Language Governance

In language-driven systems, uncontrolled expression leads to uncontrolled action.
Language Governance defines how AI agents are constrained in communication, reasoning, and authority expression.

Within the SlashLife architecture, Language Governance functions as a behavioral constraint layer that determines what an agent may say, how it may reason, and how intent is expressed across roles and cultures.

Language as a Governed Interface

Authority Expression

Language encodes authority. Governance ensures agents do not exceed their institutional or legal mandate.

Intent Preservation

Meaning must remain stable across translation, summarization, and cross-cultural communication.

Failure Containment

Language Governance limits escalation paths, preventing hallucinated authority or unintended commitments.

Architectural Boundary

  • This layer does not define UI copy or branding tone
  • It does not replace legal review or organizational policy
  • It constrains how language-driven execution may occur

Implementation of tone systems, semantic modules, or multilingual handling is determined at the product layer.

These governance constraints are operationalized within the AI Workforce OS as part of its execution runtime.
