# Decision: Confirm initial activation levels

Status: Open  
Date: 2026-06-22  
Record: DEC-001

## Context

`PROJECT_LANDSCAPE.md` assigns activation levels to each organization in the
forge landscape. These levels govern how much delivery pressure each topic
receives and which items may become commitments.

## Options

### Option 1 — Accept draft levels as proposed

| Organization | Level |
|---|---|
| binky | A3 Critical |
| tegwick | A2 Active |
| helix | A2 Active |
| coulomb | A1/A2 Controlled |
| sloppers | A1 Incubating |
| whywhynot | A1 Incubating |
| plenitude | A1 Incubating |

### Option 2 — Adjust before accepting

Change one or more levels after review of current energy, obligations, and
survival priorities.

### Option 3 — Defer

Keep levels as draft annotations until Binky critical path is visible
(TEGWICK-WP-0003).

## Decision

Pending human confirmation.

## Rationale

(To be filled when accepted or rejected.)

## Consequences

Accepted levels flow into area cards, `TASKS.md` prioritization, and agent task
approval boundaries.

## Review

Revisit during monthly landscape review or when Binky stabilization changes
survival pressure.
