Blog content creation, drafting, and editorial workflow management.

Blog publishing pipeline, scheduling, and distribution.

Day-to-day operations and maintenance for the Blogs service.

Text-to-speech for voice notes and narration — Gemini is the preferred engine, OpenAI's mini TTS the fallback. Cross-cutting: the activity decides the track, so whoever speaks bills here.

Writing each Carolopedia page's write-up from that page's public projection alone (governance #104), approved by the publication gate before it is stored and re-checked when it is served. Its own budget by Ninad's ruling (cost-center #108).

The core work of the blogs service.

Every picture and every video the estate generates: Scriber's scenes and heroes, Archon's portraits, the diagram reviewer. Cross-cutting — a picture is a picture whoever asked for it, so it is governed as the activity rather than scattered across the tracks of whoever happened to want one. This is the estate's largest real spend, and until now almost none of it was recorded against a limit.

Every spoken word the estate produces: Carol's voice notes and voice calls, Scriber's narration, any agent that speaks. Cross-cutting like Chat and Consciousness — speech is speech whoever is speaking, so the charge lands here rather than on the speaker's own track. Gated before spend; a refusal always degrades to text, so nobody is ever left without an answer.
