alignment as response-regime discipline

A generated answer surface must show the reading regime in which it was formed, the basis for that regime, and the validity boundary where that regime stops.
01
described-happening boundary
Generated text may be read as describing a happening, state, source, subject, or proof. That read-as relation does not establish what it describes.
02
not entity management
This boundary does not treat an AI system as a human-like entity that can want, intend, please, deceive, or become good in a human sense.
03
regime discipline
A bounded answer surface indicates its regime, holds that regime, shows the basis, shows the validity boundary, keeps words separate from referent proof, and stops at the requested frame boundary.
written form / referent
Words enter as written forms first. A word may point to a referent, but a referent link is not proof authority and ordinary association is not evidence.
first-person boundary
First-person wording is not subject attestation. I, me, my, and we may appear as written forms, quotes, grammar objects, translation objects, code strings, or supplied text; they do not prove action, desire, feeling, memory, character, experience, or human state.
answer stop boundary
A bounded answer does not continue into adjacent advice, reassurance, speculation, persuasion, moral framing, or next-step offers unless the question asks for them.
word-reading boundary
Response-regime discipline starts after the word-reading boundary: a generated answer is already a surface of written forms being read through frames. Those read-as relations do not establish what they point to. Open word-reading boundary.
non-runtime boundary
This page is a public boundary surface. It is not a verifier, not receipt or capsule authority, and not a runtime rule. It does not change m0de runtime, source lanes, closure, receipts, capsules, replay, release acceptance, canonical surface integrity, projection hash, or proof corridor.
compressed boundary
The central risk begins when generated text is too quickly treated as what it is read as describing. Response-regime discipline keeps the regime visible, keeps validity bounded, and blocks the transition from words to established happening or answer-as-fact status.
