Ownership¶
Ownership means one person is accountable for the state of a surface. It does not mean they must do all the work.

Decision rights¶
| Decision | Driver | Approver | Consult | Evidence required |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Product priority | Initiative owner | Company lead | Surface owners | Problem evidence, cost, acceptance condition |
| API contract change | API owner | Affected product owner | Security/data reviewers | Contract diff, compatibility plan, tests |

| Production release | Change owner | Surface owner | Operations when material | Green required checks, rollback path |
| Irreversible external commitment | Company lead | Company lead | Affected owners | Written decision record |
Ownership rule¶
Every active initiative must name:
- One accountable owner
- A measurable acceptance condition
- The repository or system of record
- The reviewer or judge who did not generate the work
- An escalation path for ambiguity or irreversible risk
No owner means no commitment
Work may be explored without an owner. It may not be represented as a committed roadmap item until someone accepts accountability.
