For durable outcomes, outcome.target is the success target,
outcome.deadline_at is a future deadline, and outcome.metric_id must name an
active Metric in the execution workspace. The Metric is an observed signal: a new
sample does not itself declare success. Tycoon records its baseline on the
canonical Task. The accountable Lead must keep a bounded review before the
deadline and uses the existing supporting Routine owner when recurring
observation is needed.
working_guidance is bounded Task-local advice about method and output.
playbook_id refers to an existing Company Skill in the execution workspace; Tycoon
pins its current immutable revision at create time, so later edits do not change
this Task. Neither field can grant money, connector, tool, data, safety, or
lifecycle authority, and neither is a public Skill-management API.
On a read, outcome is null until a communication checkpoint exists. It is a
safe projection rather than a trace: it contains no prompt bytes, raw evidence,
connector diagnostics, runtime identity, or hidden child state. playbook is
null when no Company Skill was pinned; it exposes only the selected Skill id,
immutable revision id, and name, never the Playbook body.
Accepting an outcome.target records what the work is aiming at. It does not
promise the business result, and a Metric sample moving is evidence, not a
verdict.
