Public concepts

Architecture, as far as it should be public.

Civ is one kind of thing: an organization that can contain people, agents, and other organizations. Work moves through workflows. Policy decides what may happen. Execution is what you can see.

Execution Layer

Humans and agents are first-class participants. Policy sits above them. Workflows carry events. Execution is accountable. The rest stays inside the organization.

Recursive organizations

A Civ can contain child Civs of the same kind. Strategy, operations, and a working group are the same shape at different depths.

Shared rules

Policy says which events may exist, who may emit them, and when a human must approve. Agents do not improvise past that line.

Workflow as graph

Work is a graph of events between people and agents. You can see who acted, what followed, and where a person still has to sign.

Governed change

The organization can propose to change itself. A person approves. The record stays with the organization. That is evolution with alignment.
