IX-CognitionKernel is a source-available research repository for building a governed causal cognition kernel for evidence-bound agentic AI.

Repository name: IX-CognitionKernel
Project purpose: a governed causal cognition kernel research project intended to pursue a disciplined path toward increasingly general, evidence-bound agentic AI capability through belief tracking, uncertainty exposure, world-model planning, evaluator-driven learning, memory quarantine, multi-agent critique, human authority, and outcome-based self-correction.
IX-CognitionKernel does not claim to be artificial general intelligence.
IX-CognitionKernel does not claim to be certified AGI, independently validated AGI, production-ready autonomy, safety-certified software, security-certified software, procurement-ready software, or a system suitable for unsupervised operational decision-making.
The project explicitly reserves any AGI claim for Wave 6 only if overwhelming, durable, independently validated evidence justifies that claim.
