Factory governor for autonomous AI agent dispatch. Translates strategic intent into dispatch routing, manages authority tiers, and detects factory anomalies.
Named after Ockham Saneer from Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota — who ran the world's Humanist transportation network, routing resources through competing hive interests.
Part of the Demarch AI factory architecture:
Meadowsyn (UI) → Ockham (governor) → Clavain/Zaka/Alwe (execution)

ockham dispatch advise- Intent directives — theme-level budgets, not per-task commands
- Authority tiers — trust ratchet from shadow → supervised → autonomous
- Algedonic signals — pain/pleasure indicators that surface immediately
- Dispatch routing — synthesizes intent + authority + state into scoring weights
Ockham is an L2 OS component of Demarch, the autonomous software development agency platform.
