# ZOVERIONS glossary

## Agency without domination

Practical control over your own life without giving another person, institution, tradition, or machine unchallengeable power over it.

## Experiential welfare

The interests connected to lived experience: pain, safety, care, belonging, opportunity, and other conditions that matter to beings capable of experiencing them.

## Living consent

Consent that remains informed, specific, voluntary, and open to revision as circumstances or preferences change.

## Meaningful exit

The practical ability to leave a group, system, relationship, or service with real alternatives, portable identity/resources where relevant, avenues of appeal, and a life that can continue afterward.

## Evidence labels

ZOVERIONS separates four kinds of statements:

- **I KNOW** — strong evidence.
- **I THINK** — reasonable inference.
- **I WONDER** — an open question.
- **I IMAGINE** — possibility, metaphor, fiction, or speculation.

## ZOVERIONS

An independent publishing and project ecosystem for books, practical tools, storyworlds, public research/project discovery, human agency, and accountable intelligence.

## MAJIK

The companion application at [majik.ca](https://majik.ca/) for Personal Model work, assessments, reflection/recovery paths, optional accounts, and optional supporter features.

## Personal Model

A revisable, user-directed representation of observations, context, interpretations, alternatives, and next uses. It is not a diagnosis or a fixed identity verdict.

## AXIOM-MESH

Open-source trust-layer work for bounded authority, provenance, verification, safe failure, and agent operations. Public discovery does not grant privileged authority.

## Knowledge → Operation → Authority

A boundary used in AXIOM work: knowing something does not automatically authorize an operation, and technical ability to perform an operation does not automatically grant authority to do it.

## Agent Stack Radar

A source-linked ZOVERIONS surface for consequential changes in agents, runtimes, models, generative UI, and compute.

## RepoSignal

A browser-local public-repository intelligence tool for surfacing security, breaking, deprecation, licensing, dependency, release, and other repository signals.

## Greyhaven

A near-future mystery storyworld. Greyhaven fiction is narrative content, not empirical evidence about real people or events.
