IF.GOV directory (separation-of-duties)

This directory is the governance charter layer for InfraFabric.

Purpose:

• reduce concept drift / sprawl by defining who does what
• make governance primitives legible to non-specialists
• provide stable names for cross-app integration (CLI/API)

Design framing: InfraFabric is not inventing “government”. It is adapting separation-of-duties patterns inspired by US/CA/EU governance structures to autonomous systems.

Components

• TRIAGE.md — IF.GOV.TRIAGE
• PANEL.md — IF.GOV.PANEL + IF.GOV.PANEL.EXTENDED
• QUESTIONS.md — IF.GOV.QUESTIONS
• WITNESS.md — IF.GOV.WITNESS

Interface contract (v1)

Each charter specifies:

• responsibilities (what it must do)
• non-responsibilities (what it must not do)
• inputs/outputs
• audit artifacts required under IF.AUDIT.TRAIL / IF.TTT

Naming

• Canonical naming is defined in ../IF_NAMING_REGISTRY.yaml.
• Legacy names remain valid as aliases during transition.
