Document ID: CC-EXTRACT-ARQUA-01
Version: 0.1
Date: 19 September 2026
Standing: INTERNAL — CANDIDATE EXTRACTION / ADMISSION PRE-SCREEN. NO COMMONS PUBLICATION OR ADMISSION IS AUTHORISED.
Purpose
Extract potentially reusable semantic artefacts from recent Codex Health → CR → Arqua federation/alignment/high-level architecture work and test whether any are mature/general enough to enter a future Codex Commons admission pipeline.
Discovery in CR or Arqua does not create Commons standing.
Candidate path:
Research / Architecture / Empirical Work → Reduction → Generality Test → Semantic Stability Test → IP/Public Boundary → Commons Admission Decision → Publication.
Commons publication, if later authorised, supplies public identity/version/definition/provenance. It does not create enterprise authority, permitted reliance, customer acceptance or execution rights.
Extraction criteria
A candidate should be general beyond one customer/sector; semantic rather than implementation machinery; sufficiently stable; non-authoritative; reducible without exposing protected IP; source-clean; useful; and testable.

CC-C01 — Standing-Preservation Distinction Set
Candidate distinctions:
- Evidence ≠ Representation
- Representation ≠ Reality
- Representation ≠ Institutional Standing
- Standing ≠ Authority
- Authority ≠ Technical Permission
- Conformance ≠ Acceptance
- Conformance ≠ Runtime Admissibility
- Qualified Understanding ≠ Authority to Act
- Capability ≠ Implementation
- Reference Definition ≠ Customer Implementation
- Observed Evidence ≠ Accepted Model
- Publication ≠ Institutional Authority
The pattern recurred across Codex Health representation sufficiency, RCA/context qualification, authority reconciliation, federation, Pressure Test, technology alignment and framework fixtures.
Candidate Commons form: a small Standing & Representation Vocabulary defining roles and prohibited implicit promotions.
Readiness: HIGH for admission research; not publication-ready.
CC-C02 — Typed Alignment Relation Vocabulary
Candidate relations:
ALIGNS_WITH · MAPS_TO · SPECIALISES · REALISES · SUPPORTS · CONSUMES · PRODUCES · IMPLEMENTS · HOSTS · EXPOSES · GOVERNS · EVIDENCES · DEPENDS_ON · OVERLAPS_WITH · CONSTRAINS · CONFLICTS_WITH · SUPERSEDES.
Key rule:
Mapping ≠ identity.
Exact equivalence should be used only where separately established.
Risks: relation names may overlap established semantic-web/architecture vocabularies. Commons should reuse established predicates where appropriate rather than mint unnecessary synonyms. Source/licence review required.
Readiness: HIGH/MEDIUM.
CC-C03 — Reference / Designed / Implemented / Observed
Candidate pattern:
REFERENCE
≠
DESIGNED / ACCEPTED
≠
IMPLEMENTED
≠
OBSERVEDEvidence:
- APQC reference process vs customer process vs observed execution;
- BIAN reference domain vs customer capability vs deployment;
- TM Forum reference API vs deployed API vs observed transaction;
- CSDM recorded/design topology vs observed operational state;
- vendor documentation vs customer configuration vs observed behaviour.
Readiness: HIGH.
CC-C04 — Mapping Qualification Envelope
Candidate semantic metadata:
mapping identity · source identity/version/lens · target identity/version · relation · mapping purpose · scope/applicability · rationale/evidence · mapper · acceptance/standing authority · standing/status · effective period · qualification where meaningful · conflicts · supersession · revalidation trigger.
Potentially split into Commons semantic core plus optional implementation profile.
Readiness: HIGH/MEDIUM.
CC-C05 — Epistemic / Learning Vocabulary
Candidate chain:
Observation/Evidence → Representation → Interpretation → Qualified Understanding → Proposed Action → Outcome Evidence → Revision.
Potential states from CR work include:
Observed · Represented · Interpreted · Inferred · Hypothesised · Projected · Predicted · Validated · Contested · Superseded.
Need to distinguish epistemic state, institutional standing, workflow state and evidence status.
Readiness: MEDIUM.
CC-C06 — Boundary Standing Principle
Candidate proposition:
An object or claim should not acquire greater institutional standing merely because it crosses a system, context, organisational, jurisdictional, publication or technology boundary.
Repeated across health→individual inference, CR→Arqua, internal→public, authority representation→authority, vendor claim→customer use, customer evidence→Arqua learning and framework→customer model.
Risk: may be CR research proposition rather than Commons vocabulary.
Readiness: MEDIUM / RESEARCH HOLD.
CC-C07 — Proposition-Relative Authority
Candidate distinction:
Different authorities may govern different propositions; possession of a role, system, record or technical capability does not imply universal authority.
Authority is legally/culturally/institutionally sensitive; Indigenous/custodial authority work makes universal simplification dangerous.
Readiness: MEDIUM — specialist review.
CC-C08 — Technology Evidence Standing Pattern
Candidate distinctions:
- Source Assertion
- Normalised Classification
- Alignment Interpretation
- Customer Implementation Claim
- Observed Behaviour
- Conformance Finding
- Runtime Outcome
Prevents vendor marketing → architecture truth and customer implementation → generic vendor capability.
Readiness: HIGH/MEDIUM.
Explicit exclusions

PUBLIC IDENTITY + VERSION + PROVENANCERecommended first admission experiment
Start with CC-C03 Reference / Designed / Implemented / Observed, because it is easy to explain, has evidence across independent fixtures, is less entangled with CR theory, has interoperability value and does not require protected runtime architecture.
Second: CC-C01 Standing-Preservation Distinction Set.
Third: CC-C04 Mapping Qualification Envelope + CC-C02 typed relations, after prior-art/external-vocabulary review.
Commons relationship to Arqua/CR
Codex Commons publishes selected reusable semantic artefacts that have survived research/architecture use and a separate admission process. It does not publish everything CR discovers or everything Arqua implements.
Pattern:
CR/Arqua discovery → candidate semantic residue → Commons admission → reusable public semantic artefact.
Later use by Arqua/customer remains a new mapping/adoption act; Commons publication does not create enterprise standing.
Decision
CC-EXTRACT-ARQUA-01 — CANDIDATE EXTRACTION COMPLETE.
- Eight candidate semantic artefacts identified.
- CC-C03 recommended as first Commons admission experiment.
- CC-C01 recommended second.
- CC-C02/04 require prior-art/external-vocabulary review.
- CC-C05/06/07 remain research-sensitive.
- ARQUA mnemonic/Resonance view and protected architecture remain excluded.
- No publication/admission authorised.
- Next step: hostile admission test of CC-C03 against unrelated domains and existing semantic standards.
