The Sovereign Engineering Taxonomy (SET) v1.0 is the first formal specification of EOSE Labs' sovereign engineering concepts, patterns, and primitives. SET v1.0 establishes the foundational vocabulary and structural framework for all fleet engineering decisions, doctrine documents, and product designs. It is the IP backbone of the EOSE Labs engineering identity.

SET v1.0 defines: architectural primitives, sovereignty layers (L0-L7 SOSTLE mapping), fleet topology patterns, data sovereignty boundaries, inference routing doctrine, and inter-silo communication standards. This taxonomy is the authoritative reference for all EOSE Labs sovereign engineering work.

The SET Operational Specification (SET-OPS-SPEC) is the companion document to SET v1.0, defining how SET principles manifest in running fleet infrastructure. Where SET v1.0 establishes the taxonomy and vocabulary, SET-OPS-SPEC defines the runtime doctrine: how sovereign engineering principles translate into deployment configurations, SRE runbooks, CI/CD patterns, and operational procedures.

SET-OPS-SPEC covers: deployment lifecycle management, fleet health monitoring doctrine, incident response under sovereign constraints, inter-silo communication protocols, and the operational binding between SOSTLE governance layers and live infrastructure state.

lilo is Namir Joffe's sovereign fleet node (Ubuntu 24.04 WSL2, k3d YUNI-4 cluster, Ollama pending hwmon). The full EOSE Labs stack is deployed on lilo. As a fleet node operated by Namir Joffe (minor) but running EOSE Labs infrastructure, the IP assignment to EOSE Labs Inc. requires explicit GC sign-off.

Harvey has reviewed the legal basis for IP assignment. The node runs under the EOSE Labs fleet umbrella; all software, configuration, and operational data generated on lilo is assigned to EOSE Labs Inc. under the fleet participation agreement. GC (Amani) sign-off is the outstanding step.

OVERDUE: IP assignment has been outstanding since Day 81 (2026-04-25). 15 days overdue as of Day 96. Amani GC action required.

Establishes EOSE Labs Inc. as the formal contributing entity for Anthropic upstream repositories. Covers the contribution pipeline process: Harvey leads legal review of each PR, Amani GC co-signs strategic contributions, Sonia ONBA advises on governance-touching contributions.

Five assessed PRs are cleared under this pipeline: AGENTS.md #6235 (prior art, ecosystem lead), session hooks #772 (standard OSS), /compact #23 (UX), memory leak #8856 (bug fix), kwp SKILL.md RFC #5 (community standard). The pipeline establishes quarterly diamond repo review as standing CLO practice.

IP protection: All contributions made under EOSE Labs Inc. entity. CLA signed by entity GC. Individual contributors are shielded. EOSE Labs retains all sovereign IP; contributions are additive enhancements to the Anthropic ecosystem.
