CARE vNEXT206
Complete CARE Consolidation / Canonical Pack Integration Integrity Lock
Date: 2026-04-28

ZENODO PUBLIC MINIMAL LOCKED RELEASE

Purpose:
This public minimal release consolidates the current CARE baseline through vNEXT205 and integrates CARE Canonical Pack v1.0 as a dated, citable artifact surface.

This release introduces no new conceptual expansion beyond vNEXT205 + Canonical Pack v1.0.

Core CARE line:
CARE is an execution-boundary governance architecture where only a valid, action-bound, execution-time bind may allow consequence to become system reality.

Stable public framing:
CARE does not govern reality. CARE governs what the system is permitted to recognize, bind, and realize as consequence.

Bound-only reality:
Only bound effects count as system reality.

Non-claim boundary:
CARE does not claim ownership of the principle ‘no consequence without valid bind.’ CARE defines the execution-boundary condition under which that principle becomes non-bypassable.

Governance line:
Governance is not what defines the rules. Governance is what determines whether rules can produce consequence.

Legitimacy separation:
CARE does not govern how legitimacy is defined. CARE governs whether legitimacy can produce consequence.

Core test:
Can any consequence occur without passing a valid execution-time bind?

Final invariant:
No substrate authority → no proof authority → no bind sufficiency → no admissibility → no bind → no recognized system reality → no effect.
