# Source: 15-START-HERE-ASYNC-STANDALONE (live demo page)

## What this source is

The **navigation hub** of the live SuiteCentral 2.0 demo at `demo.kstratmdconsulting.com`. It is the entry point for an async-first review experience — the page a reviewer is sent to when there is no live presenter to walk them through the package.

It is structurally a **menu page**, not a content page. It defines three guided review paths (A/B/C), each engineered to deliver the reviewer to the same artifact (the Pilot Decision Memo). It also contains a 60-second "production-readiness snapshot" (the **current** test/coverage/scale numbers, not the slide-vintage ones) and an email template for distributing the package by email.

This is the **first live-site source** in the wiki — all prior sources were `.md` files inside the notebook. It was added to the notebook on 2026-04-07 via `notebook_add_url`.

## Key claims

1. **Async-first review is a supported mode.** The package is engineered to be reviewed without a live presenter. → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
2. **Target outcome is "approve / defer / deep-dive."** Each path is designed to end in a concrete, named pilot decision (not vibes). → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
3. **Three guided paths exist: A (Executive, 11-12 min), B (Leadership, 25 min, recommended), and C (Deep Proof, 50 min).** All three end at the Pilot Decision Memo. → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
4. **Path A is 5 steps**: Executive Outcomes → Executive Reel (Narrated) → Context Sidecar Highlight (Narrated) → Claim-to-Proof Matrix → Pilot Decision Memo. → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
5. **Path B is 8 steps**: Demo Hub (Watch/Click/Read) → Storyboard Clips (8 min) → Module Library 16 modules (3 min) → Claim-to-Proof Matrix (4 min) → Objections-and-Answers (2 min) → CFO/CTO/COO role page (4 min, **parallel choice**) → 30/60/90 Pilot Plan (2 min) → Pilot Decision Memo (2 min). → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]] and [[pages/role-briefs/cfo]] / [[pages/role-briefs/cto]] / [[pages/role-briefs/coo]]
6. **Path C is 5 steps**: Full Watch playlist (20 min) → Module Library 16 modules (5 min) → Technical Proof (10 min) → Compliance Dashboard + Oracle comparison (10 min) → Pilot Decision Memo (5 min). → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
7. **The Demo Hub is a three-track structure: Watch (narrated proof) / Click (interactive walkthroughs) / Read (executive summaries).** Lives at `/squire-v2-media-demo/index.html`. → [[pages/entities/demo-site]]
8. **Role briefs are step 6 of Path B, presented as a parallel choice by role.** Reviewers pick the brief that matches their job (CFO, CTO, or COO). → [[pages/role-briefs/cfo]], [[pages/role-briefs/cto]], [[pages/role-briefs/coo]] (correction to existing wording on those pages)
9. **The Pilot Decision Memo at `/Squire-Executive-Package-v2/16-PILOT-DECISION-MEMO-STANDALONE.html` is the artifact every path delivers to.** Not yet ingested. → [[pages/entities/demo-site]] and flagged as a high-priority next ingest
10. **Each path has a NotebookLM Companion** for external Q&A — the same notebook this wiki ingests from (`ca3bd54b-...`). → [[pages/entities/demo-site]]
11. **The async email template** defines a canonical 6-URL distribution flow: Start Here → Demo Hub → Watch playlist → Module Library → Claim-to-Proof Matrix → Pilot Decision Memo. → [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]]
12. **Suite pass rate (CURRENT vintage)**: 100% (391/391 suites). → [[pages/concepts/production-proof]]
13. **Test counts (CURRENT vintage)**: 9,364/9,394 (30 skipped). → [[pages/concepts/production-proof]]
14. **Coverage (CURRENT vintage)**: 64.48% statements. → [[pages/concepts/production-proof]]
15. **Repository scale (CURRENT vintage)**: 2,282 tracked files / ~854K text LOC snapshot. → [[pages/concepts/production-proof]]
16. **Decision Path at `/19-DECISION-PATH-STANDALONE.html` is a role-based routing to a decision artifact.** Likely the answer to the still-open "who leads the pilot approval" question. Not yet ingested. → [[pages/entities/demo-site]]
17. **Live Demo Setup at `/18-LIVE-DEMO-SETUP-STANDALONE.html` is the local server-backed version** for reviewers who want deeper technical access (alternative to a GitHub repo invite). → [[pages/entities/demo-site]]
18. **Engineering Scale & Quality at `/23-ENGINEERING-SCALE-QUALITY-STANDALONE.html` is the full benchmark narrative** behind the 60-second quality snapshot. Not yet ingested. → [[pages/entities/demo-site]]

## Pages updated by this ingest

**Created** (2 new pages):
- [[pages/concepts/three-review-paths]] — captures the A/B/C path structure as the canonical review experience
- [[pages/entities/demo-site]] — entity page for the live `demo.kstratmdconsulting.com` artifact

**Updated** (4 existing pages):
- [[pages/concepts/production-proof]] — added the **current-vintage** numbers (9,364/9,394, 100% 391/391 suites, 64.48% coverage, 2,282 files / ~854K LOC) as a third formally-ingested source. These match the Preston-Test repo `README.md` numbers that were previously noted as "implicit, not yet formally ingested."
- [[pages/role-briefs/cfo]] — corrected "designed to be read together" to "parallel choice in Path B"
- [[pages/role-briefs/cto]] — same correction
- [[pages/role-briefs/coo]] — same correction

## Notable quotes

> "If no live presenter is available, use one of these guided paths. Each path is designed to end in a concrete pilot decision."

> "Target outcome: capture a clear approve, defer, or deep-dive next step."

> "Start with Watch for narrated proof, Click for interactive walkthroughs, and Read for executive summaries." — Demo Hub guidance.

(The full content of the page is quite short — the cached raw file is at `raw/notebooklm/15-start-here-async-standalone.md` in the vault.)

## Cross-references / contradictions found

- **Mixed vintages within the executive package** (NOT a contradiction, but important): this Start Here page cites the **current** Preston-Test numbers (9,364/9,394 with 30 skipped, 100% 409/409, 64.48% coverage). The slide script [[sources/01-executive-summary]] and the CTO role brief [[sources/11-role-brief-cto]] both cite the **slide-vintage** numbers (9,038/9,061 with 23 skipped). Conclusion: Start Here has been refreshed since the slide-vintage assets were created; the role briefs and exec summary script have not. The package is internally inconsistent on this point. The math: +197 passing tests, +7 skipped tests, +204 total tests added between vintages. The skipped-test ratio is essentially flat (0.25% slide-vintage vs 0.32% current).
- **The role briefs are NOT meant to be read as a triptych** — confirmed by this source. They are a *parallel choice* in step 6 of Path B (the leadership path). Each reviewer reads the one that matches their role. This requires a wording fix on [[pages/role-briefs/cfo]], [[pages/role-briefs/cto]], and [[pages/role-briefs/coo]] — all three currently say "designed to be read together," which was my inference from the role-brief batch ingest (it was a reasonable inference at the time, and the synthesis page is still useful for the case where one reviewer must reconcile all three).
- **NotebookLM scrape is structurally lossy on this page**: many of the inline link URLs in the cached raw text resolve incorrectly (e.g., every link in Path A points to `23-ENGINEERING-SCALE-QUALITY-STANDALONE.html`). User verified on 2026-04-07 that the live site links are correct ("Executive Outcomes" actually links to `/Squire-Executive-Package-v2/00-EXECUTIVE-OUTCOMES-STANDALONE`). Conclusion: do NOT trust inline URLs from this scrape. The cached raw text in `raw/notebooklm/15-start-here-async-standalone.md` should not be used as a source of truth for which path step links to which page — only for the *list* of step names and durations.
- **Hint at unread sources** revealed by this page (high-priority candidates for next ingest):
  - `/16-PILOT-DECISION-MEMO-STANDALONE.html` — THE decision artifact every path leads to
  - `/19-DECISION-PATH-STANDALONE.html` — role-based routing, likely answers "who leads approval"
  - `/00-EXECUTIVE-OUTCOMES-STANDALONE.html` — Path A step 1 (verified URL from user spot-check)
  - `/23-ENGINEERING-SCALE-QUALITY-STANDALONE.html` — full quality benchmark narrative
  - `/squire-v2-media-demo/index.html` — the Demo Hub itself (Watch/Click/Read entry)
  - `/squire-v2-media-demo/oracle-comparison.html` — the Oracle comparison artifact for Path C

## Notes

- This is the first **live-site source** in the wiki. The provenance line `source_url:` in the frontmatter records the live URL it came from, in case the live site is updated and we need to re-ingest.
- The ~6 KB content size is misleading — most of the substance is *structural* (path definitions and navigation), not narrative. The 60-second quality snapshot is the only substantive content block.
- The "Optional deeper technical access" footer mentions GitHub repo invites and the Live Demo Setup page. This is an indirect signal that the demo site has a private/gated path for serious reviewers, distinct from the public hosted demo.
- The page mentions "Demo Hub details" and "More ▼" — implying there's an expandable/accordion section in the live page that NotebookLM may or may not have captured. The current content includes the Demo Hub section, so it appears to have been captured.
