PointSav Documentation

Where the monorepo holds the code, this wiki holds the reasoning: architecture, services, security, and the governance commitments that bind future development.

editorial(substrate): fix retail-co-location-tier-methodology gate omissions (Track-B) — confirmed against app-orchestration-gis/SCORING-METHODOLOGY.md: 2 real gates were missing entirely (Tier 1's secondary-catchment-population check, Tier 2's consumer-spend-rank requirement), understating the real gate set; kept the existing appropriate abstraction level (no internal field names, no exact IoU radius/thresholds) rather than adding implementation specifics beyond what a public explainer needs, per public-repo-safety-review.md; register-clean EN+ES

## What a cluster must clear

Every tier requires all of its gates to pass — composition, catchment rank, civic
support, and non-overlap:
Every tier requires all of its gates to pass — composition, catchment rank, spend rank
where it applies, civic support, and non-overlap:

- **Composition** — which categories of capital-intensive anchor must co-occur. Regional
  requires a warehouse-club or lifestyle anchor alongside a hypermarket; District requires
  a hypermarket alongside hardware or warehouse; Local requires a hardware or warehouse
  anchor on its own.
- **Catchment population rank** — each cluster's primary catchment population is ranked
- **Catchment population rank** — each cluster's catchment population is ranked
  against every other cluster *within its own country*, not globally, so a Tier 1 cluster
  in a smaller market is compared to its own market's distribution rather than penalized
  for that market's overall size. Regional requires the top 10% nationally; District the
  top 25%; Local the top 50%.
  for that market's overall size. Regional requires the top 10% nationally on primary
  catchment (plus a secondary-catchment population check); District the top 25% on primary
  catchment; Local the top 50%.
- **Spend rank** — District additionally requires the cluster to rank in the top quartile
  nationally on at least one of several consumer-spend measures, not population alone.
- **Civic support** — a minimum count of regionally or locally classified hospitals within
  the cluster's outer catchment ring. Regional requires a regional-grade hospital; District
  accepts a regional or district hospital; Local accepts any classified hospital.
