Decisions (Alexander, 26 Oct 2026): a second company, not the plant
company, holds the catalogue; it owns and licenses titles; language
models are self-hosted on premises.
catalogue-intelligence.md reworked: the catalogue company is a customer
of the plant at arm's length (orders through intake and portal, the
plant's price list, standby pressing offered to every customer, no
moved dates, no data either way, metal in the archive on customer
terms; Revenue Code section 71 bis, 200M THB disclosure threshold per
the OECD profile), its own ERPNext site, the run-size rule on the
plant's price instead of its direct cost, its own advisor instance on
hardware it controls, phasing, cost borne by it, risks, open decisions
(shareholders and Poy Records, working capital, standby terms, where its
systems run).
Mirrors: README (planning bullet, project status), roadmap item 28,
digital-factory (tool rule, language-model row in the open-source
table), artist-platform (standby pressing proposal, pre-orders),
production-timeline, revenue-model, plant-assistant (self-hosted on
premises; catalogue data removed; advisor as a separate instance).
New docs/plant-assistant.md (decision, Alexander, 26 Oct 2026): an
assistant for the whole plant, asked in Thai or English at kiosks, desks
and phones, answering from the knowledge base (SOPs as ERPNext Quality
Procedures, vendor manuals on the Assets, recipes and limits, this
repository, lessons learned) and from ERPNext and the machine-data store,
with sources on every answer. Roles and questions, what it does
(explain, trace, summarise, alert context, plan vs actual, drafts) and
never does (machines, submitting, safety improvisation, seeing more than
the asker, rating operators, needing the internet). Built on Typhoon 2.5
(open weights, Apache-2.0, CPU trial first), Typhoon ASR for optional
voice, pgvector retrieval, MCP tools in cnx-factory through the one
integration layer and the PostgreSQL replica; vinyl-ai GPU server only if
needed (~250k to 300k THB, RTX 5090 Thai retail Oct 2026). Test set per
role, phasing, cost, risks, open decisions.
Mirrors: digital-factory systems and machines tables, rough cost note;
catalogue advisor becomes a role of the assistant; worker-safety
training; roadmap item 18; README bullet and layout.
