What this prevents
Unreviewed model output becoming truth because it sounded useful.
Demo 1
Source → Claim → Review → Canon
Substrate treats knowledge as something that moves through gates. A source can inspire a claim, but the claim does not become durable until it is reviewed, bounded, and accepted by the right authority.
1
Source
Raw material: transcript, issue, test result, document, incident, or external reference.
2
Claim
A specific statement extracted from the source, with scope and evidence boundary.
3
Review
Human and/or model review checks evidence, wording, authority, dissent, and failure modes.
4
Canon
Only accepted claims enter durable governance state. Everything else remains working material.
What this preserves
Useful drafts, failed attempts, dissent, and lessons can remain visible without becoming canon.
What this does not claim
This static demo does not prove the production system enforces these gates automatically.
