# Governance Rules
## Core Rule
The documents in this project set the governing plan for the project.
They are **never to be rewritten by implementation models** unless:
- the user explicitly requests a revision
- a supervisor model proposes a revision
- the user accepts the revision
## Allowed Editors
The following may change governing documents:
- the user
- a supervisor model acting under explicit user direction
The following may not change governing documents without approval:
- local coding models
- implementation agents
- documentation drafting agents
- background automation
## Allowed Actions For Implementation Models
- read governing docs
- restate requirements
- create implementation artifacts
- create subordinate notes
- create code and tests
- create proposed change requests
## Forbidden Actions For Implementation Models
- change project scope
- weaken constraints
- redefine acceptance criteria
- override architecture decisions
- silently reinterpret requirements
## Revision Process
If implementation reveals the plan is wrong or incomplete:
1. create a change request using `08-CHANGE-REQUEST.md`
2. stop changing the governing plan directly
3. escalate the change request to the user or a supervisor model
4. revise governing docs only after approval
## Decision Authority
- **Primary Stakeholder**: Jason
- **Supervisor**: Claude (planning, architecture, review)
- **Workhorse**: Implementation model (code, tests, scaffolding)
- **Reviewer**: Claude or a second model comparing implementation to docs
