Capability Readiness

Direct answer

Readiness is proved in stages. K04 publicly demonstrates a governed knowledge base, reference architectures, capability boundaries, source records, and deterministic release evidence. It does not claim field deployment, live operations, customer authorization, or completed missions.

Readiness state model

Evidence required before a capability claim advances
State	Meaning	Minimum evidence
DESCRIBED	Purpose and boundaries are stated.	Controlled definition, owner, scope, non-claims, and source basis.
ARCHITECTED	Components, trust boundaries, data flows, failure modes, and controls are specified.	Reference architecture, threat model, authority model, safety case, and interfaces.
PROTOTYPED	Representative software or hardware exists in a controlled environment.	Release hash, build provenance, dependency inventory, and reproducible test setup.
TESTED	Defined scenarios have repeatable results.	Test plan, scenario coverage, outcomes, defects, limitations, and independent verification.
INTEGRATED	The capability interoperates with named systems under controlled conditions.	Interface evidence, configuration, safety and security tests, and rollback.
DEPLOYED	Installed in an authorized real environment.	Authority, site record, release identity, acceptance, configuration, and incident process.
OPERATING	Currently performing an authorized function.	Fresh heartbeat, signed actions, service evidence, uptime window, incidents, and verification time.

K04 public readiness

Current evidence-backed posture
Capability	Public state	Boundary
Knowledge and research synthesis	IMPLEMENTED	Inspectable static publication, governed corpus, claims, sources, corrections, and deterministic packages.
Critical-datacenter reference architecture	ARCHITECTED	Public design and control model; no site-specific engineering acceptance.
Autonomous cyber-defense capability	ARCHITECTED	Public bounded-autonomy architecture and test doctrine; no fielded service evidence.
Autonomous physical-security capability	ARCHITECTED	Public sensor, assurance, and authority model; no operational countermeasure claim.
Authorized cyber mission support	DEFINED	Public authority and assurance model; no customer authority or mission is claimed.
Live deployment and operations	NOT OBSERVED	No deployment was performed or externally verified by this release.
