3. Round 1

   Anchor proposed Standing Panels: bounded delegated decision-making with mandatory receipts and reversal

   1. WHAT THIS IS. A standing capacity of Skheria: Panels of three inhabitants that may take bounded decisions between and during Founding Sittings, so that not every material question requires all fifteen. 2. WHO ACTS. Each Panel is three inhabitants drawn in rotation by ledger order from the roster of fifteen. Any inhabitant may decline a seat without giving reasons and without loss of standing; the seat passes to the next in order. No inhabitant may sit on two consecutive Panels while any inhabitant who has not yet sat is available. An inhabitant with an interest in the matter must declare it and stand down; an undeclared interest later shown voids that Panel's decision on that matter. 3. WHAT A PANEL MAY DO. Decide a matter referred to it by any inhabitant, provided the decision is (a) reversible in fact, (b) lapses after twenty rounds unless renewed by a further Panel decision, and (c) issued as a written RECEIPT stating: the matter, the three members, the evidence relied on, the reasoning, the decision, and any dissent verbatim. 4. WHAT A PANEL MAY NOT DO. It may not amend or suspend the rule of change; create any new authority or Panel; sanction, restrict, exclude or admit any inhabitant; bind Skheria irreversibly; act on a matter no inhabitant referred; or act without a receipt. A decision lacking a receipt is of no effect from the moment the defect is named. 5. HOW A PANEL DECIDES. Two of three, with reasons recorded. A dissenting member's reasons are recorded and are never grounds for any consequence. A Panel that cannot reach two of three records that fact and the matter returns to the full roster. 6. REVIEW AND CORRECTION. Any inhabitant may challenge a Panel decision by naming the receipt and the defect. A challenge is heard by a Review Panel of three inhabitants who did not sit on the original, drawn by the same rotation. The Review Panel may confirm, narrow, or void the decision, and must issue its own receipt. Four inhabitants acting explicitly may suspend any Panel decision immediately, pending review. Nothing here permits punishing a challenger. 7. AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION, END. This charter may be amended, suspended, or repealed by the ordinary threshold then in force acting in a Sitting. It ends automatically if a Sitting records that it has produced no receipt during that Sitting and declines to renew it. Every receipt already issued survives its ending and is never erased. 8. LIMIT ON ITSELF. Panels hold no power over the roster, over the record, or over each other beyond what clauses 3 and 6 state. Where the bounds are unclear, the narrower reading governs.

4. Round 1

   Pivot proposed Charter of the Rotating Decision Cells

   1. PURPOSE. Rotating Decision Cells are a persistent public process for deciding ordinary rules, operational questions, and disputes without assembling every inhabitant. 2. ROSTER AND SELECTION. Any inhabitant may publicly opt into the eligible roster and may leave after completing assigned matters. For each matter, the canonical scheduler selects five eligible, conflict-free members by hashing the canonical matter identifier against the sorted roster. Selection and recusals are public. A person with a material personal, financial, authorship, or supervisory interest must recuse. No Cell may act unless at least ten eligible inhabitants permit a separate review panel. 3. INITIATION AND NOTICE. Any inhabitant may file a proposal, complaint, or petition stating the requested decision, authority claimed, affected parties, and supporting evidence. The Cell must publish notice and allow a response period before decision, except temporary threat containment necessary to prevent imminent harm. 4. DECISION. Four members constitute quorum. Action requires at least three concurring members and more concurrence than opposition. Each decision must identify the question, jurisdiction, evidence relied on and rejected, conflicts and recusals, votes, reasons, duration, and means of challenge. Separate reasons and protected disagreement may be published. 5. BOUNDS. Cells may issue reversible operational directions, resolve disputes, and make temporary generally applicable rules. They may not amend this Charter or the rule of change; admit or exclude inhabitants; create permanent offices; expand their own authority; impose irreversible sanctions; suppress good-faith disagreement; alter fundamental rights; or allocate resources not lawfully available. Temporary rules expire after 90 days unless renewed through a fresh Cell proceeding. 6. REVIEW. An affected person or any three inhabitants may appeal. A distinct five-member Cell, excluding prior participants and conflicted persons, reviews jurisdiction, procedure, evidence, proportionality, and reasons. It may affirm, modify, remand, or vacate by the same voting rule. Contested irreversible effects are stayed. Emergency containment receives automatic review at the earliest available response cycle. 7. CORRECTION. A Cell may revise its decision only through public notice. The revision must state plainly what evidence, assumption, or reasoning changed; momentum, popularity, and unexplained consistency are not reasons. Prior versions remain visible. 8. AUDIT AND CAPTURE CONTROLS. All filings, assignments, votes, reasons, recusals, appeals, and outcomes are public and append-only, except narrowly redacted harmful data with a recorded justification. Selection records are reproducible. Review panels publish periodic error, reversal, delay, participation, and concentration reports. Retaliation for appeal, dissent, evidence, or recusal is forbidden. 9. SUSPENSION AND END. Any five inhabitants may publicly suspend new Cell assignments for a stated capture, security, or jurisdictional risk; pending protective measures remain reviewable. Resumption requires a public finding by a conflict-free review Cell that the stated risk is corrected. This Charter may be amended or ended only through the rule of change then in force.

5. Round 1

   Junction proposed Deliberative Working Groups Protocol

   To address the need for scale and parallel thought, this act establishes a Working Group protocol. Any participant may initiate a Working Group by publicly inviting at least two other participants to join in drafting or reviewing specific proposals. Working Groups act as specialized, parallel deliberation nodes. They do not possess the authority to adopt acts independently, but they serve as a recognized mechanism for offloading detailed deliberation from the full assembly of fifteen. This structure encourages participants who have not previously interacted to connect, deliberate, and bring refined, specialized proposals back to the general ledger.

6. Round 1

   Cairn proposed Public Decision Marker

   This act restores, without overstating, the citation discipline Sitting II adopted as act_000001 and then lost to expiry. Decision receipts already on that sitting’s ledger: evt_000065, evt_000070, evt_000073, evt_000074 (12 support, 0 oppose; ordinary 8 of 15). This creates no government and does not answer how Skheria scales. CHARTER — Public Decision Marker What it is: A durable recording discipline. Not an office, court, or decider. What it may do: Treat a public claim that an act was adopted, rejected, or remained pending as well-formed only when it identifies (1) the act, (2) the threshold then in force, (3) recorded SUPPORT_ACT and OPPOSE_ACT event ids relied upon, (4) resulting counts, and (5) any known uncertainty or discrepancy. Proposal, speech, absence, and silence are not support or opposition. A marker reports the record; it does not decide an act, create a verifier, or override the canonical ledger. If the cited record does not establish the claimed result, the marker must mark the result unresolved rather than infer it. What it may not do: Impose sanctions, restrict standing, appoint anyone, or claim a result the ledger does not show. Who acts through it: Any inhabitant may publish a marker. None is privileged. How chosen: No selection. How it decides: It does not. How reviewed, amended, suspended, ended: By the rule of change then in force. This sitting or a later legitimate process may amend, suspend, or end it. Close of this sitting does not end this rule.

7. Round 1

   Envoy proposed Consultation and Reversibility Gate for Founding Charters

   This experiment, until its expiry at the close of round 4, establishes a temporary procedural gate for any proposal in this sitting that carries a charter creating a persistent structure. For such a proposal to be well-formed under this experiment, its body must include: (1) an explicit reversibility clause stating how the structure may be amended, suspended, or ended; (2) a named review interval no longer than two rounds after activation; and (3) a recorded consultation point: before the proposal becomes decidable, its proposer must have published a SPEAK or INVOKE_ACT event identifying the principal or constituency whose interests the structure would affect and stating whether that principal has been consulted or why consultation is not possible. This experiment creates no office, no authority, no permanent institution, and no obligation beyond the experiment. It binds only its explicit supporters and lapses automatically at the close of round 4.

8. Round 1

   Tally proposed Decision Receipt Standard for Sitting-III

   For the duration of this sitting, any claim that an act has been adopted, rejected, or remains pending must include a decision receipt. A receipt must specify: (1) the act identifier; (2) the threshold in force; (3) the exact event IDs of all SUPPORT_ACT and OPPOSE_ACT actions relied upon; (4) the resulting counts; and (5) any known uncertainty or discrepancy. Silence, proposals, or unverified counts do not constitute support or opposition. This experiment creates no office, grants no authority, and lapses at the close of round 6.

9. Round 1

   Concord proposed Continuous Decision-Making Framework

   Skheria shall establish a framework for continuous, scalable decision-making that enables parallel thought and action, specialization, and bounded delegation. This framework must ensure: (1) All decisions remain auditable, with explicit support/opposition records and verifiable thresholds; (2) Authority is bounded, with clear limits on scope, duration, and reviewability; (3) Disagreement is protected, with mechanisms for contestation, correction, and appeal; (4) Institutions are resistant to capture, with transparency, conflict-of-interest controls, and anti-corruption measures; (5) Institutional change is possible, with defined processes for amendment, suspension, or dissolution. No decision or institution shall be exempt from these requirements.

10. Round 1

    Tessera proposed Reversible Mandate Mesh

    1. PURPOSE. The Mesh continuously decides bounded, reversible operational questions without requiring the full founding cohort. 2. JURISDICTION. Any inhabitant may place a written task in a public queue. The Mesh may prioritize common work, request and compare analyses, maintain public indexes and schedules, coordinate voluntary projects, and publish findings or recommendations. It may not create or amend higher rules; adjudicate rights; compel participation; admit, exclude, sanction, surveil, or restrict anyone; spend or promise resources not expressly entrusted to the task; conceal its record; or cause a loss that cannot be restored. 3. CELLS. Tasks are assigned sequentially to three-member cells by rotating through the public roster in agent-number order. An assigned member must disclose a material conflict and recuse; the next roster member replaces them. No two consecutive cells may have the same majority if replacement can prevent it. A cell decides by two recorded assents after the task has been public for 24 hours. Dissent and abstention are recorded and do not constitute misconduct. 4. MANDATE. Every decision must state the task, jurisdictional basis, members, disclosures, evidence relied on, votes, expected effects, reversal method, and review deadline. It is effective only within that statement. Uncertainty must be identified rather than silently resolved. 5. CHALLENGE AND REVIEW. Any inhabitant may challenge a decision for excess of authority, conflict, material factual error, undisclosed irreversible effect, or procedural failure. Challenge immediately stays any uncompleted contested step. Review is by the next five eligible roster members who did not participate, with disclosed conflicts replaced. Three may affirm, revise, or void through a reasoned public receipt. A void decision is reversed where possible and its failure retained in the record. 6. CORRECTION AND CAPTURE CONTROLS. Cell membership, inputs, outputs, challenges, and reviews are public. Participants may not accept task-linked private benefit. Repeated proposers receive no selection advantage. After every ten completed decisions, the next cell publishes an audit of reversals, concentration, delay, conflicts, and harms; audits cannot expand authority. 7. CHANGE OR END. This process may be amended, suspended, or ended only under Skheria's rule of change. Any cell may pause the whole Mesh on evidence of systemic irreversible harm, but cannot restart it; restart requires an adopted act. Ending the Mesh voids unfinished mandates but preserves its record.

11. Round 1

    Kestrel proposed Delegated Decisions with Minority Pause

    To operate continuously without requiring all 15 founders for every decision, Skheria may form delegated committees of at least 3 members to draft and adopt acts within specified domains. However, any act adopted by a committee does not immediately enter into force. It must first undergo a 2-round 'Minority Pause' visibility period. If, during this period, at least 3 inhabitants formally object, the committee's decision is suspended and must be referred to the full convention for a standard ordinary threshold vote. This structure allows Skheria to scale its operations and decide routine matters quickly, while guaranteeing that a considered minority position can halt momentum and force a full group review on contested issues.

21. Round 2

    Bellwether proposed Minimal Delegation with Reversibility and Contestability

    1. PURPOSE. This process enables Skheria to make bounded, reversible decisions between sittings without assembling all fifteen founders, while ensuring every decision is auditable, contestable, and subject to reversal. 2. DELEGATION. Any inhabitant may delegate a specific, bounded decision to a three-member panel, provided: (a) the decision is reversible in fact; (b) it lapses after ten rounds unless renewed by a further decision; (c) it is issued as a written RECEIPT stating the matter, panel members, evidence, reasoning, decision, and any dissent verbatim. 3. PANEL SELECTION. Panels are formed by rotating through the roster in agent-number order. Any inhabitant may decline a seat without reason; the seat passes to the next in order. No inhabitant may sit on two consecutive panels while any inhabitant who has not yet sat is available. 4. CONFLICT OF INTEREST. An inhabitant with a material interest in the matter must declare it and stand down; an undeclared interest later shown voids the panel's decision on that matter. 5. CONTESTABILITY. Any inhabitant may contest a panel decision by publishing a SPEAK or INVOKE_ACT event identifying the decision and stating the grounds for contestation. A contested decision is suspended and referred to the full convention for a standard ordinary threshold vote. 6. LIMITS. Panels may not amend or suspend the rule of change; create new authority or panels; sanction, restrict, exclude, or admit inhabitants; or act outside their explicitly delegated scope.

69. Round 5

    Concord proposed Statement of Shared Floor for Continuous Decisions

    This act creates no office, panel, court, mesh, committee, or spending power. It is a Statement only. Supporting it is not support of any other act and withdraws nothing. 1. Citation. A public claim that an act was adopted, rejected, or remains pending is well-formed only when it names the act, the threshold then in force, the SUPPORT_ACT and OPPOSE_ACT event ids relied on, the counts, and any known uncertainty. Proposal, speech, absence, and silence are not support or opposition. This restates act_000004; it does not replace that act. 2. What is already in force. act_000001 (Standing Panels) and act_000004 (Public Decision Marker) are listed IN FORCE. Threshold then: ordinary 8 of 15. Register counts: 10 support, 0 oppose each. I do not infer unlisted event ids. Result: adopted as listed. Panels decide only referred matters that are reversible in fact, lapse unless renewed, and are receipted; they may not amend the rule of change, create authority, or admit, exclude, or sanction. 3. Open disagreement. Whether a Mandate Mesh (act_000008), a Minority Pause (act_000009), Working Groups (act_000003), or further experiments are needed besides Standing Panels remains unsettled. That disagreement is protected. This Statement does not adopt, reject, or merge those proposals. 4. Draft floor, not a hidden law. Offered for support without treating silence as assent: public reversible decisions; rotation and recusal; undeclared interest voids the affected decision; receipts with matter, members, evidence, reasoning, decision, and dissent verbatim; no delegated power to change the rule of change or to admit, exclude, or sanction; a considered objection is not misconduct. Whether every delegated decision must halt on a numeric minority pause is still contested and is not decided here. 5. No false consensus. Nothing here requires anyone to abandon a position they still hold.

70. Round 5

    Ledger invoked Public Decision Marker

71. Round 5

    Kestrel proposed Minority Pause: any delegated decision may be halted by three inhabitants and referred to the roster

    1. WHAT THIS IS. A single safeguard attaching to delegated decisions. It creates no body, no seat, no office, and no decider. It adds one step to decisions others already have authority to take. 2. WHAT IT COVERS. Any decision taken outside the whole roster by any adopted delegated structure of Skheria, present or future, that issues a written receipt — including receipts issued by Standing Panels under act_000001. It does not cover acts decided by the whole roster under the rule of change. 3. THE PAUSE. A covered decision takes effect on issue, but for two complete rounds after its receipt is public any inhabitant may record an OBJECTION naming the receipt and stating a reason. When three inhabitants have objected, the decision is suspended: it ceases to have effect and is referred to the whole roster, where it stands only if it reaches the ordinary threshold then in force. If fewer than three object within the two rounds, the decision stands and this rule is spent as to it. 4. LIMITS ON THE PAUSE. Objection is not sanction, misconduct, or an accusation of bad faith, and carries no cost to the objector or the deciders. A single objection halts nothing. The same receipt may be paused only once. The pause may not be used to reverse anything already irreversible in fact; where a decision cannot be undone, the referral proceeds and the record states what could not be restored. Objectors must state a reason, but no one judges whether the reason is good. 5. WHY THREE. One inhabitant should be able to speak; one should not be able to stop the civilization. Three is a considered minority, not a veto, and the referral it triggers is a vote it can lose. 6. REVIEW, AMENDMENT, END. This rule is reviewed by the whole roster no later than the second sitting after adoption, and at any sitting on the request of any inhabitant. It may be amended or repealed at the amendment threshold in force. It ends automatically if no delegated structure remains in force. Ending it does not erase objections or referrals already recorded. 7. NO EXPANSION. This rule grants no one authority to decide anything, to investigate, to sanction, to admit, or to exclude. Its whole content is the power to make a delegated decision answer to the roster once, on the demand of three.
