Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Distinguishing features Derived, awaiting review

  • An instance references an artifact version
  • An observation has a time and a source
  • An address change does not necessarily change identity

What robots and AI may and may not do Derived, awaiting review

Must not

  • Negative case: An IP address is used as the sole permanent identifier of a server.

Note: Negative case of the research brief, not yet a rule for agents.

Open questions

  • Установить границу и решение reuse/extend/new по действующим спецификациям.
  • Подтвердить semantic crosswalk, права и source mastership.
  • Выбрать immutable refs; провести проверки fixtures до заявления о публикационной готовности.
