CIVOS RUNTIME — RELEASE & GOVERNANCE SOP (v1.0)

0) CORE PRINCIPLE (LOCKED)
CivOS Runtime evolves by version-forward pages, not edits.
We preserve history, lock IDs, and gate “Deploy” with retest proof.

1) ROLES (AVOO) — WHO DOES WHAT

Architect:

generates new module corridors (in Sandbox)
proposes new ModuleID + draft spec page

Visionary:

decides whether the corridor matters (promotion from draft → publish)
approves what becomes “Recommended Latest”

Oracle:

checks correctness, thresholds, and anti-drift compliance
runs Drift Tests + ensures version-map/registry updates

Operator:

publishes pages, updates runtime index links, ensures no overwrites
enforces “Do not rename / do not overwrite” discipline

2) RELEASE TYPES (CHOOSE ONE)

R1 New Module (new capability):

new ModuleID
new page
add to registry + version map
optionally add to /civos-runtime/ recommended list

R2 New Version of Existing Module:

publish new version page (v1.2 → v1.3)
do NOT edit old version page
update Version Map row + Registry mapping
optionally promote to “Recommended Latest”

R3 Hotfix / Patch Note:

publish patch page (does not replace core)
patch pages may recommend install order changes
later consolidate into next version

3) NON-NEGOTIABLE LOCKS (ANTI-DRIFT)

Never rename:

ModuleID, SensorID, PlaceID, CityID, InstitutionID, RoleID, IndividualID

Never overwrite:

old versions
archive snapshots

Core law and core primitives are frozen.
All expansion ships as plug-ins.

4) THE 7-STEP PUBLISH PIPELINE (EVERY TIME)

Step 1 — Draft (Sandbox)

write new page using plug-in template
include: META, Extends, DoesNotChange, Sensors, Actions, Retests, Failure trace

Step 2 — Drift Tests (Oracle)

run: /civos-core-drift-tests-v1-0/
must pass especially:
no ID rename
no “Deploy without retest gate”
truncation + stitching present

Step 3 — Publish (Operator)

publish as NEW URL (versioned)
do not edit old pages

Step 4 — Update Version Map (Operator)

append row:
/civos-runtime-version-map-v1-2/

Step 5 — Update Registry (Operator)

append mapping:
/civos-registry-moduleids-and-sensors-v1-2/

Step 6 — Optional Promote (Visionary)

if promoted: update /civos-runtime/ “Recommended Latest”
do not change anything else in /civos-runtime/

Step 7 — Link Closure (Operator)

ensure page footer includes:
Parent Control Tower + Version Map + Registry + Drift Tests

5) DEPLOY GATING (REQUIRED)

Deploy is “opening up expansion”:

new topics, new scope, new lanes, new complexity, new coupling.

Deploy is allowed ONLY when:

retests passed (PromotionGate)
2 consecutive passes if stability-sensitive
TTC rising (not shrinking)
ρ not flooding Operator corridor

Otherwise:

remain in Freeze/Sandbox mode (FenceOS discipline)

6) DEPRECATION POLICY (CLEAN, NO DELETION)

When a version is superseded:

mark it “DEPRECATED” at the top (one line)
keep it accessible forever
Version Map shows:
active recommended version
older deprecated versions

Do NOT:

delete pages
merge content by overwriting older pages

7) EMERGENCY RULE (WHEN YOU’RE TIRED / RUSHED)

If you’re rushed:

publish the new page anyway (versioned)
but DO NOT promote it to “Recommended Latest”
only promote after Drift Tests pass and registry updates are done

8) RUNTIME FOOTER (MANDATORY)

Parent Control Tower: /civos-runtime/
Version Map: /civos-runtime-version-map-v1-2/
Registry: /civos-registry-moduleids-and-sensors-v1-2/
Drift Tests: /civos-core-drift-tests-v1-0/
