# Standards Conformance Matrix

## 1. Conformance Matrix

| Standard Target | Internal Substrate | Current Status | Missing Artifact |
|-----------------|--------------------|----------------|------------------|
| **ISO 26262** | Q16.16, deterministic replay, O-AMMR basis | Architecture-aligned | Safety case, HARA, FMEA, tool qualification |
| **W3C DID/VC** | O-AMMR receipts, GCCL-Rep transition atoms | Schema-ready | DID method, VC schema, signature suite |
| **MPEG-G** | Genome18, NUVMAP address projection | Adapter-ready | MPEG-G mapping, test vectors |
| **Supply-chain attestation** | O-AMMR, KOT, Warden | Strong internal fit | SLSA/in-toto/CycloneDX bindings |
| **Reproducible computation** | GCCL-Rep, AVMR, O-AMMR, fixed-point core | Strong internal fit | Canonical replay harness |

## 2. Audit Stance Definitions

We define the stack’s audit stance as follows:

- **Architecture-aligned**: Internal models are designed with standard-compatible constraints (e.g., determinism) but lack formal mapping.
- **Adapter-ready**: Internal structures can be exposed through a standard interface with minimal logic.
- **Schema-ready**: Data shapes and transition semantics are stable enough for formal schema definition.
- **Conformance-tested**: Automated test suites verify parity against standard test vectors.
- **Externally certified**: Verified by an independent third-party auditor for the specified standard.

## 3. Standards-Native Interoperability Claim

The Sovereign Research Stack is standards-native in the sense that its core abstractions are designed around externally auditable properties: deterministic arithmetic, replayable state transitions, verifiable receipts, bounded resource accounting, and projection-local validation.

This architecture ensures that global agreement occurs on the **transition witness** (GCCL-Rep), not on the full internal cognitive geometry of any individual node.
