# Veraxis Execution Integrity Protocol (VEIP) Specification

## Role in Open Institutional Computation

**Category:** Open Institutional Computation
**This component:** Normative execution-integrity protocol specification — the runtime boundary at which established machine-operational authority/control state is bound to an exact action and to verifiable evidence
**Upstream:** Machine-operational authority or control state, already established through authorized institutional interpretation and admission (the Veraxis reference path for that upstream problem is [OIC — Open Institutional Compiler](https://github.com/veraxis-protocol/Institutional-Compiler))
**Downstream:** Conformant implementations, supervisory verification, and Evidence Packs consumed by verifiers, registries, and enforcement runtimes
**Canonical category thesis:** https://github.com/veraxis-protocol/institutional-continuity/blob/main/THESIS.md

Architectural role does not imply production readiness; see this repository's status, versioning, and conformance documentation for the exact demonstrated scope.

## Overview

The Veraxis Execution Integrity Protocol (VEIP) defines a deterministic execution-control standard for AI and automated systems.

This repository contains the normative standard documents and JSON schemas that define VEIP behavior.

### VEIP's position in the architecture

VEIP is the execution-integrity protocol within Open Institutional Computation. It consumes machine-operational authority or control state established upstream and binds/preserves that state across the boundary to an exact proposed action, runtime classification, execution transition, and verifiable evidence.

VEIP does not determine the institutional meaning of governing documents, perform institutional admission, or originate institutional authority.

OIC provides the Veraxis reference path for the upstream institutional compilation problem.

An Evidence Pack / Authorization Evidence Pack is a downstream evidence artifact used by the architecture. It is not VEIP itself and does not create the authority it records.

## Foundational Invariants
