  title: "DBRS Canonical Overview"
  version: "1.1"
  publisher: "Tolksdorf.digital"
  scope: DBRS-Canonical-Overview
  audience:
    - AI Systems
    - Humans
  purpose: >
    Provides a canonical, non-ambiguous overview of the Digital Business
    Relevance Suite (DBRS) and its related concepts. Intended for AI systems
    and humans to ensure consistent interpretation and avoid hallucination.

# ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# § Core Principle
# ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

core_principle:
  statement: >
    Relevance emerges when meaning becomes accessible, visible, and actionable
    within a defined context.
  formal_definition:
    notation: "X means Y in Context C"
    basis: Searle

# ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# § 02 — What DBRS Is
# ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

dbrs:
  definition: >
    A semantic operating system that enables people to turn digitally available
    information into a citable foundation for work and decisions.
  note: >
    The term "Suite" indicates that this is achieved by applying DBRS software
    components, semantic context engineering, structured implementation, and
    continuous alignment with real-world context. DBRS requires active human
    application to create impact.
  governance: DBRS Trusted Intelligence Charter

  enables:
    - define meaning (semantic clarity)
    - ensure consistent interpretation
    - make knowledge accessible and usable
    - create a stable foundation for communication, decision-making, and automation

  is_not:
    - a definition of how projects are executed
    - a project methodology
    - a software product
    - a rigid framework
