Action
Authorise one action, write its contract and verify what actually changed.
See how Day 1 moves from authorising one action to writing a clear contract and verifying what actually changed.
Open your AI Work Delegation Blueprint. AI/GPT is not required just to use this day map; the linked sessions use paper, partner and supplied-record simulations.
Review Sessions 1–3, then open each full session to practise the action boundary, contract and completion evidence.
An action boundary, one-action contract, verified state and recovery decision ready for the next day.
The question for this day
What useful work may AI actually do? By the end of the arc, you will have An action receipt and recovery decision. Keep using the same task or fictional case so each session improves the previous work.
Session 1 · Authorise · 120 minutes
Question: What useful work may AI actually do?
You keep: An action boundary and a named approver.
| Bite | Decision you practise | Evidence you keep |
|---|---|---|
| Separate an answer from an action | What changed outside the conversation? | Target, allowed change and completion evidence |
| Give authority to a specific action | Who approves this version for this recipient? | Action mode, approver and approval scope |
| Keep useful work moving at the boundary | Can the quote progress while the discount waits? | Permitted preparation and human decision |
Open the full session and exercises.
Session 2 · Contract · 120 minutes
Question: What exactly am I handing over?
You keep: A one-action contract.
| Bite | Decision you practise | Evidence you keep |
|---|---|---|
| Name the target and effect | Which record may change, and how? | System, target, permitted change and exclusions |
| Separate deciding from doing | Which steps need judgement or authority? | Decision owner for each step |
| Put approval before execution | What must be true before the action starts? | Contract with preconditions and evidence |
Open the full session and exercises.
Session 3 · Verify · 120 minutes
Question: Did the work actually finish?
You keep: An action receipt and recovery decision.
| Bite | Decision you practise | Evidence you keep |
|---|---|---|
| Read the state behind the claim | Which parts are complete, incomplete or unknown? | Three-state action receipt with supporting records |
| Match the fault to the first check | What would you inspect before fixing it? | Failure, first check and investigation owner |
| Recover without guessing | When is a repeat action justified? | Verified state, unresolved work and next owner |

Show the day’s evidence
Open your AI Work Delegation Blueprint. Ask a partner to use it without your explanation. Mark one unclear field, revise it and preserve the supporting record. Do not substitute confidence for proof.
Tonight · Action-contract clinic
A checked action receipt ready to become a responsibility tomorrow. Swap one contract and the S6 receipt. The reviewer finds a missing target, approval or completion check. Repair one gap and name the repeated follow-through you would like to hand over.
Open the 60-minute studio and its card. Tomorrow starts from this evidence.
