- The draft separates a Declaration, eleven Universal Principles, and a Constitution, then proposes external checks, append-only records, and human interruption.
Field notes
The project organizes its argument as a Declaration, eleven Universal Principles, and a Constitution covering authority and limits. Its proposed enforcement layer relies on separation of control: an external checker evaluates actions, an uneditable record preserves decisions, and a person retains an interruption path. The homepage labels the material version 0.1 and draft, and directs objections to a public repository whose changes are recorded in a changelog.
