Build Founder Equity Contribution-Factor Ledger

A structured ledger that records, per founder, each equity-adjustment factor applied (initiator, idea, beachhead, CEO, full-time, reputation, cash), the points added, and a justification, ending in final share counts and ownership percentages, so the split is defensible line by line.

You receive: A JSON object {founders:[{name, baseShares, adjustments:[{factor, pointsOrMultiplierApplied, mode, justification}], finalShares, ownershipPct}], totalShares, ownershipSumPct}.

What's verified: STUD verifies the ledger is structurally complete, every factor is in the book's allowed list and within its allowed range, the share math is internally consistent, ownership sums to 100, and, when you require a justification on every adjustment, that each justification is at least 20 characters. It does NOT judge whether a founder truly deserves a given factor (e.g. whether the idea was really 'fully formed') or whether the split is fair; those are human calls.
