The executable spine beneath every module.

Sprint 33 integrates Coordination Operating System materials into TraceScript: the Governed Signal Kernel, trace lifecycle, recovery, and contradiction substrates — the trunk that product modules compose through.

Runtime invariant

System family hierarchy

Coordination OS is the operating environment. TraceScript is the governance runtime inside it. Product modules (believe / say / do) are branches — not replacements for the kernel.

raw input
  → GovernedSignal
  → GovernanceDecision
  → Trace (phase / influence boundary)
  → ReplayReceipt
  → CoordinationState update
  → memory / canon / disclosure / action / recovery paths

Trunk corpus

Nine documents — architecture specs, build plan, conformance suite, patent addendum, companion kernels, and buyer whitepapers. Canonical map in repo: TRACESCRIPT_TRUNK_ARCHITECTURE.md.

RC1 alignment

The shipped runtime already walks the kernel path: ingest signal → integrity evaluate → receipt → replay. Sprint 34+ makes GovernedSignal, GovernanceDecision, and trace-phase influence explicit in contracts and orchestrator.

Language foundation

Trunk architecture sits above the language foundation corpus (paradigm, specs v0.1–v0.5, Code Medium). Read both for the full TraceScript family tree.
