N9ALV is taking Mike out of law entirely

N9ALV starts with a 900-line planning document arguing that Mike's foundations - project workspaces, the document pipeline, project-scoped chat, workflows, and the tabular review system - aren't really legal at all. They're generic, and the legal behaviour is just a configuration sitting on top. The first prototype puts that thesis to work: out go the contract-drafting and compliance-checklist workflows, in come investment memos, earnings-call summaries, 10-K risk extraction, and structured investment theses with separate bull, base, and bear cases.

This isn't a bolt-on. N9ALV deliberately deleted the legal-specific pieces rather than layering on top, and added new pages for portfolios, theses, and a decision journal. It's an early pass - access-control hardening is clearly still to come - but the direction is unambiguous. One detail worth stealing regardless of field: the assistant is told to keep facts, assumptions, and estimates separate, and is forbidden from inventing prices, holdings, or filings.
