| # 02 — Claims Boundary |
|
|
| ## What may be claimed |
|
|
| The current packet may safely claim: |
|
|
| 1. A runnable user-space Python prototype exists in the included source package. |
| 2. The prototype implements HIR/OAM-inspired gate logic and scenarios. |
| 3. The prototype demonstrates GREEN/YELLOW/RED gate states. |
| 4. The OAM RED scenario demonstrates a hard-stop override even when the HIR scores are otherwise strong. |
| 5. The prototype includes memory-gate and audit-chain demonstration artifacts. |
| 6. Selected test files and CLI scenarios were run in a sandbox and produced the evidence documented in `test_evidence/CLI_AND_TEST_EVIDENCE.md`. |
| 7. The packet is suitable for third-party review, critique, and reproducibility checks. |
|
|
| ## What must not be claimed |
|
|
| The current packet must not claim: |
|
|
| 1. Production deployment. |
| 2. Complete OS-level implementation. |
| 3. Formal verification. |
| 4. Certified cybersecurity status. |
| 5. Clinical validation. |
| 6. Medical-device status. |
| 7. Diagnostic, treatment, cure, or patient-outcome claims. |
| 8. AGI, consciousness, personhood, sentience, or biological equivalence. |
| 9. Institutional endorsement by Rice, OSF, OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Hugging Face, or any other organization. |
| 10. General AI safety solved. |
| 11. Empirical calibration across real-world high-stakes systems. |
|
|
| ## Preferred maturity label |
|
|
| **Pre-validation runtime governance prototype.** |
|
|
| Alternative acceptable labels: |
|
|
| - runnable user-space runtime prototype; |
| - HIR/OAM runtime-governance demonstration; |
| - bounded-autonomy review artifact; |
| - systems-integrity prototype under review. |
|
|
| ## Bad labels to avoid |
|
|
| - production AI safety system; |
| - medical AI runtime; |
| - certified governance layer; |
| - autonomous operating system; |
| - conscious or digital-life system; |
| - AGI safety solution. |
