Copy-ready shapes for records, manifests, bands, stamps, and field glossary.
18.1 Minimal SSMDE record template
Use this smallest meaningful shape to start emitting responsibility-aware data today.
{
value: {
<domain_key_1>: <raw_number_or_state>,
<domain_key_2>: <raw_number_or_state>
},
align: <bounded_dial_in_(-1,+1)>,
band: "<HUMAN_ACTION_LABEL>",
manifest_id: "<POLICY_AND_THRESHOLD_ID>",
stamp: "SSMCLOCK1|<utc_ts>|θ=<anchor>|sha256=<digest>|prev=<digest_prev>"
}
Rules:
• value is sacred (original m; no smoothing/rescaling). Collapse parity holds: phi((m,a)) = m.
• align must use the canonical pipeline: a_c := clamp(a_raw, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a) → u := atanh(a_c) → U += w*u; W += w → align := tanh( U / max(W, eps_w) ).
• band is action-bearing policy now (e.g., “GREEN”, “AMBER”, “RED”, “AUTO-EXECUTE”, “HUMAN-REVIEW”, “A++”, “A-“).
• manifest_id names the frozen rulebook in force.
• stamp binds time, order, and content; omit only for low-risk prototypes.
18.2 Manifest template
A manifest freezes math, bands, actions, timing, and assumptions.
manifest_id: "PLANT_A_BEARING_SAFETY_v7"
description: "Main line bearing housing temperature + vibration health policy."
bands:
GREEN:
align_min: +0.20
align_max: +1.00
action: "Continue normal operation."
timing: "No special intervention."
AMBER:
align_min: -0.40
align_max: +0.20
action: "Throttle load; inspect within 30 minutes."
timing: "Open inspection ticket in ≤30 min."
RED:
align_min: -1.00
align_max: -0.40
action: "Immediate controlled shutdown."
timing: "Shut down now; escalate to safety lead."
align_computation:
step_1: "a_c := clamp(a, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a)"
step_2: "u := atanh(a_c)"
step_3: "U += w*u ; W += w"
step_4: "align := tanh( U / max(W, eps_w) )"
eps_a: 1e-6
eps_w: 1e-9
weight_rule: "w := 1.0"
escalation_owner: "Shift supervisor + safety officer on-call"
revision_notes: "v7 raised AMBER urgency window from 2h to 30m after incident review."
Keys: bands are numeric, every band has timing, math is declared, and the manifest is versioned (no silent edits).
18.3 Band definition block (short form)
A pocket card for operators — must match the manifest exactly.
BAND MEANINGS (PLANT_A_BEARING_SAFETY_v7)
GREEN:
Stable. Continue.
AMBER:
Degrading. Throttle load
and inspect within 30 min.
RED:
Unsafe. Controlled shutdown now.
Notify safety lead immediately.
Keep timing visible. This is a contract, not marketing.
18.4 Stamp generation fields
Build a one-line chain that proves “when, what, order.”
scheme: "SSMCLOCK1"
utc_ts: "2025-10-31T14:05:22Z"
anchor: "θ=132.77" # physical/positional/phase anchor
content_hash: "sha256=9fde1c..."
prev_hash: "72af0b..."
Notes: scheme identifies how to verify; utc_ts avoids TZ disputes; anchor ties to physical reality; content_hash covers value/align/band/manifest_id (+ critical context); prev_hash creates the chain (gaps = evidence).
18.5 Field glossary (short form)
• value — unaltered truth lane (raw m). Examples: cash_collected_usd, temperature_K, V_rms, model_score.
• align — bounded trust/stability dial; computed with:a_c := clamp(a_raw, -1+eps_a, +1-eps_a) → u := atanh(a_c) → U += w*u; W += w → align := tanh( U / max(W, eps_w) ).
• band — human/operational stance now (e.g., “GREEN”, “AMBER”, “RED”, “AUTO-EXECUTE”, “HUMAN-REVIEW”, “A++”, “A-“).
• manifest_id — unique policy anchor (math, cutpoints, actions, timing, assumptions, versioned).
• stamp — integrity + time + order line like "SSMCLOCK1|...|θ=...|sha256=...|prev=...".
• eps_a, eps_w — small stabilizers (edge clamp, div-by-zero guard).
• U, W — order-invariant accumulators; shard-mergeable.
• phi((m,a)) = m — collapse parity: truth is always recoverable.
• θ (theta) — positional/phase anchor used in stamping.
18.6 Pointers to appendix artifacts
• Band-Card Template — declare bands → actions → timing → disclosure.
• Manifest JSON Starter — portable contract for computation/bands/escalation/chain policy.
• Edge Fixed-Point Guide — Q-formats, LUT+poly for atanh/tanh, tolerances.
One-line takeaway for Section 18
SSMDE provides copy-ready shapes — record, manifest, bands, stamp, glossary — so any team can emit truth (value) + stability (align) + policy (band/manifest_id) + proof (stamp) as plain ASCII today.
