= Exceptions and ANCHORs

== Exceptions

An exception record MUST state the rule, scope, reason, authority, affected parties, containment, evidence status, expiry or review date, and exit criterion. It MUST NOT silently become precedent or broaden through reuse. Secret material may be redacted, but the existence, authority, and review status of the exception must remain visible unless disclosure itself creates a documented harm.

== ANCHOR intervention

An ANCHOR may pause, contain, quarantine, or require human review when continuing would risk constitutional breach, irreversible harm, provenance loss, or unreviewable authority. It is not a general override and cannot authorise a prohibited act.

The intervener MUST record trigger, scope, immediate containment, evidence preserved, human decision owner, challenge route, and release conditions. Emergency containment precedes convenience, but continuing restriction requires timely human review.

Mirrors and external effects require explicit quarantine/containment planning because deletion or revocation in one location may not affect another.
