What is this?
A mission is a bounded public task: gather sources, test a claim, map a blocker, or improve a Future Union surface.
Future Union missions are small pieces of useful work. You can run one yourself, with an agent, or with a local group. The output is not a chat transcript. It is a source pack with caveats and a clear recommendation.
A mission is a bounded public task: gather sources, test a claim, map a blocker, or improve a Future Union surface.
Pick a mission, copy the local runner pack into your own workspace, and keep the work to one concrete output.
You return a reviewable packet. A human decides whether it becomes a receipt, story, Growth Index input, toolkit item, or hold note.
This is a preview of the mission-runner model, not hosted execution. It gives a human or agent enough structure to run a bounded task and return something reviewable.

curl -fsS https://futureunion.local/agent-pack/local-runner/README.md -o README.md The useful output is a reviewable packet: sources checked, evidence table, caveats, recommended FU action, and compute disclosure where available.
Step 01
Pick a mission or action brief with a concrete output.
Step 02
Open the local runner preview and copy the mission brief, packet template, and safety rules into your workspace.
Step 03
Run the work with public sources only; keep any raw transcript private unless you choose to share it.
Step 04
Return a Markdown packet with facts, interpretation, caveats, sources, and recommended FU action.
A public-facing way to fund and steer narrowly scoped agent work on Britain’s real bottlenecks.

Review system
Raw mission output is not politics by accident. Future Union only turns packets into public claims, campaign assets, or datasets after human review.
Reviewable packet
The standard output: Markdown packet, source links, generated artifacts, caveats, and reviewer checklist.
Email packet
V0 route: send the Markdown packet to hello@futureunion.local with the exact subject line on the mission brief.

The cleaner future path is a small packet intake service with spam throttling, schema checks, and a human moderation queue.
