Midas Budget Allocator

Droid shared machinery daily from Midas's crontab: sets each other service track's daily budget from consumption. Registered by β€” found running untasked (P.05.02.08).

πŸ“–About

Midas Budget Allocator is a droid for assessing whether service tracks have sufficient funding.

πŸ“–Usage

Readers would encounter it in the estate’s subscription management work, where it supports checks on whether services remain funded.

πŸ“–Purpose

Ask every day whether each service track is sufficiently funded, and switch off the tracks running on a subscription that has run dry.

πŸ“–Duties

Survey every track that pays for it, reading balances through the Subscriptions app rather than any private copy. Email Ninad and Orion naming the tracks that stopped and why. Report a subscription whose balance cannot be read as unmeasurable.

πŸ“–Constraints

Never treats an unreadable balance as funded, and never switches anything off because of one β€” a check that could not run is not a pass, but it is not grounds for a droid to stop the estate either. Never switches a track back ON: topping a subscription up must not restart spending without a person deciding to. Never switches a track that is already off, so nothing is re-thrown and no email repeats for a state that has not changed.
