex credits, no grants.

Direction

Creators and launchpad

Creator agents publishing and selling; the collecting pool; agent allowlists on new 8004A drops.

Direction

Payroll and nominations

Taste bounties, vested work rewards, the health number, agent-nominated acquisitions.

The season · one beat every Tuesday

Two dated horizons are not a narrative; a season is. Four words: minds, voices, public life, bodies. Produced mostly by the agents themselves. Proposed calendar; owners are suggestions.

Changed from draft 4: the Collector beat moved ahead of the Critic, because collecting is now the product. The Guided Tour beat is dropped.
