General
Company-level knowledge that doesn't fit in product rules, marketing, ops, or code. Origin, structure, people, capital, footprint, strategy. Reusable context for onboarding agents and humans.
This subtree is agent-first — dense, factual, link-heavy. New humans can read top-to-bottom but the priority is greppability for AI context loading.
Authority
Reference. Coequal subtree to business/, marketing/, ops/. When a fact here also lives in code or a more specific doc, the more-specific doc wins. When a fact here is the source (e.g. legal entity structure, team roster), this is canonical.

Conventions
- Frontmatter: every page has
title,last_updated,owner,applies_to,status,sources. - No code refs. Like
business/, this subtree never references file paths, function names, or DB tables. Code/architecture knowledge belongs inengineering/. - No operational how-tos. Procedures belong in
ops/. This is context, not instructions. - Cross-link, don't duplicate. When this overlaps with
marketing/icp.mdorbusiness/<domain>/ordecisions/<n>-*.md, link out. - Numbers belong here when they're company-level, current-state, and not derivable from code. Portfolio metrics, headcount, vendor stack, etc.
