You're at step 1 of 5:
- ⬜ Onboarding — voice + 4-pillar pools + cadence (15 min) ← YOU ARE HERE
- ⬜ Mine ≥5 voice fingerprints from your existing writing
- ⬜ Capture ≥3 stories for the Proof reservoir
- ⬜ Generate first week's posts (1 per pillar in rotation)
- ⬜ Iterate weekly — auto-critique → ship → score
Step 1 takes ~15 minutes. Ready? (y/n)
