## Entries

- [Declared Jurisdiction](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/declared-jurisdiction.md): A design rule that a naming gate reads from one declaration the roots it governs, the containers and buckets under each, the classes of file exempt from the grammar, and the trees another system authors or resolves by name, which are exempted once and never governed.
- [Bounded Nesting Depth](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/bounded-nesting-depth.md): A rule or precondition that a file sits within a fixed number of folders below its governed root, with each folder taking a later role than the one above it.
- [Externally Resolved Slot](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/externally-resolved-slot.md): A mechanism that resolves a name slot whose words another source owns against that source, whether an index that allocates identities, an upstream key set or a field the file itself carries, so the closed vocabulary never holds a copy of them.
- [Root Spine Files](https://banes-lab.com/records/architecture/root-spine-files.md): A rule or precondition that a governed root carries only its entry document and its accumulators at the root, and every other file sits in a concern folder.
