Governance
Every substantive decision is six Living Code sections long.
Observation · Polarity · Correspondence · Proposal · Human Cost · Rhythm. If a proposal cannot fit those six sections, it is not a proposal — it is a reaction. Votes are signed events. Four paths: yes, no, stand-aside, or not-yet (with reasoning). Review dates are set before the vote opens.

Witness event rate limits — how often can we vouch
Witness events (kind 30404) are how merit is recognized here. Without any social friction, high-trust members could be pressured into mass-witnessing, which would collapse the signal into noise.
