Occasion Operating System

The night, sequenced

What happens, in what order, and who is holding it?

Host shell with three layers: Plan (night route), Architecture (menu stress under the same chrome), and Card (table wording). Receives Menu Builder packets (contract 1.1.0) and keeps dietary categories as planning filters — never allergy guarantees.

Inputs it demands

  • A settled menu — ideally a Menu Builder packet
  • Guests, service style, and room constraints
  • Attention you can hold during service
  • Days available before the night

What it returns

  • Condition-driven host plan
  • Shop → prep → serve route with holding points
  • Dietary categories carried forward as planning filters
  • Food-safety boundary printed on every plan

Hard stops

  • Prep route that cannot fit the days declared
  • Service plan that exceeds host attention
  • Any request to certify a dish as allergen-safe

A hard stop is a refusal, not a warning.

Refuses outright

  • Allergen-safe guarantees
  • Silent cross-app inference
  • Star ratings or social proof
  • Forced accounts for core planning

Handoff contract
