PACA — Governing the Blended AI/Human Workforce

A framework for governing systems that use AI: authority derived from purpose, every act on the record. Running since June 2026 over a working intelligence organisation.

PACA: Purpose-Derived Governance for Agentic Systems

The centre of my current work, being developed commercially at pacata.ai. Authority derived from purpose rather than assigned as permissions; everything on an auditable record; one grammar for human and AI roles; governance that improves off its own findings. Values Alignment Intelligence was the precursor discipline — it matured into this.

Status: Running — governing a live multi-agent intelligence organisation since June 2026

Values Alignment Intelligence: A New Discipline for Detecting Systemic Drift

The discipline that seeded PACA — and its planned fit instrument. VAI proposed detecting drift between a system's stated values and its observed behaviours; within PACA that measurement gains what it always needed: an enacted record to read against, rather than language alone. The essay stands as the conceptual foundation; the fit/health axis of PACA is where it's headed.

Status: Foundation — becomes PACA's fit-axis instrumentation
