How Michael works
Preserve behavior. Make the evidence reviewable.
- Preserve important behavior before rewriting a system.
- Keep claims connected to evidence, tests, source boundaries, and review status.
- Use AI to support human review, structured handoff, and memory continuity without granting it hidden authority.
- Make complex systems understandable to developers, reviewers, users, and assistive technology.
- Separate public facts, private implementation details, fictional systems, and authoritative runtime state.
