Composing Virtue is the white-paper companion to the book of the same name. It specifies the composition principles, the scoring rubrics, and the verification methods by which an enterprise authors a virtue catalogue that is internally coherent, measurably distinct, and operationally governable.

The paper walks through the composition lifecycle: selection (which virtues to include), differentiation (how to keep them measurably distinct), instrumentation (how to score each one), and verification (how to confirm the catalogue is measuring virtue, not performing it). Each stage is paired with its instruments and its failure modes.

For the enterprise ready to compose rather than inherit its virtue catalogue, this paper is the working specification.
