NORMS

Canonical machine-readable contract

The inputSchema returned by MCP tools/list for assess_normative_reliance is the sole canonical public input contract. It declares required fields, enums, strict objects, reusable definitions and the purpose-specific as_of rules. Clients should validate against that schema before calling the tool.

NORMS assesses records already structured and ratified. It does not create those records.

blocking: [] is not authorization when unknown or unexamined remain.
