03 — Directus / Manual Action Guide for L2 + L4

Package: one-roof-human-ratification-handoff-2026-06-02 Step-by-step manual actions for humans in Directus. Written for non-technical execution. No Agent performs any step here. Field names below are the live PostgreSQL column names (verified read-only this run); in the Directus UI they appear as the corresponding fields of each collection.

---

A. STEP 1 (L2 author) — File the request in approval_requests

Collection: approval_requests → Create Item. Set these fields exactly:

Field (column)	Value to enter
code	APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1
request_type	constitutional_ratification
title	(paste the title from doc 02 §1)
action	modify ← NOT add (see warning below)
priority	high
status	pending
proposed_action	(paste the JSON from doc 02 §1)
proposed_action_code	leave blank / empty
evidence	(paste from doc 02 §1)
source	governance/bootstrap
review_note	(paste from doc 02 §1)

Then Save.

⚠ action MUST be modify. If you set add, the system auto-approves it (fn_auto_approve_add, the L0 path) and the council never rules — wrong for a constitutional act. ⚠ proposed_action_code MUST be blank. No live action-type carries build-authorization meaning; do not pick one from the list.

Done when: one approval_requests row exists with code='APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1', action='modify', status='pending'.

B. STEP 2 (L2 council) — Record the votes in apr_approvals

For each voter, in collection apr_approvals → Create Item, linked to the request above:

Field (column)	Value
apr_id	the id of the APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1 request
approver	the voter's identity (the president-human voter's name must contain "president")
approver_type	the voter's type (human for the president-human; ai_council for the AI voters)
decision	the system's approve token
rationale	(paste the council decision record from doc 02 §2)

You need, in total, on this request:

• 1 vote: president-human, decision = approve (name matches %president%, human)
• 1 vote: ai_council member #1, decision = approve
• 1 vote: ai_council member #2, decision = approve
• 0 votes: any reject (a single reject blocks the whole act)
• the proposer (the person who did Step A) casts no vote

The trigger fn_apr_quorum_check fires as votes are saved and, when the rule is met, moves approval_requests.status to approved. Do NOT open the request and change status yourself. approval_requests has no quorum_passed field — "approved" status is the signal that quorum passed.

Done when: the three approve votes exist, no reject exists, and the request's status has flipped to approved on its own.

C. STEP 3 (L4 sovereign) — President e-signs in os_proposal_approvals

The President performs this personally. Collection: os_proposal_approvals → Create Item:

Field (column)	Value
signature_text	President's typed full legal name
signature_image	President's signature image (optional)
first_name / last_name	President's name
email	President's email
esignature_agreement	true
proposal	reference/link to APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1
metadata	(paste the sovereign adoption statement from doc 02 §3)
ip_address / date	captured automatically — leave to the system

Then Save.

Only the President may do this. No delegate, assistant, or Agent may enter a signature on the President's behalf — that would be e-sign forgery.

Done when: one os_proposal_approvals row exists with esignature_agreement=true, the President's genuine signature fields, and proposal referencing APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1.

---

D. STEP 4 — Do NOT do anything else manually

After A–C, stop. Do not manually create any table, view, function, apr_action_types row, governance_build_authorization row, or axis object. Those are built later, by the build agent, under per-step authorization — not by hand here. Manual creation would corrupt the gate.

Next: run the verification in doc 04, then release the gated build per doc 05.

E. Quick reference — what each step writes

Step	Collection	Rows added	Who
A	approval_requests	+1 (APR-BOOT-AUTHMODEL-1)	human governance owner
B	apr_approvals	+3 (1 president-human + 2 ai_council)	council
C	os_proposal_approvals	+1 (sovereign e-sign)	President
—	everything else	0	nobody (build comes later, gated)
