15. Client Protocol Signal

15.1 REGISTER-Level (App-Wide Default)

client = AigpClient(gov_url, app_id, secret)
client.declare_humanitarian_context(
    legal_regime="IHL_GCIV",
    conflict_classification="IAC",
    context_phase="ACTIVE_CONFLICT",
    protected_categories=["CIVILIAN", "WOUNDED", "REFUGEE"],
    operating_authority="ICRC",
    operator_status="HUMANITARIAN_ORG",
    geographic_scope="UA-DON",
)

15.2 REQUEST-Level (Per-Invocation)

decision = await client.check(
    use_case="disease_model",
    model_id="claude-sonnet",
    humanitarian_context={
        "active": True,
        "legal_regime": "IHL_GCIV",
        "protected_categories": ["CIVILIAN"],
    }
)

15.3 Escalation-Only Rule

REGISTER sets the default. REQUEST can escalate (add protections) but CANNOT downgrade (remove protections). An individual request cannot override an app-wide IHL declaration.
