platform-compatible -public export -abiCompatible : Compatible (ABI 1) (ABI 2) -``` - -### 2. **Type Safety** - -Encode invariants that C/Zig cannot express: - -```idris --- Non-null pointer guaranteed at type level -data Handle : Type where - MkHandle : (ptr : Bits64) -> {auto 0 nonNull : So (ptr /= 0)} -> Handle - --- Array with length proof -data Buffer : (n : Nat) -> Type where -

Windows = Bits32 - -CSize : Platform -> Type -CSize Linux = Bits64 -CSize Windows = Bits64 -``` - -### 4. **Safe Evolution** - -Prove that new ABI versions are backward-compatible: - -```idris --- Compiler enforces compatibility -abiUpgrade : ABI 1 -> ABI 2 -abiUpgrade old = MkABI2 { - -- Must preserve all v1 fields - v1_compat = old, - -- Can add new fields - new_features = defaults -} -``` - -## Why Zig for FFI? - -### 1. **C ABI Compatibility** - -Zig exports C-compatible functions naturally: - -```zig -export fn library_function(param: i32) i32 { - return param * 2; -} -``` - -### 2. **Memory Safety** - -Compile-time safety without runtime overhead: - -```zig -// Null check enforced at compile time -const handle = init() orelse return error.InitFailed; -defer free(handle); -``` - -### 3. **Cross-Compilation** - -Built-in cross-compilation to any platform: - -```bash -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-linux -zig build -Dtarget=aarch64-macos -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-windows -``` - -### 4. **Zero Dependencies** - -No runtime, no libc required (unless explicitly needed): - -```zig -// Minimal binary size -pub const lib = @import("std"); -// Only includes what you use -``` - -## Building - -### Build FFI Library - -```bash -cd ffi/zig -zig build # Build debug -zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast # Build optimized -zig build test # Run tests -``` - -### Generate C Header from

proving properties about the ABI at compile-time: - -```idris --- Prove struct size is correct -public export -exampleStructSize : HasSize ExampleStruct 16 - --- Prove field alignment is correct -public export -fieldAligned : Divides 8 (offsetOf ExampleStruct.field) - --- Prove ABI is platform-compatible -public export -abiCompatible : Compatible (ABI 1) (ABI 2) -``` - -### 2. **Type Safety** - -Encode invariants that C/Zig cannot express: - -```idris --- Non-null pointer guaranteed at type level -data Handle : Type where - MkHandle : (ptr : Bits64) -> {auto 0 nonNull : So (ptr /= 0)} -> Handle - --- Array with length proof -data Buffer : (n : Nat) -> Type where - MkBuffer : Vect n Byte -> Buffer n -``` - -### 3. **Platform Abstraction** - -Platform-specific types with compile-time selection: - -```idris -CInt : Platform -> Type -CInt Linux = Bits32 -CInt Windows = Bits32 - -CSize : Platform -> Type -CSize Linux = Bits64 -CSize Windows = Bits64 -``` - -### 4. **Safe Evolution** - -Prove that new ABI versions are backward-compatible: - -```idris --- Compiler enforces compatibility -abiUpgrade : ABI 1 -> ABI 2 -abiUpgrade old = MkABI2 { - -- Must preserve all v1 fields - v1_compat = old, - -- Can add new fields - new_features = defaults -} -``` - -## Why Zig for FFI? - -### 1. **C ABI Compatibility** - -Zig exports C-compatible functions naturally: - -```zig -export fn library_function(param: i32) i32 { - return param * 2; -} -``` - -### 2. **Memory Safety** - -Compile-time safety without runtime overhead: - -```zig -// Null check enforced at compile time -const handle = init() orelse return error.InitFailed; -defer free(handle); -``` - -### 3. **Cross-Compilation** - -Built-in cross-compilation to any platform: - -```bash -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-linux -zig build -Dtarget=aarch64-macos -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-windows -``` - -### 4. **Zero Dependencies** - -No runtime, no libc required (unless explicitly needed): - -```zig -// Minimal binary size -pub const lib = @import("std"); -// Only includes what you use -``` - -## Building - -### Build FFI Library - -```bash -cd ffi/zig -zig build # Build debug -zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast # Build optimized -zig build test # Run tests -``` - -### Generate C Header from Idris2 ABI - -```bash -cd src/abi -idris2 --cg c-header Types.idr -o ../../generated/abi/{{project}}.h -``` - -### Cross-Compile - -```bash -cd ffi/zig - -# Linux x86_64 -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-linux - -# macOS ARM64 -zig build -Dtarget=aarch64-macos - -# Windows x86_64 -zig build -Dtarget=x86_64-windows -``` - -## Usage - -### From C - -```c -#include "{{project}}.h" - -int main() { - void* handle = {{project}}_init(); - if (!handle) return 1; - - int result = {{project}}_process(handle, 42); - if (result != 0) { - const char* err = {{project}}_last_error(); - fprintf(stderr, "Error: %s\n", err); - } - - {{project}}_free(handle); - return 0; -} -``` - -Compile with: -```bash -gcc -o example example.c -l{{project}} -L./zig-out/lib -``` - -### From Idris2 - -```idris -import {{PROJECT}}.ABI.Foreign - -main : IO () -main = do - Just handle <- init - | Nothing => putStrLn "Failed to initialize" - - Right result <- process handle 42 - | Left err => putStrLn $ "Error: " ++ errorDescription err - - free handle - putStrLn "Success" -``` - -### From Rust - -```rust -#[link(name = "{{project}}")] -extern "C" { - fn {{project}}_init() -> *mut std::ffi::c_void; - fn {{project}}_free(handle: *mut std::ffi::c_void); - fn {{project}}_process(handle: *mut std::ffi::c_void, input: u32) -> i32; -} - -fn main() { - unsafe { - let handle = {{project}}_init(); - assert!(!handle.is_null()); - - let result = {{project}}_process(handle, 42); - assert_eq!(result, 0); - - {{project}}_free(handle); - } -} -``` - -### From Julia - -```julia -const lib{{project}} = "lib{{project}}" - -function init() - handle = ccall((:{{project}}_init, lib{{project}}), Ptr{Cvoid}, ()) - handle == C_NULL && error("Failed to initialize") - handle -end - -function process(handle, input) - result = ccall((:{{project}}_process, lib{{project}}), Cint, (Ptr{Cvoid}, UInt32), handle, input) - result -end - -function cleanup(handle) - ccall((:{{project}}_free, lib{{project}}), Cvoid, (Ptr{Cvoid},), handle) -end - -# Usage -handle = init() -try - result = process(handle, 42) - println("Result: $result") -finally - cleanup(handle) -end -``` - -## Testing - -### Unit Tests (Zig) - -```bash -cd ffi/zig -zig build test -``` - -### Integration Tests - -```bash -cd ffi/zig -zig build test-integration -``` - -### ABI

Line endings are LF (U+000A) by convention; parsers -MUST accept CR+LF (U+000D U+000A) and normalise to LF internally. - ---- - -## Security Considerations - -A2ML is a document markup format comparable to Markdown and AsciiDoc. It is -not executable by itself and does not contain active content. - -**Executable content:** A2ML MAY embed opaque payload blocks (using the -`@opaque` directive) and code blocks (using fenced code blocks) that can -contain code, scripts, or other executable content. Processors MUST treat -opaque payloads and code blocks as untrusted data and MUST NOT execute -embedded content by default. If an implementation offers execution or -evaluation features (e.g., running code blocks in a REPL environment), it -MUST: - -- (a) Operate in a sandboxed context with restricted privileges -- (b) Require explicit user consent before execution -- (c) Clearly indicate which content is being executed -- (d) Provide mechanisms to disable execution entirely - -**Privacy:** A2ML documents may contain personally identifiable information -(PII) in author metadata, abstracts, or content blocks. Implementations -SHOULD provide mechanisms to redact or strip metadata when sharing documents. -Opaque payloads may contain sensitive data and SHOULD be inspected before -transmission across trust boundaries. - -**Integrity and cryptographic attestation:** A2ML documents support -cryptographic attestation via Ed25519 signatures for opaque payloads and -document structure. Implementations that verify signatures MUST validate: - -- (a) Signature correctness against the stated public key -- (b) Timestamp freshness (to prevent replay) -- (c) Public-key trust (via a known-keys list or certificate chain) - -Documents without signatures SHOULD be treated as unverified. - -**Compression:** A2ML does not define a compression layer. If documents are -compressed for transport, standard HTTP Content-Encoding or Transfer-Encoding -mechanisms (RFC 9110) should be used. - -**External references:** A2ML link syntax (`[label](url)`) and `@ref()` -directives may reference external resources. Implementations MUST NOT -automatically fetch external resources without user consent. - ---- - -## Interoperability Considerations - -A2ML is designed for cross-platform interoperability with progressive -strictness modes: - -- **Lax mode**: Permissive parsing, warnings only -- **Checked mode**: Structural validation required (unique IDs, valid - cross-references, well-formed directives) -- **Attested mode**: Cryptographic attestation required, enforced by - dependent-type proofs in the Idris2 reference implementation - -Character encoding is UTF-8 (RFC 3629). Byte Order Marks (U+FEFF) at the -start of a document are permitted but not required; parsers MUST accept and -silently consume a leading BOM. - -Opaque payloads are preserved byte-for-byte across parsing and serialisation. -Renderers MAY transform opaque content for display but MUST retain the -original bytes for attestation and round-trip fidelity. - -A2ML is renderer-agnostic and can be converted to HTML5, LaTeX/PDF, -Markdown (CommonMark), Djot, or plain text. - -Implementations SHOULD support all three strictness modes. - ---- - -## Published Specification - -- **Primary specification (v1.0.0, Stable):** - https://github.com/hyperpolymath/standards/blob/main/a2ml/SPEC-v1.0.adoc - -- **Surface grammar specification (v0, Draft):** - https://github.com/hyperpolymath/standards/blob/main/a2ml/SPEC.adoc - -- **Formal verification (Idris2 typed core):** - https://github.com/hyperpolymath/a2ml/tree/main/src/A2ML - ---- - -## Application Usage - -A2ML is used by: - -- A2ML compilers and validators (the `a2ml` command-line tool) -- Static site generators that consume A2ML documents -- Document management systems requiring formal structure guarantees -- Academic publishing workflows for papers and specifications -- Technical documentation with verifiable cross-references -- Standards bodies requiring attested document integrity -- AI agent manifest files (0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml, AI.a2ml) - -Reference implementation: https://github.com/hyperpolymath/standards/tree/main/a2ml - ---- - -## Fragment Identifier Considerations - -Fragment identifiers for A2ML documents refer to element IDs. - -**Syntax:** `#` where `` matches `[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9:_-]*` - -**Examples:** -- `#intro` -- references a section with id="intro" -- `#fig:results` -- references a figure with id="fig:results" -- `#tab:data` -- references a table with id="tab:data" - -**Resolution:** Fragment MUST match an element with the specified ID. If no -match, the user agent SHOULD treat it as unresolvable without raising an -error. ID uniqueness enforcement depends on the strictness mode -(attested > checked > lax). - ---- - -## Restrictions on Usage - -None. - ---- - -## Provisional Registration - -**No.** (Vendor-tree registration; provisional applies only to standards tree.) - ---- - -## Additional Information - -| Field | Value | -|-------|-------| -| **Deprecated alias names** | None | -| **Magic number(s)** | None (text-based format; identified by file extension or content detection of A2ML directives such as `@abstract:`, `@refs:`, `@opaque:`) | -| **File extension(s)** | `.a2ml` | -| **Macintosh file type code(s)** | None | -| **Object Identifier(s) / OID(s)** | None | -| **Intended usage** | COMMON | - -### Other Comments - -A2ML (Attested Markup Language) is a lightweight markup language that compiles -to a typed, verifiable core with formal proof obligations. It enables -progressive strictness: from permissive authoring to formally verified -structural invariants enforced by dependent types in Idris2. - -The format is designed for long-term document preservation with cryptographic -attestation and byte-for-byte opaque payload fidelity. - ---- - -## Contact Information - -| Field | Value | -|-------|-------| -| **Contact Name** | Jonathan D.A.

We demonstrate that A2ML's hybrid architecture—a Djot-inspired surface syntax compiled to a dependently-typed core—enables progressive strictness without sacrificing usability. Our implementation includes a formally verified parser that compiles to JavaScript (45KB) and a ReScript-based GUI.

A2ML

-

Attested Markup Language

-

Every AI agent needs an identity. A2ML gives them one.

-

A universal manifest format that lets AI agents declare their capabilities, -prove their provenance through attestation chains, and establish trust -through verifiable metadata.

-Get Started -
- -## What is A2ML? - -A2ML (Attested Markup Language) is a structured document format designed for the age of AI agents. It solves a fundamental problem: **how do you know what an AI agent is, what it can do, and whether you should trust it?** - -A2ML files (`.a2ml`) act as identity documents for software agents. They combine human-readable markup with machine-verifiable attestation blocks, creating a chain of trust that can be audited by both people and automated systems. - -
-
-

Attestation Chains

-

Every claim is backed by a verifiable attestation. Agents sign their capabilities, and auditors countersign. Trust is earned, not assumed.

-
-
-

Provenance Tracking

-

Know exactly where a manifest came from, who authored it, and what has changed. Full lineage from creation to deployment.

-
-
-

Agent Identity

-

Unique agent identifiers, capability declarations, and trust levels. Every agent in your system has a clear, auditable identity.

-
-
-

CI/CD Native

-

Designed to live in repositories alongside code. Validate manifests in pipelines, enforce policies in pull requests, audit in production.

-
-
- -## Why A2ML? - -As AI agents proliferate across CI/CD pipelines, security scanners, code reviewers, and orchestration systems, the question of **agent accountability** becomes critical. Who deployed this bot? What permissions does it have? Who attested to its behaviour? - -A2ML answers these questions with a format that is: - -- **Human-readable** — uses familiar markup syntax with headings, lists, and paragraphs -- **Machine-parseable** — directive blocks (`@attestation:` ... `@end`) carry structured data -- **Auditable** — attestation chains create a verifiable trust graph -- **Composable** — agents can reference each other's manifests to build multi-agent trust networks - -## Tooling Ecosystem - -A2ML is not a paper specification.

Protocol Code of Conduct + +Like the technical community as a whole, the Axel Protocol team and +community is made up of a mixture of professionals and volunteers from +all over the world, working on every aspect of the mission - including +mentorship, teaching, and connecting people. + +Diversity is one of our huge strengths, but it can also lead to +communication issues and unhappiness. To that end, we have a few ground +rules that we ask people to adhere to. This code applies equally to +founders, mentors and those seeking help and guidance. + +This isn’t an exhaustive list of things that you can’t do. Rather, take +it in the spirit in which it’s intended - a guide to make it easier to +enrich all of us and the technical communities in which we participate. + +This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the Axel Protocol +project or . This includes IRC, the mailing lists, the issue tracker, +DSF events, and any other forums created by the project team which the +community uses for communication. In addition, violations of this code +outside these spaces may affect a person’s ability to participate within +them. + +If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct, we ask that you +report it by emailing mailto:[]. For more details please see our + +* *Be friendly and patient.* +* *Be welcoming.* We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports +people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not +limited to members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, +colour, immigration status, social and economic class, educational +level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, +size, family status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical +ability. +* *Be considerate.* Your work will be used by other people, and you in +turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will +affect users and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into +account when making decisions. Remember that we’re a world-wide +community, so you might not be communicating in someone else’s primary +language. +* *Be respectful.* Not all of us will agree all the time, but +disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might +all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that +frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s important to remember +that a community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a +productive one. Members of the Axel Protocol community should be +respectful when dealing with other members as well as with people +outside the Axel Protocol community. +* *Be careful in the words that you choose.* We are a community of +professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to +others. Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and +other exclusionary behavior aren’t acceptable. This includes, but is not +limited to: +* Violent threats or language directed against another person. +* Discriminatory jokes and language. +* Posting sexually explicit or violent material. +* Posting (or threatening to post) other people’s personally identifying +information ("`doxing`"). +* Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms. +* Unwelcome sexual attention. +* Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior. +* Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to +stop, then stop. +* *When we disagree, try to understand why.* Disagreements, both social +and technical, happen all the time and Axel Protocol is no exception. It +is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views +constructively. Remember that we’re different. The strength of Axel +Protocol comes from its varied community, people from a wide range of +backgrounds.

To that end, we have a few ground rules that we ask people to adhere to. This code applies equally to founders, mentors and those seeking help and guidance. - -This isn’t an exhaustive list of things that you can’t do. Rather, take it in the spirit in which it’s intended - a guide to make it easier to enrich all of us and the technical communities in which we participate. - -This code of conduct applies to all spaces managed by the Axel Protocol project or . This includes IRC, the mailing lists, the issue tracker, DSF events, and any other forums created by the project team which the community uses for communication. In addition, violations of this code outside these spaces may affect a person's ability to participate within them. - -If you believe someone is violating the code of conduct, we ask that you report it by emailing [](mailto:). For more details please see our - -- **Be friendly and patient.** -- **Be welcoming.** We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited to members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, colour, immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, size, family status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical ability. -- **Be considerate.** Your work will be used by other people, and you in turn will depend on the work of others. Any decision you take will affect users and colleagues, and you should take those consequences into account when making decisions. Remember that we're a world-wide community, so you might not be communicating in someone else's primary language. -- **Be respectful.** Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s important to remember that a community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one. Members of the Axel Protocol community should be respectful when dealing with other members as well as with people outside the Axel Protocol community. -- **Be careful in the words that you choose.** We are a community of professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary behavior aren't acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to: - - Violent threats or language directed against another person. - - Discriminatory jokes and language. - - Posting sexually explicit or violent material. - - Posting (or threatening to post) other people's personally identifying information ("doxing"). - - Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms. - - Unwelcome sexual attention. - - Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior. - - Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop. -- **When we disagree, try to understand why.** Disagreements, both social and technical, happen all the time and Axel Protocol is no exception. It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember that we’re different. The strength of Axel Protocol comes from its varied community, people from a wide range of backgrounds. Different people have different perspectives on issues. Being unable to understand why someone holds a viewpoint doesn’t mean that they’re wrong. Don’t forget that it is human to err and blaming each other doesn’t get us anywhere. Instead, focus on helping to resolve issues and learning from mistakes. - -Original text courtesy of the [Speak Up! project](http://web.archive.org/web/20141109123859/http://speakup.io/coc.html). - -## Questions? - -If you have questions, please see .

If missing, the record MUST be rejected. -4. Ignore unknown keys (forward compatibility). -5. Treat the entire record as invalid if required keys are missing or malformed. - -Parsers MUST NOT: - -1. Default `v` to `AXEL1` if absent. -2. Accept empty or whitespace-only `id` values. -3. Parse full RR lines (owner name + TTL + class + type + RDATA) as if they - were payload. - -### 2.3 DNSSEC Requirements - -Enforcers operating in `enforce` posture MUST require DNSSEC validation -for the `_axel.` TXT record before making enforcement decisions. - -Enforcers in `testing` posture SHOULD require DNSSEC validation but MAY -log and continue if validation fails. - -Publishers SHOULD sign their zones with DNSSEC. - ---- - -## 3. Policy Retrieval - -### 3.1 Policy URL - -The canonical policy URL for a domain is: - -``` -https:///.well-known/axel-policy -``` - -Enforcers MUST fetch the policy from this URL using HTTPS (TLS 1.3; see -[Transport Security](transport.md)). - -The response MUST be `application/json` with a valid AXEL Policy Object -(see [Policy Object Specification](policy.md)). - -### 3.2 Policy ID Pinning - -Policy ID pinning follows the MTA-STS model [RFC 8461]: - -1. On first fetch, the enforcer records the `id` from the DNS TXT record - and the corresponding policy document. -2. On subsequent DNS lookups, if the `id` has changed, the enforcer MUST - re-fetch the policy from the well-known URL. -3. If the `id` has not changed and the cached policy has not expired, the - enforcer SHOULD use the cached policy. - -### 3.3 Caching - -The policy object includes caching directives: - -```json -{ - "cache": { - "max_age_seconds": 86400, - "stale_if_error_seconds": 604800 - } -} -``` - -| Field | Description | -|-------|-------------| -| `max_age_seconds` | Maximum time (in seconds) to cache the policy before re-fetching. | -| `stale_if_error_seconds` | Time (in seconds) a stale policy may be used if the policy endpoint is unreachable. | - -### 3.4 Failure Behavior - -When policy retrieval fails: - -| Scenario | Testing Posture | Enforce Posture | -|----------|-----------------|-----------------| -| DNS record absent | No enforcement | No enforcement | -| DNS record present, policy fetch fails | Log, use last-known-good | Use last-known-good within `stale_if_error_seconds`; if expired, enforcer choice (fail-open or fail-closed) | -| DNS record present, policy invalid JSON | Log, ignore | Treat as no policy (fail-open) or reject (fail-closed); enforcer choice | -| DNS `id` changed, new policy fetch fails | Log, keep old policy | Keep old policy within `stale_if_error_seconds` | - -**Last-known-good**: Enforcers SHOULD cache the most recent valid policy and -use it as a fallback when the policy endpoint is temporarily unavailable. -The `stale_if_error_seconds` field governs how long a stale policy remains -usable. - -**Fail-open vs. fail-closed**: The posture decision (whether to fail-open -or fail-closed when no valid policy is available) is an enforcer/operator -choice, not a protocol requirement. AXEL does not mandate either behavior. - ---- - -## 4. Security Considerations - -### 4.1 DNS Spoofing - -**Threat**: Attacker publishes fraudulent `_axel` TXT records. -**Mitigation**: DNSSEC validation is REQUIRED for `enforce` posture. - -### 4.2 Policy Tampering - -**Threat**: Attacker modifies policy in transit. -**Mitigation**: TLS 1.3 is REQUIRED for policy endpoint; HSTS RECOMMENDED. - -### 4.3 Downgrade Attacks - -**Threat**: Attacker removes `_axel` TXT record or prevents policy fetch. -**Mitigation**: Last-known-good caching with `stale_if_error_seconds`. -Publishers MAY submit domains to AXEL preload lists (future extension). - -### 4.4 Privacy - -Encrypted DNS (DoH, DoT, DoQ) protects DNS queries against on-path observers. -However, enforcing operators still observe what they must to enforce. -AXEL aims for: - -- No deep packet inspection (DPI) -- Minimal data retention -- No stable cross-site identifiers - -AXEL does NOT claim that encrypted DNS alone prevents ISP logging of -enforcement actions. Operators performing enforcement necessarily observe -the domains and policies they enforce. - ---- - -## 5.

See the AXEL policy for verification options.", - "instance": "/api/v1/content/12345", - "axel_policy": "https://explicit.example.com/.well-known/axel-policy" -} -``` - -**Requirements**: - -- **403 Forbidden**: the response MUST use 403 to indicate the request is - understood but denied without proof. -- **application/problem+json**: the response MUST use RFC 9457 problem details. -- **`type` URI**: SHOULD use a registered AXEL problem type. -- **`axel_policy` field**: MUST include a pointer to the AXEL policy URL. - -### 4.2 After Proof - -Once the client provides valid proof, the origin serves the requested content -normally (200 OK). The proof mechanism and its transport are out of scope -for AXEL v1. - ---- - -## 5. Response Headers - -### 5.1 Summary - -| Header | When | Purpose | -|--------|------|---------| -| `Link: <...>; rel="axel-policy"` | All responses (SHOULD), gating responses (MUST) | Policy discovery | -| `Cache-Control: no-store` | Gating responses (MUST) | Prevent caching of gate redirects | -| `Vary: *` | Gating responses (RECOMMENDED) | Signal that response varies by proof state | - -### 5.2 No Custom Headers - -AXEL-O intentionally avoids defining custom HTTP headers. Discovery uses -the standard `Link` header with a registered relation type. This maximizes -compatibility with existing HTTP infrastructure (proxies, CDNs, caches). - ---- - -## 6. Proof Formats (Out of Scope for v1) - -AXEL v1 deliberately does NOT mandate a specific proof format. Possible -future extensions include: - -- JWT bearer tokens -- Zero-knowledge proof presentations -- Privacy Pass tokens -- OAuth 2.0 token exchange - -The proof format is a matter between the verifier and the publisher/origin. -AXEL v1 standardizes only the policy discovery and gating signals, not the -proof exchange. - ---- - -## 7. CDN Integration - -CDN edges implementing AXEL-O: - -1. Fetch and cache the AXEL policy for configured domains. -2. On incoming requests, check for valid proof (mechanism is CDN-specific). -3. If no proof: return the gating response (303 for browsers, 403 for APIs). -4. If valid proof: proxy to origin normally. -5. Include the `Link` header on all proxied responses. - -CDNs MAY implement proof verification at the edge or delegate to the origin. - ---- - -## 8. Security Considerations - -### 8.1 Open Redirectors - -The `return_to` parameter in the gate redirect MUST be validated by the gate -page to prevent open redirect vulnerabilities. The gate page SHOULD only -redirect to URLs within the same origin. - -### 8.2 Cache Poisoning - -Gating responses MUST use `Cache-Control: no-store` to prevent CDN or browser -caches from serving gate redirects to verified users. - -### 8.3 Bypass via Direct IP - -If the origin's IP address is known, an attacker could bypass CDN-level -AXEL-O enforcement by connecting directly. Publishers SHOULD restrict -origin access to CDN source IPs (standard origin hardening). - ---- - -## 9. Examples - -### 9.1 Full Browser Flow - -``` -1.

It provides a uniform vocabulary for communicating the +readiness of individual components within a project, mapping each grade +to a release threshold and requiring specific evidence thresholds for +each level. + +This v2 revision intentionally raises the bar. It narrows what can +honestly be called alpha, beta, stable, or published work; it requires +stronger repository discipline earlier; and it treats long periods in +alpha or beta as evidence of honesty rather than failure. + +This standard is designed to be adopted by any software project +regardless of language, framework, or domain. It is part of the Rhodium +Standard Repositories (RSR) family of standards maintained by +hyperpolymath. + +''''' + +=== 1. Scope + +This standard applies to: + +* Individual software components (subcommands, modules, features, APIs, +libraries, plugins, integrations). +* Any project that wishes to communicate the readiness of its parts with +precision and honesty. +* Internal assessment (development planning) and external communication +(release documentation, changelogs, user-facing quality indicators). + +This standard does NOT apply to: + +* Whole-project grading. Projects are collections of components; grade +each component individually. +* Third-party dependency assessment. Grade your integration with a +dependency, not the dependency itself. +* Non-software artifacts (documentation, design assets) unless the +project chooses to extend the scheme. + +''''' + +=== 2. Normative References + +* *RSR (Rhodium Standard Repositories):* The repository quality +framework within which CRG operates. +* *Semver 2.0.0:* CRG is orthogonal to semantic versioning. A +component’s CRG grade tracks validation evidence; semver tracks API +compatibility. + +''''' + +=== 3. Terms and Definitions + +* *Component:* A discrete, assessable unit of software. This may be a +CLI subcommand, a library module, a feature, an API endpoint, a plugin, +or any other unit that can be tested and evaluated independently. +* *Home context:* The project’s own codebase, configuration, workflow, +and use cases. The environment in which the component was developed. +* *Dogfooding:* Using the component on the project itself. +* *Broad validation:* Testing the component on at least six diverse, +unrelated targets outside the home context. +* *Field-proven:* Demonstrated value through real-world external use +with feedback from users outside the development team. +* *Diverse targets:* Targets that differ in ways that matter for the +component under test. Six variations of the same thing do not constitute +diversity. +* *RSR-compliant:* The repository satisfies the Rhodium Standard +Repository baseline or has a documented equivalent that covers +repository structure, governance, machine-readable state, and audit +surfaces. +* *Deep code and folder annotation:* Documentation and structural +annotation that let an external reviewer navigate the component without +source archaeology. At minimum this means purpose, boundaries, +invariants, execution/test/proof surfaces, and per-directory orientation +where the code would otherwise be opaque. +* *Abstract publication:* A paper, note, or position piece that makes no +implementation-readiness claim and clearly separates proved results, +working artefacts, conjectures, and future work. + +''''' + +=== 4. Grade Definitions + +==== 4.1. Grade X — Untested + +*Release stage:* None + +No testing has been performed. The component’s status is completely +unknown. Not even a smoke test has been run. This is the default state +for any new component that has not yet been evaluated. + +*Examples:* + +* A subcommand that was written but never invoked after the initial +implementation. +* A library module that compiles but has never been exercised against +real input. +* A feature that exists in code but was never demonstrated to a user or +developer. + +*Evidence required:* None. This grade represents the absence of +evidence. + +==== 4.2. Grade F — Harmful / Wasteful + +*Release stage:* Reject, deprecate, or delegate + +Tested and found to be actively harmful, a significant opportunity cost, +a waste of resources, offering nothing helpful, or redundant because +someone else does the job better and the effort should be redirected. +The component does more harm than good. + +Grade F is not merely "`bad quality.`" It encompasses strategic +assessment: even a technically functional component earns an F if the +time spent maintaining it would be better invested elsewhere, or if an +existing external tool already solves the problem more effectively. + +*Examples:* + +* A subcommand that silently corrupts data under certain conditions. +* A feature that duplicates what an established external tool already +does, but worse, and maintaining it diverts effort from the project’s +actual value proposition. +* A module that introduces a heavy dependency tree for marginal benefit. +* A component whose maintenance burden exceeds its utility to any known +user. + +*Evidence required:* + +* Documented test results showing harm, waste, or redundancy. +* Comparison with alternatives (if the F grade is for opportunity cost +or delegation). +* A clear statement of why the component should be rejected, deprecated, +or delegated. + +==== 4.3. Grade E — Minimal / Salvageable + +*Release stage:* Pre-alpha (needs redesign or major work) + +Does something slight. The component could be salvageable with +significant rework, but it is currently barely functional or useful. +There is a kernel of value, but it is buried under incomplete +implementation, poor design, or fundamental gaps. + +*Examples:* + +* A parser that handles the happy path but crashes on any malformed +input. +* A CLI subcommand that works for one specific file format but fails on +all others. +* A feature that produces output, but the output is frequently wrong or +misleading. + +*Evidence required:* + +* At least one successful test case demonstrating the kernel of +functionality. +* Documentation of known failures and limitations. +* A rough assessment of what rework would be needed to reach grade D. + +==== 4.4. Grade D — Partial / Inconsistent + +*Release stage:* Alpha + +*Stability posture:* Unstable + +*Honest shorthand:* `+alpha-unstable+` + +Works on some inputs, some cases, or some configurations, but not +systematically. The component either needs to be narrowed in scope (so +that its documented capabilities match its actual capabilities) or needs +the inconsistencies fixed. It has crossed out of pure pre-alpha +experimentation, but it is not yet safe enough to be called stable even +in the home context. + +*Examples:* + +* A formatter that handles 4 out of 7 supported languages correctly. +* A database driver that works with PostgreSQL but silently drops +connections with MySQL. +* A validation module that catches 60% of invalid inputs but passes the +rest. + +*Evidence required:* + +* A matrix of tested scenarios showing where the component succeeds and +fails. +* Documented scope: what it claims to do vs. what it actually does. +* At least one test per claimed capability (some will be failing — that +is expected at grade D). +* RSR compliance, or a documented equivalent repository discipline, so +that the component is at least inspectable and auditable while still +unstable. +* *Immaculate Guide compliance* (hyperpolymath projects): The repository +MUST satisfy the nine principles of the Hyperpolymath Immaculate Guide +(`+immaculate-guide/IMMACULATE-GUIDE.adoc+`). Evidence recorded in +`+.machine_readable/STATE.a2ml+` under +`+(immaculate-guide-compliance ...)+`. Specifically at minimum: +`+0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml+` present, `+.tool-versions+` pins all tools, +`+just build+` works from a clean `+asdf install+`, and +`+panic-attack assail+` passes (no Critical/High findings). + +==== 4.5. Grade C — Self-Validated + +*Release stage:* Alpha + +*Stability posture:* Stable in home context + +*Honest shorthand:* `+alpha-stable+` + +Tested on the tool or project itself (dogfooding). The component works +reliably in the home context. "`Home context`" means the project’s own +codebase, configuration, workflow, and use cases. This is the minimum +grade for an Alpha release. + +The key distinction from grade D is reliability: at grade C, the +component does not just work on some things — it works consistently on +everything within its home context. It has borne the first serious wave +of breakage inside the originating environment. + +*Examples:* + +* A linter that is run on its own codebase in CI and catches real +issues. +* A migration tool that was used to migrate the project’s own database +schema. +* A CLI subcommand that the development team uses daily in their own +workflow. + +*Evidence required:* + +* The component is actively used on the project itself (dogfooding). +* CI integration or equivalent automated validation in the home context. +* No known failures within the home context (failures outside it are +acceptable and expected at this stage). +* Deep code and folder annotation sufficient for an external reviewer to +trace what the component is, where the critical paths live, and how it +is checked. + +==== 4.6. Grade B — Broadly Validated + +*Release stage:* Beta + +*Stability posture:* Stable for broad trial + +*Honest shorthand:* `+beta-stable+` + +Tested on at least six disparate, unrelated targets. The component +demonstrates breadth and generality. The six targets MUST be genuinely +diverse — not six variations of the same thing. The component has +escaped the home repo boundary and been seen behaving as a release +elsewhere. This is the minimum grade for a Beta release. + +The number six is deliberate: it is enough to reveal assumptions baked +into the home context without being so high that it becomes impossible +to make progress. A long beta at this grade is not embarrassment; it is +evidence that the project refuses to overclaim. + +This is also the minimum grade for non-abstract publication of +implementation work. If the component is below B, publication should be +limited to abstract or explicitly provisional writing that does not +imply community-safe software. + +CRG intentionally does not treat "`beta`" as a soft synonym for "`still +shaky.`" If a component is externally visible but not yet stable enough +for broad trial, describe it as `+public alpha+` or `+alpha-stable+`, +not `+beta+`. + +*Examples:* + +* A code formatter tested on six open-source projects in different +languages, of different sizes, with different coding styles. +* A container scanner tested against images from six different base +distributions, frameworks, and deployment patterns. +* A database migration tool tested on six schemas of varying complexity +from unrelated domains. + +*Evidence required:* + +* A list of the six (or more) targets with brief descriptions of why +they are diverse. +* Test results for each target (pass/fail, with notes on any issues +found and resolved). +* Evidence that issues discovered during broad validation were fed back +into the component. + +==== 4.7. Grade A — Field-Proven + +*Release stage:* Stable + +Real-world feedback has been amassed from external use. The component +has been shown to do no harm in the wild. It is actually useful to +people outside the development team. This is the minimum grade for a +Stable release. + +*Grade A does NOT mean:* + +* Perfection. There is always more to do. +* Completion. New features can still be added. +* Freedom from bugs. Bugs will exist; what matters is that the component +has demonstrated net positive value. + +*Grade A DOES mean:* + +* External users have used it and provided feedback. +* The component has not regressed under real-world conditions. +* It has earned its grade through demonstrated value, and it has not +lost that grade through harm or neglect. + +*Examples:* + +* A CLI tool with issue reports from external users, where reported bugs +were triaged and the tool continued to deliver value. +* A library published to a registry with downloads and usage reports +from independent projects. +* A feature that external contributors have built upon or integrated +into their own workflows. + +*Evidence required:* + +* Real-world usage data (downloads, issue reports, user testimonials, +external integrations). +* Evidence of feedback incorporation (issues addressed, documentation +improved based on user confusion, etc.). +* No unresolved reports of the component causing harm in external +environments. + +''''' + +=== 5.

If +the component is not yet stable enough for broad external trial, keep it +in alpha. + +==== 5.1. Publication Mapping + +* *Below B:* Do not publish implementation-facing work as if it were +ready for community reliance. +* *B and above:* Suitable for public release notes, whitepapers, talks, +and submissions that describe working software, provided the claims +match the evidence and any remaining assumptions are explicit. +* *Exception for abstract work:* Earlier publication is acceptable for +theory, design, position, or exploratory work if it is explicit that the +implementation is incomplete, unvalidated, or still conjectural. + +''''' + +=== 6. Assessment Guidelines + +==== 6.1. Core Principles + +*Principle 1: Assess components, not projects.* A project is a +collection of components. Each component gets its own grade. A project +with ten A-grade components and one F-grade component is not an A-grade +project — it is a project with a clear candidate for deprecation. + +*Principle 2: Evidence over intuition.* Every grade above X requires +evidence. "`I think it works`" is not evidence. "`I ran it on X and here +is what happened`" is evidence. The evidence bar rises with each grade. + +*Principle 3: Grades are earned and can be lost.* A component at grade A +can be demoted if it regresses, if external feedback reveals harm, or if +the ecosystem shifts and an alternative becomes clearly superior. Grades +are not permanent awards. + +*Principle 4: Honest assessment over aspirational grading.* Grade the +component as it is today, not as you hope it will be next week. A +component honestly graded D is more valuable than one dishonestly graded +B, because the honest grade tells you where to focus effort. + +*Principle 5: Long alpha and beta phases are acceptable.* If alpha means +hard internal dogfooding and beta means genuine external validation, +both stages may last a long time. That is a sign of discipline, not +drift. + +*Principle 6: Earlier structure, earlier scrutiny.* CRG v2 deliberately +pulls repository discipline and navigability forward: D requires RSR +compliance or equivalent, and C requires deep annotation instead of +treating those as optional polish. + +*Principle 7: Challenge is welcome.* If practitioners from software +engineering, QA, formal methods, or mathematics think this standard is +still too weak, they should say why. A release gate earns trust by +surviving critique, not by avoiding it. + +==== 6.2. Assessment Checklist + +When grading a component, answer these questions in order: + +[arabic] +. *Has it been tested at all?* (No → X) +. *Does it cause harm, waste resources, or duplicate something better?* +(Yes → F) +. *Does it do something, however slight?* (Barely → E) +. *Does it work on some things but not others?* (Partial → D) +. *Is the repository auditable enough to deserve D at all?* +(RSR-compliant or equivalent; Immaculate Guide compliant for +hyperpolymath projects) +. *Does it work reliably on our own project, and is it deeply +annotated?* (Dogfooded → C) +. *Has it been tested on 6+ diverse external targets?* (Broad → B) +. *Do external users confirm it works and is useful?* (Field-proven → A) + +==== 6.3. When to Assess + +* *Before any release:* All components included in the release MUST be +graded. +* *After significant changes:* If a component is substantially +rewritten, re-assess from X (unless the rewrite preserved all existing +test evidence). +* *Periodically:* At least once per release cycle, review all grades for +staleness. + +==== 6.4. Recording Assessments + +Assessments SHALL be recorded in a durable, version-controlled location. +Recommended locations (in order of preference): + +[arabic] +. A `+READINESS.md+` file in the project root. +. A section in the project’s `+.machine_readable/STATE.scm+` file. +. Inline in the component’s own documentation. + +==== 6.5. Communicating Grades Externally + +When communicating grades to users: + +* *A and B:* Safe to advertise. These grades have external evidence. +* *C:* Appropriate for `+alpha-stable+` documentation. Be clear that +validation is strong in the home context but not yet external. +* *B:* Appropriate for `+beta-stable+` documentation. Be clear that +external breadth exists, but field-proof is still being earned. +* *D:* Appropriate for pre-alpha or experimental documentation. Be +explicit about known gaps. +* *E, F, X:* Internal only. Do not ship components at these grades +unless clearly marked as experimental or deprecated. + +For papers, whitepapers, and submission-facing prose, the same honesty +rule applies.

Informative Notes + +==== 9.1. Relationship to Semver + +CRG is orthogonal to semantic versioning. Semver tracks API +compatibility. CRG tracks quality and validation evidence. A component +can be at semver 3.0.0 and grade D (if it has never been broadly +validated), or at semver 0.1.0 and grade A (if it shipped early and +accumulated real-world feedback). + +==== 9.2. Third-Party Dependencies + +This scheme is for components you maintain. You SHOULD NOT grade +third-party dependencies themselves. However, you MAY assess your +_integration_ with a third-party dependency — not the dependency itself, +but how well your code uses it. + +==== 9.3. Grade Permanence + +No grade is permanent. Grade F is not a death sentence: a component +graded F because a better alternative existed can be re-evaluated if +that alternative disappears or degrades. A component graded F for +causing harm can be re-evaluated after a redesign. Grade F means "`stop +investing in this as it currently stands,`" not "`this idea is forever +worthless.`" + +Grade A is not a trophy: a component can lose its A grade through +regression, neglect, or ecosystem changes that render it obsolete. + +==== 9.4. Skipping from X to A + +In theory, a component can go from X directly to A if it ships +immediately and external feedback is positive. In practice, this almost +never happens.

Jewell -**Date:** 2026-03-30 -**Status:** Active -**License:** PMPL-1.0-or-later -**Part of:** Rhodium Standard Repositories (RSR) - ---- - -## Abstract - -Component Readiness Grades (CRG) is a general-purpose quality assessment scheme -for software components, features, subcommands, modules, APIs, and libraries. -It provides a uniform vocabulary for communicating the readiness of individual -components within a project, mapping each grade to a release threshold and -requiring specific evidence thresholds for each level. - -This v2 revision intentionally raises the bar. It narrows what can honestly be -called alpha, beta, stable, or published work; it requires stronger repository -discipline earlier; and it treats long periods in alpha or beta as evidence of -honesty rather than failure. - -This standard is designed to be adopted by any software project regardless of -language, framework, or domain. It is part of the Rhodium Standard Repositories -(RSR) family of standards maintained by hyperpolymath. - ---- - -## 1. Scope - -This standard applies to: - -- Individual software components (subcommands, modules, features, APIs, - libraries, plugins, integrations). -- Any project that wishes to communicate the readiness of its parts with - precision and honesty. -- Internal assessment (development planning) and external communication - (release documentation, changelogs, user-facing quality indicators). - -This standard does NOT apply to: - -- Whole-project grading. Projects are collections of components; grade each - component individually. -- Third-party dependency assessment. Grade your integration with a dependency, - not the dependency itself. -- Non-software artifacts (documentation, design assets) unless the project - chooses to extend the scheme. - ---- - -## 2. Normative References - -- **RSR (Rhodium Standard Repositories):** The repository quality framework - within which CRG operates. -- **Semver 2.0.0:** CRG is orthogonal to semantic versioning. A component's - CRG grade tracks validation evidence; semver tracks API compatibility. - ---- - -## 3. Terms and Definitions - -- **Component:** A discrete, assessable unit of software. This may be a CLI - subcommand, a library module, a feature, an API endpoint, a plugin, or any - other unit that can be tested and evaluated independently. -- **Home context:** The project's own codebase, configuration, workflow, and - use cases. The environment in which the component was developed. -- **Dogfooding:** Using the component on the project itself. -- **Broad validation:** Testing the component on at least six diverse, - unrelated targets outside the home context. -- **Field-proven:** Demonstrated value through real-world external use with - feedback from users outside the development team. -- **Diverse targets:** Targets that differ in ways that matter for the - component under test. Six variations of the same thing do not constitute - diversity. -- **RSR-compliant:** The repository satisfies the Rhodium Standard Repository - baseline or has a documented equivalent that covers repository structure, - governance, machine-readable state, and audit surfaces. -- **Deep code and folder annotation:** Documentation and structural annotation - that let an external reviewer navigate the component without source - archaeology. At minimum this means purpose, boundaries, invariants, - execution/test/proof surfaces, and per-directory orientation where the code - would otherwise be opaque. -- **Abstract publication:** A paper, note, or position piece that makes no - implementation-readiness claim and clearly separates proved results, working - artefacts, conjectures, and future work. - ---- - -## 4. Grade Definitions - -### 4.1. Grade X — Untested - -**Release stage:** None - -No testing has been performed. The component's status is completely unknown. -Not even a smoke test has been run. This is the default state for any new -component that has not yet been evaluated. - -**Examples:** - -- A subcommand that was written but never invoked after the initial - implementation. -- A library module that compiles but has never been exercised against real - input. -- A feature that exists in code but was never demonstrated to a user or - developer. - -**Evidence required:** None. This grade represents the absence of evidence. - -### 4.2. Grade F — Harmful / Wasteful - -**Release stage:** Reject, deprecate, or delegate - -Tested and found to be actively harmful, a significant opportunity cost, a -waste of resources, offering nothing helpful, or redundant because someone -else does the job better and the effort should be redirected. The component -does more harm than good. - -Grade F is not merely "bad quality." It encompasses strategic assessment: -even a technically functional component earns an F if the time spent -maintaining it would be better invested elsewhere, or if an existing external -tool already solves the problem more effectively. - -**Examples:** - -- A subcommand that silently corrupts data under certain conditions. -- A feature that duplicates what an established external tool already does, - but worse, and maintaining it diverts effort from the project's actual - value proposition. -- A module that introduces a heavy dependency tree for marginal benefit. -- A component whose maintenance burden exceeds its utility to any known user. - -**Evidence required:** - -- Documented test results showing harm, waste, or redundancy. -- Comparison with alternatives (if the F grade is for opportunity cost or - delegation). -- A clear statement of why the component should be rejected, deprecated, or - delegated. - -### 4.3. Grade E — Minimal / Salvageable - -**Release stage:** Pre-alpha (needs redesign or major work) - -Does something slight. The component could be salvageable with significant -rework, but it is currently barely functional or useful. There is a kernel of -value, but it is buried under incomplete implementation, poor design, or -fundamental gaps. - -**Examples:** - -- A parser that handles the happy path but crashes on any malformed input. -- A CLI subcommand that works for one specific file format but fails on all - others. -- A feature that produces output, but the output is frequently wrong or - misleading. - -**Evidence required:** - -- At least one successful test case demonstrating the kernel of functionality. -- Documentation of known failures and limitations. -- A rough assessment of what rework would be needed to reach grade D. - -### 4.4. Grade D — Partial / Inconsistent - -**Release stage:** Alpha -**Stability posture:** Unstable -**Honest shorthand:** `alpha-unstable` - -Works on some inputs, some cases, or some configurations, but not -systematically. The component either needs to be narrowed in scope (so that -its documented capabilities match its actual capabilities) or needs the -inconsistencies fixed. It has crossed out of pure pre-alpha experimentation, -but it is not yet safe enough to be called stable even in the home context. - -**Examples:** - -- A formatter that handles 4 out of 7 supported languages correctly. -- A database driver that works with PostgreSQL but silently drops connections - with MySQL. -- A validation module that catches 60% of invalid inputs but passes the rest. - -**Evidence required:** - -- A matrix of tested scenarios showing where the component succeeds and fails. -- Documented scope: what it claims to do vs. what it actually does. -- At least one test per claimed capability (some will be failing — that is - expected at grade D). -- RSR compliance, or a documented equivalent repository discipline, so that - the component is at least inspectable and auditable while still unstable. -- **Immaculate Guide compliance** (hyperpolymath projects): The repository MUST - satisfy the nine principles of the Hyperpolymath Immaculate Guide - (`immaculate-guide/IMMACULATE-GUIDE.adoc`). Evidence recorded in - `.machine_readable/STATE.a2ml` under `(immaculate-guide-compliance ...)`. - Specifically at minimum: `0-AI-MANIFEST.a2ml` present, `.tool-versions` - pins all tools, `just build` works from a clean `asdf install`, and - `panic-attack assail` passes (no Critical/High findings). - -### 4.5. Grade C — Self-Validated - -**Release stage:** Alpha -**Stability posture:** Stable in home context -**Honest shorthand:** `alpha-stable` - -Tested on the tool or project itself (dogfooding). The component works -reliably in the home context. "Home context" means the project's own -codebase, configuration, workflow, and use cases. This is the minimum grade -for an Alpha release. - -The key distinction from grade D is reliability: at grade C, the component -does not just work on some things — it works consistently on everything -within its home context. It has borne the first serious wave of breakage -inside the originating environment. - -**Examples:** - -- A linter that is run on its own codebase in CI and catches real issues. -- A migration tool that was used to migrate the project's own database schema. -- A CLI subcommand that the development team uses daily in their own workflow. - -**Evidence required:** - -- The component is actively used on the project itself (dogfooding). -- CI integration or equivalent automated validation in the home context. -- No known failures within the home context (failures outside it are - acceptable and expected at this stage). -- Deep code and folder annotation sufficient for an external reviewer to trace - what the component is, where the critical paths live, and how it is checked. - -### 4.6. Grade B — Broadly Validated - -**Release stage:** Beta -**Stability posture:** Stable for broad trial -**Honest shorthand:** `beta-stable` - -Tested on at least six disparate, unrelated targets. The component -demonstrates breadth and generality. The six targets MUST be genuinely -diverse — not six variations of the same thing. The component has escaped -the home repo boundary and been seen behaving as a release elsewhere. This is -the minimum grade for a Beta release. - -The number six is deliberate: it is enough to reveal assumptions baked into -the home context without being so high that it becomes impossible to make -progress. A long beta at this grade is not embarrassment; it is evidence that -the project refuses to overclaim. - -This is also the minimum grade for non-abstract publication of implementation -work. If the component is below B, publication should be limited to abstract -or explicitly provisional writing that does not imply community-safe software. - -CRG intentionally does not treat "beta" as a soft synonym for "still shaky." -If a component is externally visible but not yet stable enough for broad -trial, describe it as `public alpha` or `alpha-stable`, not `beta`. - -**Examples:** - -- A code formatter tested on six open-source projects in different languages, - of different sizes, with different coding styles. -- A container scanner tested against images from six different base - distributions, frameworks, and deployment patterns. -- A database migration tool tested on six schemas of varying complexity from - unrelated domains. - -**Evidence required:** - -- A list of the six (or more) targets with brief descriptions of why they - are diverse. -- Test results for each target (pass/fail, with notes on any issues found - and resolved). -- Evidence that issues discovered during broad validation were fed back into - the component. - -### 4.7. Grade A — Field-Proven - -**Release stage:** Stable - -Real-world feedback has been amassed from external use. The component has been -shown to do no harm in the wild. It is actually useful to people outside the -development team. This is the minimum grade for a Stable release. - -**Grade A does NOT mean:** - -- Perfection. There is always more to do. -- Completion. New features can still be added. -- Freedom from bugs. Bugs will exist; what matters is that the component has - demonstrated net positive value. - -**Grade A DOES mean:** - -- External users have used it and provided feedback. -- The component has not regressed under real-world conditions. -- It has earned its grade through demonstrated value, and it has not lost - that grade through harm or neglect. - -**Examples:** - -- A CLI tool with issue reports from external users, where reported bugs - were triaged and the tool continued to deliver value. -- A library published to a registry with downloads and usage reports from - independent projects. -- A feature that external contributors have built upon or integrated into - their own workflows. - -**Evidence required:** - -- Real-world usage data (downloads, issue reports, user testimonials, - external integrations). -- Evidence of feedback incorporation (issues addressed, documentation - improved based on user confusion, etc.). -- No unresolved reports of the component causing harm in external - environments. - ---- - -## 5. Release Stage Mapping - -| Grade | Release Stage | Stability Posture | Meaning | -|-------|---------------|--------------------------|------------------------------------------| -| X | — | — | Not assessed | -| F | — | — | Reject / deprecate / delegate | -| E | Pre-alpha | Unstable | Needs redesign or major work | -| D | Alpha | Unstable | Functional but incomplete or inconsistent | -| C | Alpha | Stable in home context | Self-validated in the home context | -| B | Beta | Stable for broad trial | Broadly validated across diverse targets | -| A | Stable | Stable | Field-proven with real-world feedback | - -**Release candidate (RC) is project-level, not component-level.** RC is the -integration phase between B and A, when release-path components already meet -their minimum thresholds and the project-wide audit is nearly closed. CRG does -not assign a distinct component grade for RC because RC is about coordinated -release readiness, not a new kind of component evidence. - -This also means there is no endorsed `beta-unstable` badge in CRG. If the -component is not yet stable enough for broad external trial, keep it in alpha. - -### 5.1. Publication Mapping - -- **Below B:** Do not publish implementation-facing work as if it were ready - for community reliance. -- **B and above:** Suitable for public release notes, whitepapers, talks, and - submissions that describe working software, provided the claims match the - evidence and any remaining assumptions are explicit. -- **Exception for abstract work:** Earlier publication is acceptable for - theory, design, position, or exploratory work if it is explicit that the - implementation is incomplete, unvalidated, or still conjectural. - ---- - -## 6. Assessment Guidelines - -### 6.1. Core Principles - -**Principle 1: Assess components, not projects.** A project is a collection of -components. Each component gets its own grade. A project with ten A-grade -components and one F-grade component is not an A-grade project — it is a -project with a clear candidate for deprecation. - -**Principle 2: Evidence over intuition.** Every grade above X requires -evidence. "I think it works" is not evidence. "I ran it on X and here is -what happened" is evidence. The evidence bar rises with each grade. - -**Principle 3: Grades are earned and can be lost.** A component at grade A -can be demoted if it regresses, if external feedback reveals harm, or if the -ecosystem shifts and an alternative becomes clearly superior. Grades are not -permanent awards. - -**Principle 4: Honest assessment over aspirational grading.** Grade the -component as it is today, not as you hope it will be next week. A component -honestly graded D is more valuable than one dishonestly graded B, because the -honest grade tells you where to focus effort. - -**Principle 5: Long alpha and beta phases are acceptable.** If alpha means -hard internal dogfooding and beta means genuine external validation, both -stages may last a long time. That is a sign of discipline, not drift. - -**Principle 6: Earlier structure, earlier scrutiny.** CRG v2 deliberately -pulls repository discipline and navigability forward: D requires RSR -compliance or equivalent, and C requires deep annotation instead of treating -those as optional polish. - -**Principle 7: Challenge is welcome.** If practitioners from software -engineering, QA, formal methods, or mathematics think this standard is still -too weak, they should say why. A release gate earns trust by surviving -critique, not by avoiding it. - -### 6.2. Assessment Checklist - -When grading a component, answer these questions in order: - -1. **Has it been tested at all?** (No → X) -2. **Does it cause harm, waste resources, or duplicate something better?** (Yes → F) -3. **Does it do something, however slight?** (Barely → E) -4. **Does it work on some things but not others?** (Partial → D) -5. **Is the repository auditable enough to deserve D at all?** (RSR-compliant or equivalent; Immaculate Guide compliant for hyperpolymath projects) -6. **Does it work reliably on our own project, and is it deeply annotated?** (Dogfooded → C) -7. **Has it been tested on 6+ diverse external targets?** (Broad → B) -8. **Do external users confirm it works and is useful?** (Field-proven → A) - -### 6.3. When to Assess - -- **Before any release:** All components included in the release MUST be - graded. -- **After significant changes:** If a component is substantially rewritten, - re-assess from X (unless the rewrite preserved all existing test evidence). -- **Periodically:** At least once per release cycle, review all grades for - staleness. - -### 6.4. Recording Assessments - -Assessments SHALL be recorded in a durable, version-controlled location. -Recommended locations (in order of preference): - -1. A `READINESS.md` file in the project root. -2. A section in the project's `.machine_readable/STATE.scm` file. -3. Inline in the component's own documentation. - -### 6.5. Communicating Grades Externally - -When communicating grades to users: - -- **A and B:** Safe to advertise. These grades have external evidence. -- **C:** Appropriate for `alpha-stable` documentation. Be clear that - validation is strong in the home context but not yet external. -- **B:** Appropriate for `beta-stable` documentation. Be clear that external - breadth exists, but field-proof is still being earned. -- **D:** Appropriate for pre-alpha or experimental documentation. Be explicit - about known gaps. -- **E, F, X:** Internal only. Do not ship components at these grades unless - clearly marked as experimental or deprecated. - -For papers, whitepapers, and submission-facing prose, the same honesty rule -applies. If the implementation evidence is below B, either do not publish it -as implementation work or present it as abstract/provisional work only. - ---- - -## 7. Grade Transitions - -### 7.1. Promotion Criteria - -| From | To | What Is Needed | -|------|----|-----------------------------------------------------------------| -| X | E | Run at least one test. Document what happened. | -| X | F | Evaluate and determine the component is harmful or wasteful. | -| E | D | Fix the most critical failures. Document the scope. | -| D | C | Dogfood it hard in the home context. Fix what breaks. Add deep code and folder annotation. | -| C | B | Release beyond the home repo. Test on 6+ diverse external targets. Fix what breaks. | -| B | A | Ship it. Collect external feedback. Demonstrate no harm. | - -**Skipping grades:** A component MAY skip grades if the evidence supports it. -A brand-new component that is immediately dogfooded and works can go straight -from X to C. A component tested on 10 external targets before any internal -use could go from X to B. The grades describe evidence thresholds, not -mandatory sequential steps. - -### 7.2. Demotion Criteria - -| From | To | When | -|------|----|------------------------------------------------------------------| -| A | B | External feedback dries up or reveals the component is no longer | -| | | useful in the field. No active external users remain. | -| A | F | External feedback reveals the component causes harm. | -| B | C | Broad validation targets reveal failures that are not fixed. | -| C | D | The home context changes and the component no longer works | -| | | reliably in it. | -| C | F | Dogfooding reveals the component is a net negative. | -| D | E | The scope narrows so far that the component barely does anything.| -| Any | F | A better external alternative emerges and maintaining this | -| | | component is now pure opportunity cost. | - -**Demotion is not punishment.** It is an honest reassessment. A component -demoted from B to C is a component that needs more diverse testing, not a -component that has failed. - ---- - -## 8. Template Assessment Table - -Projects adopting CRG SHOULD include an assessment table. The following -templates may be copied and adapted. - -### 8.1. Compact Table - -```markdown -## Component Readiness Assessment - -| Component | Grade | Release Stage | Evidence Summary | Last Assessed | -|---------------------|-------|---------------|--------------------------------------|---------------| -| `example-command` | C | Alpha-stable | Dogfooded in CI since 2026-01. | 2026-02-28 | -| `parse-module` | D | Alpha-unstable| Works on JSON/YAML, fails on TOML. | 2026-02-28 | -| `export-feature` | X | — | Not yet tested. | 2026-02-28 | -| `legacy-formatter` | F | — | prettier does this better; removing. | 2026-02-28 | -``` - -### 8.2. Extended Template (with promotion path) - -```markdown -## Component Readiness Assessment (Extended) - -### `example-command` - -- **Grade:** C (`alpha-stable`) -- **Last assessed:** 2026-03-30 -- **Evidence:** Used in our own CI pipeline since 2026-01-15. No failures in - home context. 47 successful runs logged. -- **Annotation status:** `src/`, `tests/`, and integration boundaries all have - orientation notes and declared critical paths. -- **Known limitations:** Only tested on Linux x86_64. No macOS or ARM testing. -- **Promotion path to B:** Release and test on 6 diverse external projects. Candidates: - project-alpha (Rust, large), project-beta (Python, small), project-gamma - (mixed monorepo), project-delta (embedded C), project-epsilon (Gleam/BEAM), - project-zeta (legacy Java). -- **Demotion risk:** Low. Home context is stable. -``` - -### 8.3. Guile Scheme Format (for STATE.scm integration) - -```scheme -(component-readiness - (version "2.0") - (assessed "2026-03-30") - (components - (component - (name "example-command") - (grade C) - (release-stage "alpha") - (stability-posture "stable-in-home-context") - (evidence "Dogfooded in CI since 2026-01. 47 successful runs.") - (annotation-status "Deep code and folder annotation present.") - (promotion-path "Release and test on 6+ diverse external projects")) - (component - (name "parse-module") - (grade D) - (release-stage "alpha") - (stability-posture "unstable") - (evidence "Works on JSON/YAML, fails on TOML.") - (promotion-path "Fix TOML parsing, then dogfood")))) -``` - ---- - -## 9. Informative Notes - -### 9.1. Relationship to Semver - -CRG is orthogonal to semantic versioning. Semver tracks API compatibility. -CRG tracks quality and validation evidence. A component can be at semver -3.0.0 and grade D (if it has never been broadly validated), or at semver -0.1.0 and grade A (if it shipped early and accumulated real-world feedback). - -### 9.2. Third-Party Dependencies - -This scheme is for components you maintain. You SHOULD NOT grade third-party -dependencies themselves. However, you MAY assess your *integration* with a -third-party dependency — not the dependency itself, but how well your code -uses it. - -### 9.3. Grade Permanence - -No grade is permanent. Grade F is not a death sentence: a component graded F -because a better alternative existed can be re-evaluated if that alternative -disappears or degrades. A component graded F for causing harm can be -re-evaluated after a redesign. Grade F means "stop investing in this as it -currently stands," not "this idea is forever worthless." - -Grade A is not a trophy: a component can lose its A grade through regression, -neglect, or ecosystem changes that render it obsolete. - -### 9.4. Skipping from X to A - -In theory, a component can go from X directly to A if it ships immediately -and external feedback is positive. In practice, this almost never happens. -The grades are evidence thresholds, not sequential gates, but accumulating -A-level evidence without passing through intermediate stages is extremely -unlikely. - ---- - -## 10. Conformance - -A project conforms to CRG if: - -1. Each assessable component has an assigned grade from the set - {X, F, E, D, C, B, A}. -2. Each grade above X is supported by the evidence described in section 4. -3. Assessments are recorded in a version-controlled location (section 6.4). -4. Assessments are reviewed at least once per release cycle (section 6.3). -5. Release stages respect the minimum grade thresholds in section 5. -6. Components graded D or above satisfy RSR compliance or a documented - equivalent repository discipline. -6a. Components graded D or above in hyperpolymath projects satisfy the - Immaculate Guide (`immaculate-guide/IMMACULATE-GUIDE.adoc`) with - compliance evidence in `.machine_readable/STATE.a2ml`. -7. Components graded C or above have deep code and folder annotation. -8. Non-abstract publication claims about implementation-facing work are not - made below grade B. - ---- - -## 11. V2 Editorial Sign-Off and Evidential Basis - -This v2 revision is intentionally stricter than v1 and is signed off here as a -process-rigor upgrade, not as a claim that any particular repository already -meets it. - -Editorial sign-off: - -- **Reviewer:** Codex -- **Date:** 2026-03-30 -- **Scope:** The strictness and structure of the standard itself - -Evidential basis: - -- **Software engineering and secure development:** NIST SP 800-218 (SSDF) - supports explicit verification practices, defined review/release artefacts, - and repeatable gates rather than impressionistic readiness calls. -- **Research artefacts and reproducibility:** ACM Artifact Review and Badging - treats availability, functionality, and reproducibility as distinct evidence - classes, which supports our refusal to let public claims outrun artefacts. -- **Formal-methods practice:** CompCert shows the community value of - machine-checked implementation claims when correctness matters. -- **Mathematical and theorem-proving practice:** seL4's public verification - material emphasises explicit assumptions and continuous proof maintenance, - which supports assumption ledgers and the refusal to treat proof debt as - invisible. - -Reference URLs: - -- `https://csrc.nist.gov/pubs/sp/800/218/final` -- `https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-and-badging-current` -- `https://compcert.org/doc/` -- `https://sel4.systems/Verification/assumptions.html` - -This standard is open to challenge.

Rationale lines are the -original recommendations retained verbatim. - -| # | Decision | Rationale | Follow-up | -|---|----------|-----------|-----------| -| D1 | **Refactor** `DataExpr` in `crates/oo7-core/src` — split pure `DataExpr` from `DataFlow` control carrier. | Control-flow variants in a data-expression enum is a structural Harvard-invariant violation, not stylistic. `variance_schema` would codify the mistake. Refactor is 1–2 h in a well-factored crate; variance only justified if the merger is load-bearing on a benchmarked hot path (not the case). | **P1 task added** — 007-lang crate refactor. `just contractile-check` currently red on fresh clones; turns green after split. | -| D2 | **Canonical SCM-file location is `.machine_readable/6a2/`.** Root-level copies are drift and must be removed. | Global `CLAUDE.md`: *"CRITICAL: SCM files MUST be in `.machine_readable/` directory ONLY. Never create STATE.scm, META.scm, … in the repository root."* | **P1 task added** — diff root vs 6a2/ copies per repo; merge if divergent; `git rm` root. Estate-wide sweep. | -| D3 | **Wait on `just cartridge-install` in boj-server** until coord-mcp Tasks #33 + #34 ship. | Shared-state risk: `cartridges/local-coord-mcp/ffi/local_coord_ffi.zig` + `adapter/local_coord_adapter.zig` are owned by the sequential session for #33/#34 (Peer struct, ClientKind enum). Running install now risks conflicts on their live working tree. | **Gate locked** — 007-mcp-2 in P0 table blocks on #33+#34. | -| D4 | **Revert** modified `audits/canonical-proof-suite/` + `proofs/canonical-proof-suite/` in 007-lang. | They are `just canonical-proof-suite` probe-timing artefacts, not session scope. The parallel session itself flagged them as non-scope. Committing conflates measurement noise with substantive proof state.

The tools were "`deployed`" but never running. +*Root cause*: repos were cloned from rsr-template-repo without running +the init recipe. +. *Silent failure is worse than loud failure.* The +`+continue-on-error: true+` + graceful-skip pattern means broken tools +don’t surface. The dogfood-gate now makes warnings visible in PR +summaries. +. *k9iser requires per-repo manifests.* Can’t run blind across the +estate. Each repo needs a customized k9iser.toml describing its specific +config files and constraints.

Now deployed to ~150 repos. +. *Rust CI was completely absent (was).* 58 Rust repos had no cargo +build/test in CI. Now fixed estate-wide. +. *Protected branch repos need PRs, not direct pushes.* typed-wasm, +grim-repo, PolyglotFormalisms.jl, vql-ut, palimpsest-plasma, ephapax all +blocked direct push. PRs created 2026-04-04. +. *idaptik pre-commit hook had false-positive patterns.* +`+detect-private-key+` in pre-commit config matched its own rule name; +`+SECRET_KEY_BASE+` in k9iser policy templates; `+makeWithApiKey+` in +test fixtures.

Lessons Learned (2026-04-04) - -1. **Template deployment without `just init` is the #1 dogfooding blocker.** 93 repos had `{{OWNER}}` placeholders that silently disabled Hypatia and panic-attack. The tools were "deployed" but never running. **Root cause**: repos were cloned from rsr-template-repo without running the init recipe. - -2. **Silent failure is worse than loud failure.** The `continue-on-error: true` + graceful-skip pattern means broken tools don't surface. The dogfood-gate now makes warnings visible in PR summaries. - -3. **k9iser requires per-repo manifests.** Can't run blind across the estate. Each repo needs a customized k9iser.toml describing its specific config files and constraints.

Now deployed to ~150 repos. - -8. **Rust CI was completely absent (was).** 58 Rust repos had no cargo build/test in CI. Now fixed estate-wide. - -9. **Protected branch repos need PRs, not direct pushes.** typed-wasm, grim-repo, PolyglotFormalisms.jl, vql-ut, palimpsest-plasma, ephapax all blocked direct push.

Switched to SSH. - -12. **Groove port table had 4 errors across 3 files.** Idris2 ABI, Zig FFI, and Ephapax all had different (wrong) ports for burble, verisimdb, panll, echidna.
