The generic lifecycle is Intent → Verify → Authorize → Execute → Observe → Record. Each consequential request should bind actor, action, resource, artifact revision and narrowly scoped permission. Immutable proposals are not approvals; policy decisions are not enforcement; observation is not authorization.
Generic interfaces are proposed for SpecRevision, ChangeProposal, PolicyDecision, ApprovalStatement, ExecutionLease, ExecutionReceipt and TaskCheckpoint. These contracts are planned, not currently exposed as a production service. Strong claims require independently administered resource enforcement and negative replay/mismatch tests.
