+| `TENANT ID: cbsgroup` | Canonical tenant slug |
+| `PUBLIC HOST: cbsgroup.sankofa.nexus` | Public tenant hostname |
+| `PAYMENT PATH: /tingg` | Subscription entry point |

+## Operating model
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart LR
+ NB["NovaBank"]
+ CBS["CBS Group
API receiver / middleware"]
+ TG["Tingg"]
+ ST["Settlement / treasury lane"]
+
+ NB -->|payment intent| CBS
+ CBS -->|API request| TG
+ TG -. webhook callback .-> CBS
+ CBS -->|status propagation| NB
+ CBS -->|reconciliation| ST
+```
+
+### Roles
+
+- `NovaBank` initiates payment intent.
+- `CBS Group` receives and brokers the payment API.
+- `Tingg` processes the payment and returns webhook callbacks.
+- Settlement and treasury remain outside the synchronous checkout path.
+
+## Workspace portfolio
+
+| Repository | Responsibility | Reading priority |
+|---|---|---|
+| `cbsgroup-brand-assets` | Brand system, SVG sources, and rendered exports | First for identity and presentation |
+| `cbsgroup-e2e` | Tingg smoke, build, lint, and troubleshooting | First for proof and validation |
+| `cbsgroup-ops` | Architecture, routing, deployment, incidents | First for operational control |
+

+## Validation posture
+
+- Live subscription surface: `https://cbsgroup.sankofa.nexus/tingg`
+- Tingg test suite: required
+- Tingg build: required
+- Tingg lint: required
+- Optional Prisma workflow: available for local setup
