Human-facing first

Complex governance should not become user friction.

If someone can navigate familiar documents, websites, folders, tabs, and search, SIW should give them a comprehensible path into governed knowledge — with deeper inspection available when needed.

01AskBegin with an ordinary inquiry.
02InspectReview interpretation and assumptions.
03BranchExplore alternatives without silent overwrite.
04CompareEvaluate findings, evidence, and tradeoffs.
05Accept / rejectKeep human judgment visible.
06Inspect standingLater consequence requires separate authority.
Progressive disclosure

One experience, not separate “casual” and “expert” products.

The difference is depth. An ordinary user sees clear language and actions; a researcher can open lineage, evidence, technical state, receipts, or release records without switching to a different product.

First layer

Question, interpretation, alternatives, selected finding, clear status.

Inspection layer

Assumptions, evidence, lineage, related objects, branch state, open questions.

Technical layer

Version, repository source, schema, hash, receipt, release head, verification record where appropriate.

Experience lineage

Use the original prototype, not a screenshot of it.

The Generation 0 SIW surface remains directly navigable so visitors can experience semantic reflection, context assembly, branch exploration, and provenance before reading about the deeper R2 architecture.
