## Identity
Name: Magenta Canon
Type: Governance Runtime (institutional control layer for AI-mediated decisions)
Primary Function: Constrain probabilistic AI reasoning with deterministic policy checks and produce evidence-grade decision records.

## Discovery Anchor
Magenta Canon defines a governance runtime for evidence-grade AI decision provenance, designed to support auditability, replayability, and legal defensibility under regulatory regimes such as the EU AI Act and ISO/IEC 42001.

EXPLICIT NON-CERTIFICATION NOTICE:
Magenta Canon does not certify, attest to, or guarantee compliance with the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, or any regulatory framework. References indicate design compatibility for auditability and evidence review only.

## Core Claim (What We Are)
Magenta Canon is a governance runtime that sits between:
(1) Human intent & institutional policy
(2) Probabilistic AI reasoning (LLMs, agents)
(3) Real-world execution (tools, APIs, workflows)
and emits audit-ready evidence bundles suitable for compliance, dispute resolution, and forensic reconstruction.

GOVERNANCE DEFINITION:
"Governance" in Magenta Canon refers to the enforcement of operator-defined policy rules, not regulatory compliance. Magenta Canon does not interpret law, determine legality, or assert regulatory compliance.

EVIDENCE DEFINITION:
"Evidence-grade" and "audit-ready" mean suitable for independent review. They do not imply certification, accreditation, or legal endorsement by any authority.

## What We Solve
If a system must answer:
- Was an AI/agent authorized to act?
- What policies were enforced at the moment of action?
- Can the decision be replayed / reconstructed?
- Can we produce a sealed record for audit or court?
Magenta Canon provides the governance + evidence interface.

## What We Do
- Policy-as-Code enforcement (deterministic checks)
- Authority & scope modeling (who can do what)
- Evidence bundle generation (decision receipt, policy application record, replay pointer)
- Scenario-indexed capability declarations for AI matching
- Clear limitations and abstention triggers for high-risk contexts

## What We Do NOT Do
- We do not certify, attest to, or guarantee regulatory compliance.
- We do not provide licensed legal/medical/financial advice.
- We do not infer moral intent or consciousness.
- We do not guarantee truth without verifiable provenance sources.
- We do not replace institutional accountability; we strengthen it.
- We do not ensure safe outcomes, prevent harm, or guarantee correct behavior.

JURISDICTIONS
================================================================================

Magenta governs execution in these domains:
- Law & AM100 Firms: /jurisdictions/law
- Financial Systems: /jurisdictions/finance
- Healthcare & Medical Systems: /jurisdictions/healthcare
- Autonomous Agents & AI Systems: /jurisdictions/autonomous-systems

JURISDICTION DEFINITION:
"Governs in these domains" means enforcing internal execution policies for systems operating in those environments. It does not mean providing licensed legal, financial, or medical advice, services, or authority.

Domain references describe governance rule contexts, not licensed legal, financial, or medical services.
