Five questions to answer first
Who owns the clone? Who can pause it? What is the post-departure policy? How is disclosure handled? How is productivity surplus shared?
The trust budget
Every twin deployment spends from a finite team-trust budget. Transparency, revocability, and audit logs replenish it. Silent or surprise deployments deplete it fast.
Three deployment patterns that work
Pilot-then-pattern: small cohort, rich documentation, slow expansion. Opt-in by default with an easy off-ramp. Twin-pair: each twin has a named human owner who is publicly accountable for its behavior.
