+Every build also has an **asset allowance** — a slice of the account's credits,
+sized from the live balance the first time a paid command runs and held still
+after that. `npx genex budget` prints it live: balance, spendable, the
+allowance, spent this build, remaining, and the price of every kind. Run it
+before the first batch and after each preview.
+
+The allowance is the build's asset money and it is MEANT to go on what the
+brief names — leaving it unspent while you code-build the named things is as
+wrong as draining it on props. Plan the asset table against it: the named
+things first, then what makes the scene read, on the cheapest lane that reaches
+the bar. If the plan needs more than it holds, ask the player with the number
+BEFORE trimming; only their word raises it (`npx genex budget --assets
+<credits> --user-approved`). If no answer comes and the build must proceed,
+generate the named things first, code-build the rest, and say so in the
+summary. A refusal past the allowance means the build has reached its
+allowance, not that the account is empty; failed generations are refunded and
+do not count.
