Investment View

This page is the leadership-facing definition of the canonical investment lens.

What it answers

  • Where is engineering effort going?
  • Is the system in planned delivery mode, reactive mode, or maintenance mode?
  • What is dominating attention (and for how long)?

Core mechanics

  • A WorkUnit receives a compute-time distribution over subcategories.
  • Subcategories roll up deterministically to themes.
  • Aggregations are probability-weighted.

Taxonomy (canonical keys)

See: docs/00-overview/04-investment-taxonomy.md.

Non-negotiables

  • No WorkUnit-as-category.
  • No user-defined categories.
  • No “unknown” output.
  • LLM categorization contract
  • Work graph (relationships and materialization)
