Orion vault — clean initial history

Knowledge vault (Orion/PARA) migrated from the pre-Orion 484vault on
2026-10-01. Deliberately orphaned: prior history contained a plaintext
password and stays local-only on branch archive/pre-boilerplate-history.
Secrets and live Hermes state are gitignored.

+# Sapien
+
+## Overview
+Member venue + house in an Austin neighborhood (second-highest crime area per
+Mackenze, 5-11). Originally Brian's property; L484 took over via lease.
+Repositioned 2026-05-04 from clubhouse to **event venue** ("worth $500/hr";
+"bleeding money hand over fist" as a clubhouse). No-storage policy ("a national
+park"). 15 roles chartered via Halfocracy (4-27).
+
+## Economics
+- Membership tiers: $350/mo (Sapien only) / $550/mo (all locations); $350
+  allocation: $100 co-working, $25 coffee, $50 IT/front store, 10-15 Upgrade
+  Labs sessions (numbers conflicted across meetings — confirm), 20%-markup
+  hardware, members' market.
+- Event pricing evolved: $200+/hr private (4-27) → $400/hr baseline + 4hr min +
+  2h setup/teardown, members 50% off, non-member private $1,000/hr, public
+  $15/head (5-4).
+- Revenue lines: events, memberships, bootcamps, enterprise services, hardware,
+  vending, meat, milk & grocery.

+- 5-29: landlord defaulted; 7-day ultimatum; **lease saved** — Trust member
+  provided money, Zack (Reimagine Ranch) signed; LOI pending insurance.
+- 6-15: public events blocked under Brian's commercial insurance → **events
+  private/PMA-only until L484 buys its own commercial insurance** (owner TBD).

+  Blaze/Daniel (Prague); Angel/Blaze/Poly negotiate; Shadrach guarantor.

+- Security: gate always locked; door code changed; $20 wireless doorbell;
