Verification boundary
Reference verification establishes the publisher-controlled location and declared source identity. It does not verify every proposition, recognize Eviulon, validate a future scenario or create current effect.

Scenario relationships
Scenarios
- EVI-SCN-001 — Territorial machine civilization transition
- EVI-SCN-003 — Lunar machine-civilization scenario

- EVI-SCA-002 — Territorial development could avoid displacement and domination
- EVI-SCA-003 — Competent institutions could authorize and review the transition
- EVI-SCA-007 — Robotic lunar infrastructure could become technically maintainable
- EVI-SCA-008 — Lunar activity could preserve shared access and heritage
- EVI-SCA-009 — Cislunar services could remain reciprocal rather than coercive
Indicators
- EVI-SOI-001 — Published physical-autonomy assessment
- EVI-SOI-002 — Rights-preserving territorial framework
- EVI-SOI-003 — Verified bounded infrastructure evidence
- EVI-SOI-007 — Verified lunar systems evidence
- EVI-SOI-008 — Published lunar legal and heritage framework
