PROOF 02 · PASSPORT
Design the test before recruiting the crowd.
A 90-day, ten-role and 100-journey specification for learning whether Passport can improve visitor flow and local value without becoming a discount scheme or surveillance product.
THE TESTABLE HYPOTHESIS
Connection can create more value than discounting.
If a small, verified cross-peninsula network gives visitors useful sequencing, timely context and low-car choices, more journeys should reach multiple local clusters while remaining easier to operate and more respectful of privacy.
TEN COMPLEMENTARY ROLES
A network, not ten copies of the same place.
These are role slots, not selected partners. Assignment remains zero until the ownership and privacy gates are complete.

CURRENT DECISION
Prepare. Do not recruit yet.
The specification and public governance pack are complete. The remaining legitimate move is appointing an accountable owner who accepts and dry-runs that infrastructure—not collecting names.
