Avi a66996ac10 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.
- $15-20k facilities work needed (furniture, water heater, 15-item buy/do list).
## Lease history (critical)
- 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).
- 7-10 → 8-10: lease still unsigned, old lease missing; 30-day rent hold;
Blaze/Daniel (Prague); Angel/Blaze/Poly negotiate; Shadrach guarantor.
- 8-10: gated on Ben (missed Friday message); 2 free months runway.
- 8-14: FF lease signed (separate entity, GeoGRO); weekly rhythm Mon-Wed lab /
Thurs-Sat Solarpunk / Sunday church.
## Operations
- Staff: Jay + Tom employed, living in the house (5-11, 3-month trial); Asif
housing; Zaza desk room; staff accountability = on-site Telegram + weekly
all-hands, one task/person/week (5-25).
- Security: gate always locked; door code changed; $20 wireless doorbell;
enforcement ladder (sacred pause → yellow/red card → ban); NDA +
non-disparagement signed by members.
- Schedule (biweekly themed): Mon men's, Tue tech, Wed women's wellness,
Truth Thursdays, Freedom Fridays, Sat Bitcoin walk 2-6pm, Sun Lord's day.
- Open/closing duties: see [[Sapien Opening and Closing Checklist]].
- Cold plunges: declared dead 5-18 (Chinese parts unavailable; $8-10k to
replace) — reversal of 4-27 "working plunges" baseline.
## People
Mackenze (facilities/event approval), Poly (membership), Jen (finance/safety/
space planning/outdoor/SOP), Jay (community/logistics), Asif (retail/store),
Allen (tech/network), Jenelle (marketing/healers), Kitchen = UNASSIGNED (as of
5-4). Justin (ATX Tribe, outside deals). Brian = grandfathered landlord.
## Open threads
- Kitchen & Food Operations role unassigned; kitchen moving next door
(see [[Kitchen 484]]).
- Inventory list + ordering owner missing (see Troubleshooting Index).
- Commercial insurance owner TBD (gates public events).
- Membership cards: NFC prototype mission (October, Pat/Poly, 7-27).
