Reading the Diagram

• PSP controls permission and direction
• DIDP controls execution
• PPP controls disclosure
• Docs explain outcomes, not authority

Authority flows downward; explanation flows outward.

Authority Order

Rank	Protocol	Governs
1	PSP v1	What may be proposed
2	DIDP v1	How work is developed
3	PPP v1	How work is published
4	Documentation	Explanation only

---

Flow Rules

1. A proposal that conflicts with PSP MAY NOT proceed to development
2. A developed artifact that conflicts with DIDP MAY NOT converge
3. A converged artifact that conflicts with PPP MAY NOT be published

Two Repositories

Repository	Purpose	Mutability
Specs (specs.jellylabs.ai)	Canonical protocols	Immutable after publication
Docs	Explanatory material	Living, curated updates

Key Principle

Propose → Develop → Publish

Nothing becomes canonical without passing through all three gates.
