The firm's work is a graph of flows, not a set of jobs. The orchestrator treats intelligence as a rented commodity and owns the junctions, the stations where flows meet and decisions are made, because those encode the firm's own rules, context and corrections.
The book also faces the problem this era has not solved: the apprenticeship staircase on which judgment was built is disappearing. It sets out five working moves, the property lines, an operating cadence and six gauges.
Jobs are bundles assembled for a labor market; work is a graph of flows, each with inputs, checkpoints and outputs.
The decision is consequential, not fully specifiable, made by someone with standing to commit the firm, and recorded.
Apprenticeship attaches to junctions, friction is reintroduced as a labeled training cost, and calibration is measured.
