Notice, Interpret, Shape, Govern

This consolidation note gathers the PUTMAN / Spanda paper sequence into a single architecture statement centered on weak-signal handling and promotion control. It does not introduce a new theory, subsystem, product, or domain application. Instead, it identifies the shared pattern across the work: weak, noisy, partial, or ambiguous signals may influence bounded attention and response before they are allowed to harden into durable memory, authority, escalation, or action.

The note presents the architecture as a four-stage stack: Notice → Interpret → Shape → Govern. It includes a minimal event state machine, transition triggers, a promotion predicate template, a minimal data model, a worked grid anomaly triage example, and a short implementation checklist. The purpose is to make the broader PUTMAN / Spanda sequence legible as a compact boundary-discipline architecture: bounded findings may become candidate meanings, candidate meanings may shape reversible short-horizon behavior, and stronger consequence requires support, provenance, stability, and auditable governance.

This note serves as a capstone for the bridge-paper sequence rather than as an additional bridge paper.
