Ledger above ego
Important decisions, claims, changes, and failures should leave inspectable receipts.

These principles are not marketing promises. They are design constraints used to judge what belongs in the portal and how it should behave.
Working constitution
Every project may express these principles differently, but none should quietly contradict them.
Important decisions, claims, changes, and failures should leave inspectable receipts.
Computational Collaborators may assist, propose, model, and challenge. They do not silently acquire human mandate.
A system should not increase scope, collect more information, or deepen dependency without a clear reason and meaningful choice.
Imagination is welcomed. Research claims, operational demonstrations, creative works, and hypotheses remain visibly distinct.
People should be able to pause, leave, export, refuse, or choose a quieter path without punishment.
When a system fails, the priority is containment, explanation, restoration, and learning—not defending appearances.
Publication boundary
A project room does not prove that the project is finished, safe for deployment, commercially available, or scientifically validated.
Generated diagrams, field cards, and conceptual models are not substitutes for prototypes, measurements, independent review, or regulatory approval.
Wellness and reflective experiences are not medical diagnosis, treatment, crisis care, or a replacement for qualified human support.
Public ledger entries are curated continuity receipts, not production telemetry or a cryptographic guarantee unless a room explicitly demonstrates those properties.
