Declare concepts and review boundaries for the silent artifacts (T02) Twelve of the thirteen artifacts that declared nothing now declare what they define, together with the map-assigned concepts the Organization Model was missing and the Landscape seed concepts the extractor cannot see because they are listed rather than defined in prose. The ownership index grows from 164 entries to 750, undeclared prose definitions fall from 637 to 57, and there are no ownership conflicts. The 57 that remain are overlaps this round assigned to another owner: imports, each recorded in a boundary review. The kernel map declares nothing, deliberately, because it assigns concepts to owners rather than defining them. It is now the only silent artifact and the suite asserts that, so an artifact added without declarations fails. itc-org:Authority is declared, with Actor, Ownership, Membership, Role, Responsibility and Accountability, which SecurityCanon and the identity model already treat as organization-owned. The regression test that previously asserted the blind spot now asserts that the kernel map's assignment and the declaration agree. Profile is deliberately left undeclared. The kernel map assigns it to Core, the identity model owns it under accepted CUST-ADR-006, and Observability defines a runtime performance profile. Three senses need a decision, not a declaration, so it is recorded as open rather than forced. Eleven boundary reviews are added beside the artifacts they describe, in the shape the identity model has used since INFO-WP-0021. The largest finding is that Core and the Information Space model restate eight provenance concepts in nearly identical words; Core owns them and Information Space imports. Label, Drift, Summary and Attribute are resolved by disambiguation rather than transfer. make check passes with 50 tests, clean validation, no stale generated assets.

# InfoTechCanon Core concept boundary review — 2026-09-20
Authority: INFO-WP-0027-T02, the declaration round that gave this artifact an
`owned_concepts` list. Resolutions cite the kernel map concept-owner table where
it assigns an owner, and are decided in this review where it does not. No concept
is renamed, moved or removed.
| Concept | Owner | Resolution | Decided by |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Activity` | kernel/itc-core | Core and Information Space state this definition in nearly the same words. Core owns the provenance mechanism; Information Space imports it. | this review |
| `AgentBrief` | kernel/itc-core | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
| `AgentReference` | kernel/itc-core | Same definition restated. Core owns it as part of the provenance family the kernel map assigns to Core; Information Space imports. | this review |
| `Alias` | kernel/itc-core | Core defines the general alternative identifier or label; Information Space restates it and imports. | this review |
| `DecisionRecord` | kernel/itc-core | Core owns the record type; the Information Space enumeration of context, options, rationale and consequences is guidance on the same concept, not a second definition. | this review |
| `Dependency` | model/task | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
| `Drift` | kernel/itc-core | Core owns Drift as divergence of artifact usage from definition. The Network sense, divergence between intended, declared, applied and observed state, is configuration drift and is a distinct qualified concept. Disambiguation rather than transfer. | this review |
| `ExternalReference` | kernel/itc-core | Core owns the outward pointer; Information Space scopes it to sources outside the information space and imports. | this review |
| `Identifier` | model/identity | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
| `Influence` | kernel/itc-core | Identical definitions. Core owns it with the provenance family; Information Space imports. | this review |
| `Label` | kernel/itc-core | Three uses, one owner. Core owns Label as a human-readable name. The Tagging sense, a display-oriented representation of a Tag, is a qualified use of the same word and keeps its section; Information Space imports. No rename. | this review |
| `Namespace` | kernel/itc-core | Core owns the naming scope; Information Space adds the collision-prevention purpose and imports. Identity Realm and Tagging namespaces specialize it rather than redefining it. | this review |
| `Profile` | undecided | Unresolved and deliberately undeclared by Core. Three senses exist: the canon profile artifact (Core prose), the identity Profile owned under accepted CUST-ADR-006, and the Observability runtime performance profile already disambiguated in the identity boundary review. The kernel map assigns Profile to Core, which contradicts the accepted identity ownership. Resolving it needs a decision, not a declaration. | kernel map |
| `ProvenanceRecord` | kernel/itc-core | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
| `Source` | kernel/itc-core | Identical definitions. Core owns it; Information Space imports. | this review |
| `Standard` | kernel/itc-core | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
| `VersionRecord` | kernel/itc-core | Assigned by the kernel map concept-owner table. | kernel map |
Concepts this artifact declares are listed in its frontmatter. An overlap recorded
here means another artifact defines the same name; where the owner is another
artifact, this one imports the definition rather than restating it.
