No silent authority inheritance
A claim that becomes useful in a new lane must still state who authorized it and what authority it carries.
Ecosystem architecture
A packet may move across lanes only when scope, source, authority state, and allowed use are explicitly carried forward.
Boundary principles
A claim that becomes useful in a new lane must still state who authorized it and what authority it carries.
Summaries can consolidate, but they cannot erase sources, transforms, or review states.
Execution-adjacent packets must name constraints, allowed use, expiry, and rollback expectations.
Plain-language explanations help readers. They do not become operational authority by implication.
Packet contract
The contract is intentionally conservative. It protects the packet from drift by preserving boundary fields across every transformation.
Names the review state and the kind of use allowed by the packet.
Wraps a lane transition with source, scope, constraints, and receiver expectations.
Preserves origins and transforms so downstream readers can inspect the path.

Claim drift guard
This local evaluator does not submit data. It demonstrates the default no-op posture when a packet lacks source, authority, or expiry.
