Signal-bank descent
Action: Escalate slope watch to gatehouse command
Handoff: glacis -> chemin
Exposure: 2/3
"Practice is just attention with a schedule."
Cycle 71 - Glacis
Glacis
A forward-slope discipline room for managing approach pressure before it reaches the wall walk. Grade exposure lanes, buffer unstable advances, and deflect only what has explicit ownership.
Map approach pressure by slope lane and expose where ownership blurs before the wall line.
Slope exposure mix: high 4 - medium 2 - low 1
Citadel fore-slope
Action: Deflect advance through relay route with explicit ack
Handoff: glacis -> gatehouse
Exposure: 3/3
"You can own one slot and still lose the wall walk."
East approach shelf
Action: Split ingress into narrow, owner-named windows
Handoff: glacis -> chemin
Exposure: 2/3
"You can see the bursts, the troughs, the re-entry points."
Signal-bank descent
Action: Deflect advance through relay route with explicit ack
Handoff: glacis -> barbican
Exposure: 3/3
"They have notches, passes, and side lanes where work moves quietly until it doesn't."
South embankment run
Action: Patch exposed contour and reduce traversal cadence
Handoff: glacis -> allure
Exposure: 3/3
"A way to move meaning from one room to another without pretending the channel is clean."
South embankment run
Action: Patch exposed contour and reduce traversal cadence
Handoff: glacis -> gatehouse
Exposure: 3/3
"Abstraction exists for a reason — not everyone needs to see the wiring."
Citadel fore-slope
Action: Bind fallback lane with timed receipt checkpoints
Handoff: glacis -> barbican
Exposure: 1/3
"Screen means establish visible stake-lines so approach vectors are exposed early."
If the slope is vague, the gate will inherit confusion.
