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 (legacy: IF.BIAS)
PANEL.md — IF.GOV.PANEL + IF.GOV.PANEL.EXTENDED (legacy: IF.GUARD)
QUESTIONS.md — IF.GOV.QUESTIONS (legacy: IF.5W)
WITNESS.md — IF.GOV.WITNESS (legacy: IF.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.
