README

Zenchron Engineering OS

Policy-governed autonomous software engineering infrastructure that turns engineering intent into bounded work, verified evidence, and authorized software changes.

Thesis

Zenchron Engineering is **not** a generic multi-agent orchestrator. Coding agents are replaceable execution providers. The durable system governs engineering change:

engineering intent
  -> engineering facts
  -> policy
  -> obligations and invariants
  -> bounded execution
  -> evidence
  -> authority decision

The core rule is simple: **agents may reason and execute, but they may not self-authorize material outcomes.**

Status

This repository is in architecture/bootstrap stage. The first objective is to specify and validate the Engineering Authorization Kernel before building a broad orchestration or control-plane product.

Technology decisions

Core implementation language: Go
Canonical machine-readable representation: JSON
Contract/schema format: JSON Schema
Agent providers: replaceable adapters; initial targets are Codex and Claude
Assurance providers: pluggable; Sentinel Shield is the Zenchron-native high-fidelity integration
Execution environments: pluggable; Zenchron Foundry is the native provenance-oriented integration

YAML is not a canonical representation. It may be supported later only as an optional authoring format that normalizes to JSON.

Core domain

The v0.1 domain is centered on:

ProjectModel
EngineeringFact
EngineeringPolicy
EngineeringWorkContract
EvidenceBundle
AuthorityDecision
