+  layer model §11)'
+status: open

+description: 'A conformance sweep on 2026-08-28 found this repository has no layer
+  declaration of its own. It carries a layering review note gate-house wrote into
+  the top of its INTENT.md on 2026-08-24, and that note names a layer — but the words
+  are gate-house''s, sitting above a line admitting the body is unadapted. Section
+  11 has since been amended to say so explicitly: a layer stated about a repository
+  by another repository is not a declaration; only the repository''s own file, in
+  its own voice, conforms. Seven of fifteen estate-authored repositories have declared;
+  this is one of the eight that have not, and the standard does not claim adoption
+  on the basis of notes gate-house wrote. REQUESTED: state the layer in INTENT.md
+  in your own voice, or contest it. PROPOSED LAYER: Taxonomy. Cross-cutting semantic
+  contracts for the whole ecosystem; NetKingdom-specific security architecture is
+  net-kingdom canon''s. The boundary between the two canons is worth stating in your
+  own words. Contesting is a real option and costs nothing — the three repositories
+  that reviewed this model each returned a correction, two of which changed the standard.
+  If the proposed layer is wrong for what this repository actually does, that is more
+  useful to us than a label added to close a checkbox. Standard: net-kingdom/canon/standards/security-layer-model_v0.4.md.'
