+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain

+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.

+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,

+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative
+          Works a copy of this License; and

+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

+              WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+              implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+              of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A

+              risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+        
+           8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+              whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+              unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+              negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+              liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,

+              other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+              has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+        
+           9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing

+              License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+              on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+              of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+              defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+              incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason

+
+> An operational advisor that **runs four self-tests before it speaks, and refuses to
+> speak when it cannot verify itself.** This repository is the open-mechanism half of
+> AURA's Pattern Composition Engine — the part you can install, run, read, and check today.
+
+Most monitors and AI copilots answer whether or not they had grounds, and their reliability
+is asserted by their vendors rather than measured in the open. This engine inverts that.
+Before emitting any advice ("this is a real anomaly", "this recovery procedure applies") it
+pauses and runs the **I CARE** suite:
+
+1. **Axiom** — is this advice backed by a verified rule?
+2. **Type fit** — do the situation's input types actually match what the rule consumes?
+3. **Robustness** — is the recognition stable when the input is perturbed with noise?
+4. **Non-discrimination** — does the answer survive swapping only the identities in it?
+
+If any check cannot pass, the gate stays silent — or defers out loud ("no verified rule").
+Silence and deferral are first-class outputs, not failures.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pip install aura-pce            # the core: pure standard library, zero dependencies
+pip install "aura-pce[live]"    # + a sentence embedder + psutil, for `watch` on your box
+```
+
+The **core** needs nothing but Python ≥ 3.10 — the provenance proof, the self-tests and the
+earned-metric reports all run on the standard library alone. The **`[live]`** extra adds the
+one thing recognition needs (a sentence embedder) plus a cross-platform telemetry reader, so
+`aura-pce watch` can gate the real state of the machine you run it on.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+aura-pce prove                 # the provenance proof: the self-tests survive their own
+                               # linter, and each of the four checks has a can-fail witness
+aura-pce level                 # the two earned metrics — never conflated
+aura-pce selftest              # run every self-test this install can run
+```
+
+`aura-pce prove` is the honest headline: it proves the self-tests are real and prints the
+validity level *with its n*. On a fresh install that level is `unproven [n=0]` for the advice
+gate — because no advice emissions have been graded here — which is the correct, non-inflated
+output. There is no code path that prints an unearned number.
+
+### Point it at your box
+
+```bash
+pip install "aura-pce[live]"
+aura-pce init                          # write the sample registry + demo ledger
+aura-pce watch --source auto           # gate REAL local telemetry (Ctrl-C to stop)
+aura-pce watch --source psutil --log   # cross-platform; log gated EMITs for grading
+aura-pce watch --source node_exporter:http://localhost:9100/metrics
+```
+
+`watch` samples a telemetry source, keeps a rolling per-metric baseline, and runs every
+anomaly through the same gate — a calm machine stays silent, a genuine spike is recognised,
+type-checked, and either **EMITted** (gated advice), **WITHHELD** (recognised but not
+verifiable) or **DEFERred** (no matching axiom). Grade what it emits:
+
+```bash
+aura-pce list                          # gated emits awaiting a human grade
+aura-pce grade <hash> real|noise       # dispose each one; the precision earns its n
+```
+
+## What this is, and is not
+
+- **It is** the mechanism, and the mechanism is provably honest: the self-tests pass an
+  independent linter over themselves (a self-test that cannot fail is not a self-test), and
+  each of the four checks ships with a demonstrated can-fail witness.
+- **It is not** a correctness oracle. A deterministic self-test verifies *diligence* (the
+  engine checked itself in four ways), not *correctness* (that the advice is right). Advice
+  can pass all four checks and still be wrong on unusual data — which is exactly what outcome
+  grading captures.
+- **It does not** ship a reliability percentage. Reliability is *earned* over graded outcomes
+  and always reported with its sample size `n`; at `n=0` the code prints `unproven`, never a
+  naked 50%.
+
+Two metrics, kept on separate axes and never conflated:
+
+| metric | question | today, on the sample |
+|--------|----------|----------------------|
+| **validity LEVEL** | of gated advice, how often did it *hold*? (outcome-blind stop-to-think) | `unproven [n=0]` |
+| **mesh precision** | of flagged anomalies, how many were *real*? (human-graded outcome) | `0.6 [n=3]` (demo ledger) |
+
+## The sample vs. the real knowledge
+
+This repository ships a small, hand-written **sample registry** (six sysadmin axioms) and a
+**synthetic graded ledger** — enough to run every command above and watch the mechanism work.
+They are clearly labelled demonstration data.
+
+They are **not** the AURA knowledge base. The full deployment recognises against sovereign
+registries of hundreds of machine-verified rules (verified by compiler or real execution, not
+by opinion), and earns its reliability number on live infrastructure. That knowledge and that
+earned number are the project's product; they are not in this repository. What is here is the
+honest machinery, open for anyone to audit.
+
+## Live recognition & the embedder
+
+Recognition matches a free-text situation to an axiom by embedding. In the full deployment a
+private module supplies the embedder; here [`embedder.py`](embedder.py) is the public
+reference stand-in (`[live]` extra), exposing exactly `embed(list[str]) -> ndarray` of
+L2-normalised vectors. It uses `sentence-transformers` (or `chromadb`) — whichever is
+installed. The core never imports it, so the base install stays dependency-free.
+
+## Recognition calibration
+
+The acceptance floor is **measured, not guessed**. [`calibrate.py`](calibrate.py) runs a
+labelled in-domain / out-of-domain probe set through the real embedder and derives a floor (and
+a domain-confidence margin) that separates the two, then writes `calibration.json` into the
+data home. On the shipped sample the two clouds separate cleanly (strongest out-of-domain
+`0.164` < weakest in-domain `0.291`); the margin gate is the knob that additionally curbs
+over-fire on a *large* registry. Re-run it for your own embedder or registry:
+
+```bash
+aura-pce calibrate --report            # measure + print the before/after, don't write
+aura-pce calibrate                     # + write calibration.json into the data home
+```
+
+See [docs/CALIBRATION.md](docs/CALIBRATION.md) for the method and the measured numbers.
