- Split competitive-analysis-2026-05.org → TOC + 9 competitor files in ideas/competitors/. Dropped date from filename. All competitor UUIDs generated, TOC keeps original UUID for backlink continuity. - Deleted passepartout-economics.org archive (replaced by 27-node KB). - Inlined 5 'See also' blocks into natural prose (compliance-index, first-mover-window, revenue-table, orders-of-magnitude-time, native-org-knowledge-base). - Linked 7 orphan compliance pages back to compliance index + finished truncated sentences. - Linked all 14 Agora requirement docs from topic-relevant pages (identity→lisp-machine-security, infrastructure→compute-marketplace, social-space→growth-strategy, exchange→agora-contracts, etc.). - Linked ai-industry-impact from investment-thesis, sufficiency-flip, verification-appliance, effects-growth-flywheel (up from 1 to 10+ pages). - Fixed CREATED timestamps to use git commit dates instead of today. - Made all links absolute from root (no port inheritance). - Removed stale agora/docs/ duplicate content.

IFC Performance Standards
projects in 100+ countries. Also adopted by many multilateral development banks (MDBs) as their standard.
Why it matters: ESF compliance is condition precedent to World Bank disbursement. Delays in compliance verification delay project funding. The gate stack's deterministic rule system can encode ESF standards as execution gates — "no disbursement unless ESS5 resettlement plan is verified complete." First-mover advantage: World Bank compliance is entirely document-based (reports, audits, site visits). A verified gate system is unprecedented.
IFC Performance Standards (PS)

Eight standards: PS1 (risk management), PS2 (labor), PS3 (resource efficiency), PS4 (community health), PS5 (land/resettlement), PS6 (biodiversity), PS7 (indigenous peoples), PS8 (cultural heritage).
