> **Core invariant:** machine state does not gain truth, authority, scope, currentness, or admissibility merely because it was stored, copied, summarized, replayed, or transmitted.

## Role in Open Institutional Computation

**Category:** Open Institutional Computation
**This component:** Provenance-preserving semantic state substrate — stable identity, explicit context, provenance, lifecycle and dependency structure for persistent machine state
**Upstream:** Whatever produced the stored state, including any institutional authority or control state established elsewhere; RAED preserves what it is given and does not upgrade it
**Downstream:** Systems that must decide what a stored object is, where it came from, what it depends on, and whether an upstream change should invalidate or re-evaluate it
**Canonical category thesis:** https://github.com/veraxis-protocol/institutional-continuity/blob/main/THESIS.md

The core invariant above is a non-collapse rule of that field: storage, copying, summarization, replay and transmission are not sources of truth, authority, scope, currentness or admissibility. RAED preserves the distinction; it does not establish institutional authority, interpret governing sources, or perform institutional admission.

Architectural role does not imply production readiness; see `CLAIMS.md`, `LIMITATIONS.md` and `CONFORMANCE.md` for the exact demonstrated scope.

## Why RAED exists

A simple agent exchange is easy to picture:
