Runtime Signed Adaptation Artifacts vs Training-Time Mutation Adaptation artifacts (LoRA, RAG, prompts, MoE) loaded at runtime under credentialed admissibility — distinct from training-time mutation governance, addressing the agent-platform skill marketplace.
Consumer-Side Sandbox Pre-Activation Certification Each consumer runs every artifact through a sandbox evaluation against its own admissibility policy before activation; the authoring authority signs what an artifact is, the consuming authority.
Admissibility Gate as Skill Router At inference, the same composite admissibility evaluator that gates execution routes the request across active skills with weighted contribution — unifying skill selection and inference routing into.
The Always-Active Personal Layer Carve-Out Every consumer maintains an always-active personal layer exempt from third-party de-weighting; even fully-admitted external skills cannot dominate or override the consumer's sovereign intent.
Cascade Deactivation Through Dependency Chains Each artifact declares dependencies; revocation cascades transitively, with the cascade itself recorded in lineage for audit and replacement-routing.
Cross-Model Skill Portability Across Base-Model Substitutions Artifact metadata declares compatibility scope; consumers migrating between base models retain compatible artifacts and replace incompatible ones without re-authoring, eliminating the lock-in pattern.
Decentralized Mesh Distribution of Skill Artifacts Artifacts distribute through the governed mesh with no central marketplace operator; expeditionary, defense, and disconnected operations can pre-stage credentialed artifacts and reconcile after.

Spatial Inference-Time Skill Routing Inference-time skill selection is gated by spatial context — the operating unit's location, observed environment, and peer-unit attestations modulate which skills are admissible at this inference.
Personal Layer Modulation at Inference The always-active personal layer modulates every inference — even when external skills are admitted, the consumer's sovereign personal layer maintains intent fidelity through the full inference.

Verification-Feedback Inference-Function Evolution Each behavior-inferred intent is paired with a temporal commitment; predictions are verified after the window expires, producing closed-loop falsifiability that drives inference-function evolution.
Risk vs Hostility Profile Bifurcation Competence-based risk (inattention, fatigue, skill limits) is structurally separated from intent-based hostility (deliberate harm), preventing the actuarial conflation that current usage telematics.
Due-Process Credentialing for Adverse Classifications Hostility classification requires regulator- or judicially-credentialed criteria with audit-grade lineage and structural standing for the classified party to challenge — putting hostility on the same.
Counter-Action Selection Under Hostility Classification Hostility classification produces a permissive admissibility envelope rather than automatic counter-attack; counter-action selection runs through composite admissibility just like any other actuation.
