Intelligence/Fiduciary Protocol
PROTOCOL V3 | SYSTEM OPERATIONAL

Assess
Judgment, Not Syntax.

The industry standard for auditing Technical & Capital Judgment in the age of AI. Select a track to initialize the Universal Calibration Gauntlet.

Engineering

For Senior+ Engineers & Architects.

Evaluates ability to review AI-generated code, assess scale, and balance Capital Efficiency vs. Maintenance Liability. Can they prevent technical insolvency?

AUDITSCALECOST

Product Management

For PMs, Group PMs, and Directors.

Assess ability to leverage AI-Assisted Engineering. Focus on Unit Economics and Strategic Governance, not rote memorization. Can they drive value with new tools?

System Doctrine

The Signal Has Collapsed.

AI generates syntax for free. LeetCode measures memorization. Traditional interviews are optimizing for a commodity.

We must stop testing for Construction (writing code/product specs) and start testing for Verification (auditing outcomes).

Engineering is now about reviewing AI-generated code for scale and solvency. Product Management is no longer about rote product sense, but leveraging AI-assisted engineering to drive value. The Fiduciary Protocol™ measures the only three signals that remain scarce: Skepticism, System Thinking, and Capital Stewardship.

The 3-Phase Protocol

Every candidate runs the same simulation

01
Orientation
Identify the primary constraint before touching code.
02
The Audit
Verify AI logic for "Memory Bombs" and hidden debt.
03
The Defense
Prioritize one fix and explicitly defer the rest.
