SIF Inspector
SIF Inspector performs output structural verification.
Research branch
SIF Governance
SIF Governance is the governing-state assurance branch of the broader SIF research programme. It asks whether what currently governs still has valid support.
Assurance distinction
Two distinct questions
SIF Governance
SIF Governance asks whether what currently governs still has valid support.
Research status
Active research development
SIF Governance is a separate governing-state assurance research direction: it checks how changes to governing sources, evidence, relations and authority affect what can still be supported. Unlike SIF Inspector, it does not inspect the structure of an existing translation.
Already public: a frozen Governance evidence replay demonstrates recorded bounded outcomes; the homepage evidence snapshot reports selected R597/3 real-metrology results. The R597/3 counts are attributed to an internal research summary, not independently reproduced assertion-by-assertion for this website.
Not publicly released here: full internal methods, source/obligation ledgers, primary evaluation artifacts and ongoing case research. The public replay is not a live research runtime or evidence of universal transfer.
Source-defined assurance mechanism
From governing source to inspectable consequence
Nine steps already documented in the frozen public demonstration. This diagram is explanatory, not new experimental evidence.

An OPEN state does not by itself establish an invalid dependency or authorise a lifecycle action. Outcomes remain tied to the admitted source and declared scope.

SIF Governance is an active research direction. A frozen public demonstration presents recorded, scope-bounded results from earlier evaluations. Further methodological development and expert validation are ongoing.
