Legitimacy v1.0.0

The first tagged release of Legitimacy packages a machine-checked governance
kernel for agentic AI systems, a verified impossibility result for scarce
peer-relative allocation, and capability-scaling bounds that make the resulting
stability cliff explicit.

Highlights

  • A Lean 4 LegitimacyKernel with five explicit obligations:
    certifiability, observability, corrigibility, compositional safety, and
    non-vacuity.
  • A machine-checked forcing theorem for reachable scarce, structurally
    peer-relative decision stages.
  • A shared theorem carrying the forced sacrifice and capability cliff on the
    canonical claimant-interaction lift.
  • Executable Rust audits over graph fixtures extracted from agent-framework
    governance surfaces.
  • Reproducible verification and publication tooling, with zero sorry,
    admit, or first-party axiom in the Lean substrate.

Release assets

The release includes the two primary manuscripts and their verification
records:

  • 02-semantic-legitimacy-kernels.pdf
  • 03-impossibility-theorem.pdf
  • CONTENT-CHECKSUMS
  • BUILD-PROVENANCE.txt
  • GITHUB-RELEASE-SHA256SUMS

Paper 04, Capability Scaling, Spectral Stress, and Stability Cliffs, is
included as source in the repository. Papers 02–04 are being prepared for a
separate archival submission.
