Build the voice before the surfaces that speak with it

The Felty voice system (20+ message templates, character config, composer) was built before the admin UI and the session lifecycle core loop. The reason: every surface in the app — invite shares, settlement confirmations, no-show notices, loan offers — uses Felty's voice. Building the personality first gives every downstream feature a coherent character to speak with, instead of bolting tone onto each view as it's written.
