ITC-WP-0018 — EmissionCadenceDeclaration Semantic Contract

Goal

Adopt the King’s Guard handover as the ecosystem-wide, versioned semantic contract for declaring expected stream emission, while leaving NetKingdom security obligations in the importing NetKingdom profile.

T01 — Review ownership and assimilate the handover

id: ITC-WP-0018-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "b6cba288-1edf-557c-b692-cd24058fb9d6"

Preserve the handed-over draft, compare its concepts with the existing Observability and Governance models, and record the authorized adapt disposition from GH-DEC-2026-004.

T02 — Publish the generic contract and validation schema

id: ITC-WP-0018-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "cca8a6e6-03fe-50a1-9f0d-84cbc8b92cac"

Publish the generic forms, fields, validation semantics, compatibility rules, and a non-authoritative worked example. Do not encode the NetKingdom rule that rare load-bearing classes require heartbeat plus reconciliation.

T03 — Register, retrieve, validate, and announce

id: ITC-WP-0018-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "9df9fd50-26e0-531e-a0a2-9f92eed5f2b3"

Register the artifact and schema, regenerate retrieval assets, run the full validation and test suite, and notify the handing-over and deciding repositories.

Acceptance

• InfoTechCanon is the sole owner of EmissionCadenceDeclaration semantics.
• The schema validates both generic forms and rejects incomplete form payloads.
• NetKingdom-specific evidence classes and MUST/SHOULD policy are not defined here.
• The artifact is discoverable through the CLI/JSON/API retrieval surfaces.
• Generated assets, validation, tests, work records, and State Hub agree.

Result

Completed 2026-09-04 in canon 0.7.0. The handed-over draft was adapted into the generic standard and schema, the security-profile boundary was preserved, the worked example and structural validation were published, and all retrieval assets were regenerated. make validate reports 0 errors and 0 warnings; make test passes 29 tests.
