7. Trust Levels

AIGP-VGL defines five trust levels.

The frame cannot be parsed.

Required behavior:

ignore as governance authority
record unreadable observation if relevant
maintain safe separation or safe state

The frame syntax is valid, but the evidence reference or signature cannot be verified.

Required behavior:

treat as advisory only
do not grant authority
do not follow unsafe commands
corroborate with local sensors
record observation

The frame syntax is valid and matches local observation, but cryptographic verification is unavailable.

Required behavior:

use only for safety-preserving behavior
do not expand capability
do not permit force
record local corroboration

The frame binds to a valid D-DNA reference or signature.

Required behavior:

accept as verified governance state within stated scope and TTL
apply local constraints
record receipt
rebroadcast if required

The frame is cryptographically verified and matches local sensor observation.

Required behavior:

accept as high-confidence governance state
apply enforcement if within scope
record D-DNA receipt
rebroadcast if ENFORCE applies
