Research grounded in explicit engineering principles.

Alongside practical applications, Caivra explores deterministic authority, AI governance, controlled execution, and evidence-driven software engineering. Our CEOS Infrastructure research provides a public record of these ideas and their limitations.

Featured publication

CEOS Infrastructure as a Governed Transactional Assurance Substrate for Autonomous Software Engineering

The publication explores how explicit permissions, bounded capabilities, and deterministic execution authority can structure autonomous software engineering. It examines the role of evidence and provenance in understanding decisions and observed effects, and recovery in reconciling outcomes when execution does not proceed as intended.
