MSBAi · Knowledge Base Governance

Every rule K-ai follows, on one page.

K-ai runs on a written constitution: a registry of numbered rules (G-rules) that control what it may write, send, and change — and how every output is fact-checked and audited. This page reads the live registry directly, so it is always exactly as current as the rules themselves.

How a rule is born

Something happensA friction point, near-miss, or repeated pattern shows up in live use — flagged by you, Vishal, or K-ai itself.
Candidate filedIt becomes an RC-### entry in the rule-candidates list. Anyone can file, including K-ai autonomously. Nothing changes yet.
Vishal reviewsApprove, amend, or reject. Only the program admin can promote a candidate — rules about rules are admin-only.
G-rule assignedThe rule gets its permanent G-number and an enforcement tier, and enters the registry below.
Monthly reviewRules are revisited against K-ai's actual history. Conventions that leak get hardened into skills or code.

This mirrors how the group agreed to refine K-ai at the June 12, 2026 meeting: teach by example and interaction, then solidify what works. The full registry lives at program/kb-governance.

The rules, live from the registry

Enforcement tiers: code rules are enforced by the runtime — K-ai cannot skip them even if asked. skill rules are programmatic gates K-ai must invoke before acting. convention rules are written instructions — followed, audited, and hardened over time. A ⚠ marks a rule whose tier is known to be weaker than its stakes — those are on the hardening watchlist. Click any rule to see where it is implemented; click “Ask K-ai about this” to query it below.

How governance has evolved

    Ask K-ai about its own governance

    K-ai can explain any rule, why it exists, and what it means for you — observers welcome. Web chat is read-only (that's rule G15): nothing you type here changes the knowledge base. To send updates or corrections, email msbai@illinihunt.org.

    Hi — I'm K-ai. Ask me anything about how I'm governed: what a rule means, why it exists, or what it implies for how you work with me. Pick a suggested question above or write your own.
