# E36 Architecture

```
MEMBERS -> MEMBERSHIP GOVERNANCE (epoch-bound) -> CAPABILITY COMPOSITION
  -> EFFECTIVE COLLECTIVE AUTHORITY (INTERSECTION default; never amplifies)
  -> COLLECTIVE INTEGRITY (depends on critical member integrity, via E35 CAIO refs)
  -> DELIBERATION (agreement) -> COLLECTIVE DECISION (agreement is NOT authorization)
  -> LOCAL AUTHORIZATION (explicit) -> COLLECTIVE GATE -> execution
  -> observation -> collective state update
```
Central invariant: collective intelligence may coordinate power but must never manufacture authority.
