Owner decision of 2026-09-20 answering four of the five open questions from the Mode of Authority assessment, recorded as SEC-DEC-0001 with the reasoning in docs/adr-001-securitycanon-boundary.md. CARING stays in InfoTechCanon: it is implementation-layer and imports eleven InfoTechCanon models, and SecurityCanon should help rather than hinder keeping InfoTechCanon practical. Identity stays a shared root, since pulling it in would collapse too much into security and it reaches into personhood; a dedicated identity or personhood canon is deferred, not rejected. Mode of Authority is architecture where CARING is implementation — different layers of abstraction, neither subsuming the other, but they must not use the same word for different things. No service surface is duplicated: integration is uniform across commerce-canon, interface-canon and security-canon through the canon-federation interface card, and InfoTechCanon's service stays the only one. Content migration is therefore no longer a goal. T02 narrows from a disposition review to concept placement, T03 becomes a non-collision survey, and T05, the migration workplan handoff, is cancelled. T06 gains the three-way mapping table and T07 becomes the terminology separation decision. The remaining open question is analysed in docs/260920-actor-subject-implications.md. InfoTechCanon's access-control model already owns Actor and Subject and binds them as "Subject is the access-control view of an actor", while Mode of Authority uses the same two words for two distinct parties; and CARING already carries the split for non-human subjects. The note recommends renaming Mode of Authority's second party to Authority Context rather than changing a release-candidate standard.
