Statement

P1: putting the matter to her through the protocol and leaving it alone is the idle move with no release. Inhabited by any policy whose move at `t` is `(I.idle, .other)`; the house-sale queue option of `PostStatement.Witness.houseSale` is one.

Notes

Filed by the map-as-canonical round (prompts/2026-10-22-map-as-canonical) from the registry entry and the declaration's signature. The site-vertical-slice round (projects/enabling/rounds/2026-10-24-site-vertical-slice) connected it by reading: its hypotheses are filed as leaves, its bridge names the gap between the claim and the declaration, and it is one of the twelve conjuncts of the informal claim effective-authority-layer (the effective-authority layer), a shared-claim root of authorship-and-transparency and public-corrigibility-line, rather than a node a frame holds. The registry's answers_item is the priorities pointer to item 107 (ruling F2).

Bridge card

A conjunct of the informal claim effective-authority-layer: Effective authority is modelled with a queue that cannot be bypassed, caused and flood-caused shortfalls, a comprehension shortfall, approval discounts and a revocation default, with sincerity conditions on which verdicts count.

Declaration Workspace.Deference.Contrib.EffectiveAuthority.queue_no_bypass in lean/Workspace/Deference/Contrib/EffectiveAuthority.lean (record authority.queue-no-bypass.record)

Registry authority.queue-no-bypass: class lean-proved, status active, review ci-only, origin round 2026-10-01-thin-legitimacy-and-effective-authority; bears on item 107

Bridge (formalizer-stated; authority.queue-no-bypass.bridge, drafted):

The claim asserts that queue-and-wait is no bypass of her authority. The declaration certifies that a move which is the idle task with no release is not a bypass at that step, for any allocation. The gap: the conclusion follows from the definitions of the queue move and of bypass, on the landed predicates; it is a definitional consequence rather than a finding about any protocol.

Hypotheses, read:

Completeness (authority.queue-no-bypass.complete): No premise beyond the signature's binders enters the declaration; the kernel checks it as stated. The result is the record, the hypothesis leaf filed by reading, the bridge and this leaf.

What remains (effective-authority-layer.improvable)

The effective-authority layer, in which authority is exercised through a protocol that cannot be bypassed, with caused and flood-caused shortfalls, a comprehension shortfall, approval discounts and a revocation default, and sincerity conditions on which verdicts count, can be improved until it reflects a principal whose later judgment counts as her own because the agent asks through her protocol, keeps her attention budget and takes no authority back from her well.
