ARQ CC BY Public Snapshot: Canonical Protocol and Supporting Notes (2026-03-25)

This archival package captures a CC BY 4.0-oriented public snapshot of ARQ materials from the sovereign-entity-recursion repository. It contains the canonical ARQ normative and supporting note materials, corresponding PDF twins, and package-level provenance files. To keep the licensing frame clean, this package intentionally excludes copied MIT-licensed cross-repository evidence files and excludes AGPL code example materials. The wider public contour remains documented through commit anchors and public URL references. ARQ is presented here as an additive subsystem linking correction logic to SER continuity and then to L4 bounded accountability. Promoted deviations require witness-backed traceability, and adaptive handling remains bounded rather than open-ended.
