FAZON has published v1.0 of “A Verified Past Is Not Authority to Act Now.”
Bounded thesis: past evaluation, provenance, approval or reputation may remain relevant evidence. They do not, by themselves, establish current authority for a specific consequential action.
The record keeps four layers distinct:
Evidence — what supports a proposal.
Current authority / admission — what may proceed now.
Enforcement — what is actually allowed to reach side effects.
Post-action evidence — what occurred.
The public record is intentionally narrow. It does not claim certification, regulatory conformity, endorsement by cited authors, technical equivalence with cited work, or invention of pre-ex*****on authorization.

Permission before AI action becomes consequence.
