Corrigibility Assessment

Evaluate infrastructure against five structural tests derived from cybernetics (Ashby), commons governance (Ostrom), and free software (Stallman). A system is corrigible only if ALL five tests pass.

When to Apply

Reference these guidelines when:

• Assessing DPI systems (identity, payments, data exchange, registries)
• Evaluating EPI systems (AI/ML in public services)
• Creating an audit.json assessment document
• Verifying operator claims in infrastructure.json
• Analyzing layer-by-layer corrigibility
