Lighthouse — Conformance self-description

Self-attested; seed stage. Registry IDs: JFA/jfa-conformance-suite.py. Lighthouse declares its own seven-point standard in lighthouse-seed.md ("The standard"); this file maps that standard onto the architecture registry and states honestly what is designed vs. built (nothing is built yet).

Shape: an education-layer witnessed knowledge commons (Part VI), carried by civic hubs that each hold the coordinator and witness roles — pointed outward, never witnessing their own log.

ID / discipline Status
No truth authority (Part VI) Met by design — flag never finding, anchor never certify; occurrence-never-truth at T4; no verdict from any hub, center, scan, or model
Citation legible and forkable (Part VI) Met by design — typed discovery graph, provenance rendered, artifacts in the AGPL content-addressed commons
Reputation earned, never sold (Part VI) Met by design — no paid placement; attestation is a service never a purchasable rank
Claims anchored as claims (Part VI) Met by design — the bound triple (fact/procedure/result) anchors inputs and outputs, never a verdict
COV-1 no averaging Met by design — full distribution; concordance held per category ("consistent at four hubs, inconsistent at one"); citation counts size nothing permanently
COV-3 symmetric Met by design — every anchor answerable; challenges are first-class edges; dismissals annotate; breach annotates never erases
REC-1/3 append-only, PII-free Met by design — structural facts and hashes only; artifact-dark instead of erasure; no PII in the commons
REC-6/7/8 witnessing, filing upstream Designed — no institution witnesses its own log; harm files at a neighboring hub; two-hub federation floor with stand-in label below it
COV-6 Sybil before citation-weight Met by design (by ordering) — weight sizes nothing until a governed witnessed switch; corroboration counts hubs not accounts; physical presence is the per-unit cost
ECO-2/4/5 economy inflow Designed — eligibility never sizing; earned-never-bought, non-redeemable; regulatory read gates the switch
GOV-9 living open-questions document MetOPEN-QUESTIONS.md extracts Part IX; the seed's Part IX is the prose source
GOV-10 copyleft commons Met — AGPL-3.0 (code), inbound = outbound, no CLA
Problem 2 / Stage 0 Named — nothing above T1 reads honestly until the federated two-hub record is real; all standing is self-attested until then

Honesty line: Lighthouse is a seed — every row above is design, not running code. Its hub-as-witness construction is a proposed lever on architecture problem 8, to be proven in deployment, not assumed. Launch floor is two independent hubs; anything less ships under the stand-in label.
