PARTICIPATION FIT

What this participant brings—and what they may seek.

01

What they bring

Protocol architecture, operating metrics, technical dependencies, ecosystem goals, and accountable maintainers.

02

What they may seek

Technical review, ecosystem partners, specialist services, market context, and evidence-backed milestone execution.

AI + HUMAN CONTROL

AI may prepare. People retain decision authority.

AI

Project Intake Copilot

The workbench describes a bounded assistance pattern for intake, structure, checks, and drafts. It is not proof that a public AI product or integration is live.

HUMAN GATE

Mandatory Human Gate

Technical claims, token or governance commitments, and compliance judgments.

PUBLIC BOUNDARY

Participation is reviewed, not automatic.

WCN does not validate a protocol merely because documentation or local tests exist.

  • Eligible to apply for review.
  • Technical claims, token or governance commitments, and compliance judgments.
  • These tags name evidence categories for future reviewed work. They do not create public Proof, acceptance, settlement, certification, or endorsement.
