Role Replacement Explorer

Interactive model

Role Replacement Explorer

Open a role to see responsibilities, current replacement, expected burden reduction, and capability dependencies. This is an explanatory model, not a product data source.

These are honest maturity states, not measured percentages.

The only receipt-grounded role baseline today is the SDLC Orchestrator at under 25% (see CURRENT_STATE). A role shows a percentage only when receipts support it; every other role reports a qualitative maturity state, not a number.

SDLC Orchestrator - < 25% current replacement, target 90%+

TrendFlat until runtime and consumption move.

Expected Burden ReductionHigh - Zach remains the mechanism for discovery through learning.

ResponsibilitiesDiscover Ready work, clarify, dispatch, monitor, verify, request review, prepare merge decisions, update receipts.

CapabilitiesIssue Discovery, Issue Clarification, Work Order Ingestion, Hermes Dispatch, PR Review, Merge Readiness, Receipt Generation.

EvidenceCURRENT_STATE, Work Orders D1-D3, Reference Realization receipts, Merge Readiness build evidence.

Remaining GapEnd-to-end continuation without Zach.

Context Carrier - Substrate built · not consumed, target Most routine context-carrying

TrendPrerequisite substrate built, not yet consumed.

Expected Burden ReductionMedium-high - Zach still repeats architecture, decisions, and prior context.

ResponsibilitiesRetrieve relevant decisions, assemble issue/PR context, preserve corrections, surface contradictions.

EvidenceGBrain outbox and manual canon.

Remaining GapKnowledge documents do not yet enter reasoning.

Dispatcher - Dry-run only, target The bulk of routine dispatch

TrendMoving as Work Order ingestion and Hermes wiring land.

Expected Burden ReductionHigh - humans still wake and route the loop.

ResponsibilitiesConvert intent to work, select executor, carry authority, track state, follow up on stalls.

CapabilitiesWork Orders, Capability Requests, ExecutionRequests, Hermes Runner, Portfolio Health.

EvidenceD0 bridge, D1 endpoint, scheduler records.

Remaining GapD2-D4 and event substrate.

Status Checker - Prerequisite built · not wired, target Nearly all routine status checks

TrendImproves only when receipts and health are product-native.

Expected Burden ReductionMedium - humans still poll GitHub, CI, PRs, and agent outcomes.

ResponsibilitiesObserve state, summarize deltas, detect blockers, route health signals.

CapabilitiesOperational Health, Capability Portfolio, Executive Updates, Receipt Explorer.

EvidenceBurden Intelligence scheduler and dry-run projections.

Remaining GapLive health and delta surfaces.
