Plant the AI seed that compounds
One sharp capability. Acceptance tests. Cost caps. A two-week window so experiments become product — not a demo graveyard. Speed when the spark needs it; kill criteria when it needs an exit.

Why seed, not "platform"
Early teams don't need a multi-agent monorepo. They need one wedge users return for — measured, capped, and ready to expand.
