Authority Governance (Layer 3)

Definition

Adjacent governance regime that constrains executable authority when interpretive outputs become action-bearing inputs.

Layer 3 is not the next layer of open-web interpretive governance. It is the adjacent regime that becomes relevant when interpretation no longer only answers, but authorizes or triggers an action.

EAC constrains interpretation. Q-Layer constrains response legitimacy. Layer 3 constrains executable authority.
