Add TRIZEL_PIPELINE_DOSSIER_V1.md — Layer-0 pipeline governance artifact

[Copilot]

Adds the canonical Layer-0 governance document defining pipeline rules for ingestion, generation, validation, and presentation across TRIZEL Layer-1 and Layer-2.

TRIZEL DIRECTIVE Compliance Checklist

Repository: trizel-ai/trizel-core
Layer: 0 — Governance & Charter

---

1. Repository Role Acknowledgment

Single-sentence role:
This repository is the canonical governance and charter authority that defines epistemic boundaries, layer separation rules, and structural principles for the entire TRIZEL ecosystem, and contains no data, execution logic, or analytical content.

---

2. Allowed/Forbidden Boundaries

Allowed in this repository:

• Governance policy text and procedural definitions
• Epistemic boundary specifications (layer definitions, separation rules)
• Repository classification standards and role registries
• Publication policy definitions
• Structural principles and constitutional framework
• Non-executable documentation about TRIZEL system architecture

Forbidden in this repository:

• Scientific data, datasets, or observational records
• Executable code, algorithms, or computational logic
• Analysis results, statistical outputs, or derived metrics
• Models, predictions, or inference artifacts
• Interpretive claims or theoretical conclusions
• Deprecated terminology (STOE, V12-V22, versioned system labels)

---

3. TRIZEL DIRECTIVE Compliance

• Deprecated terms check: PASS (no STOE, V12-V22, versioned system labels, or theoretical lineage labels)
• Cross-layer transfer check: PASS (no execution, analysis, or data content added)
• Publication rule check: PASS (if website-related, uses allowlist-only approach)
• Algorithm name check: PASS (only "AUTO DZ ACT" used, no variants)

---

4. Minimal Diff Plan

Files to change:

• TRIZEL_PIPELINE_DOSSIER_V1.md — new file, root of repo

Exact edits:

• Single new Markdown file; 11 sections covering scope, epistemic principle, data lifecycle, generator authority, validator constraints, observation state model, presentation rules, CI guarantees, multilingual constraints, epistemic guarantee, and non-activation clause

Rationale:

• Formalises pipeline governance rules currently undocumented at Layer-0; no code, data, or analysis introduced; strictly within governance scope

Tests/checks:

• CI checks pass (deprecated terms, governance validation)
• All markdown files valid
• No executable code introduced
• No data files introduced
• Documentation builds successfully (if applicable)

Rollback plan:

• git revert the single commit or git rm TRIZEL_PIPELINE_DOSSIER_V1.md; no downstream impact

---

5. Output/Schema Impact Assessment

Does this PR change any output contracts or schemas?

• No schema changes
• Yes — schema changes included (complete section below)

---

6. Layer 0 Boundary Verification

• Changes contain only governance content
• No execution logic added
• No data or analysis added
• No interpretation or theoretical claims added
• Documentation is non-interpretive

---

7. Version and Provenance

Version impact:

• No version change needed (typo fix, clarification)
• Minor version bump needed (new governance document, non-breaking addition)
• Major version bump needed (breaking change to governance structure)

Provenance metadata:

• Document version updated (if applicable)
• Effective date updated (if applicable)
• Changelog updated (if applicable)

---

8. Publication Readiness

Are any changes intended for website publication?

• No
• Yes — complete section below

9. Review Checklist

Self-review completed:

• All files reviewed for deprecated terms
• All files reviewed for cross-layer violations
• All changes aligned with TRIZEL DIRECTIVE
• Commit messages are clear and accurate
• No temporary files or build artifacts included

Documentation updated:

• README.md updated (if needed)
• GOVERNANCE.md updated (if needed)
• Related governance docs updated (if needed)
• No documentation conflicts or inconsistencies

---

10. CI/CD Validation

• Deprecated terms check: PASSING
• Governance validation check: PASSING
• All CI workflows: PASSING
• No new workflow failures introduced

---

11. Stop Condition Check

Confirm none of these stop conditions are triggered:

• No deprecated terms introduced
• No website ingestion of raw/unvalidated material proposed
• No governance text added outside trizel-core
• No interpretation written into governance docs
• No schema changes without consumer updates
• No layer collapse or boundary violations

---

12. Additional Context

Description of changes:
Introduces TRIZEL_PIPELINE_DOSSIER_V1.md — a Layer-0 governance artifact that codifies the operational rules for the TRIZEL data pipeline. Covers generator authority (single source of truth: scripts/build_observations.py), read-only validator enforcement, observation state model (ok / scheduled / not_released / unavailable), Layer-2 presentation constraints, CI determinism requirements, multilingual constraints (EN/AR/FR/ZH), and the epistemic guarantee separating structure from evidence. Explicitly non-executable; does not activate Gate-6.

Related issues:
N/A

Breaking changes:
None.

Testing performed:
Markdown linted; no code paths affected.
