Public book standards

Public edition for contributors and readers. Full editorial decision logs and change ledgers are not published in this repository.

1. Product standards: the five-part business book #

Draw the median pattern from classics such as Crossing the Chasm, The Innovator's Dilemma, Good to Great, The Lean Startup, Zero to One, and Blue Ocean Strategy:

1. One counter-intuitive core claim — one sentence, falsifiable.
2. One reusable master framework — something readers can sketch on a whiteboard. Regenic uses the dual-capability model (judgment standards + shared context).
3. Three to five named concepts — at most five tier-one concepts; Rewrite the DNA / Regenic is the primary outward concept. See outline.md for the full map.
4. Cases that stress-test the claim — winners and losers; at least one external comparison per chapter or an explicit missing side.
5. An executable playbook — something a leader can run on Monday morning. Regenic uses the 90-day manual in Chapter 13.

Primary reader: the accountable leader (founder, CEO, or business-unit head).

Carrier relationship: the book is a publication freeze; Regenic.ai is the living edition; bioby.ai is the first internal experiment field, not the methodology homepage.

Service boundary: Regenic helps identify the limiting resource, encode standards, freeze acceptance criteria, and run the first validation cycle. It does not replace the leader's judgment, ghostwrite detached standards, or outsource the transformation.

2. Public naming standard #

• Primary title: Rewrite the DNA / Regenic
• Subtitle: How to Build an AI-Native Organization
• The Last Scarcity remains a tier-one concept and potential sequel title, not the primary book title.

Title scoring and market tests are maintained outside the public repository.

3. Chapter acceptance criteria #

Every finished chapter must satisfy all of the following:

1. The claim can be restated in one sentence and follows from the book's core claim.
2. The chapter includes a whiteboard-ready framework.
3. At least one external winner/loser comparison with citable data; report medians separately for each side.
4. At least three quotable candidate lines.
5. A "what to do Monday morning" action list at the end.

4. Writing workflow (10/10/80) #

• 10% standards: this file + outline.md.
• 10% evidence: public research index + private case library (internal cases cannot be the only evidence).
• 80% optimization: one-page brief → logic pass → chapter expansion.

Chapter state machine: one-pager → drafting → complete → frozen.

5. Public success criteria #

Long term: do the core concepts become organizational language; how many teams finish a first cycle with the standards; does Regenic.ai keep publishing testable success, failure, and boundary cases.
