Explicit authority
SFC compiles and qualifies; Govern authorizes; A4Layer executes; SAP decides runtime truth.
SAFETY / TRUST
CAPELLA’s trust position comes from explicit authority boundaries, safe stops and evidence-aware public claims.
SFC compiles and qualifies; Govern authorizes; A4Layer executes; SAP decides runtime truth.
Verified, demonstrated, experimental, roadmap and decision statements remain visibly distinct.
Hash-bound approval remains part of the supported SAP-write path.
Observatory records engineering evidence; OpenTelemetry remains an optional, non-authoritative projection.

PUBLIC CLAIM LANGUAGE
Every managed public record must carry one approved classification. The label states whether the record is evidence-backed, demonstrated in a bounded scope, experimental, planned, or an architectural decision.
Supported by current authoritative evidence.
Observed successfully in a stated, bounded scenario.
Observed in bounded experimentation, not general capability.
Planned direction, not present capability.
A recorded architectural or governance choice, not a capability claim.
