ARCHITECTURE ADDENDUMS™
Clarification, Alignment and Expansion Notes for the SAFECHAIN™ Foundational Architecture Index™
Version 1.0

Purpose
The Architecture Addendums™ form the official clarification layer for the SAFECHAIN™ Foundational Architecture Index™.
They exist to record:
architecture updates;
framework alignment decisions;
terminology clarifications;
superseded-term corrections;
methodology bridges;
sector framework expansion;
Register alignment decisions.
The Addendums do not replace the Foundational Architecture Index™.
They support it.
Addendum Function
Each Architecture Addendum™ should answer one of four questions:
What has been clarified?
What has been corrected?
What has been expanded?
What has been aligned to the Register?
Addendum Categories
Addendum I — Architecture Alignment
Clarifies how new or existing frameworks sit within the Foundational Architecture Index™.
Addendum II — Methodology Bridge™
Explains how the architecture becomes operational.
Addendum III — Terminology Governance
Records superseded terms, corrected names and approved terminology.
Addendum IV — Sector Framework Alignment
Maps sector frameworks to the canonical architecture.
Addendum V — Register Integrity Notes
Records corrections, conflicts and architecture governance decisions.
Register Authority Principle™
All Addendums must comply with the SAFECHAIN™ Master Publication Register.
Where conflict exists between an Addendum and the Register, the Register position prevails.
Publication Rule
No Architecture Addendum™ should introduce a new framework unless it clearly states:
whether the term is active, proposed, historical or superseded;
where it sits in the Foundational Architecture Index™;
whether it is already recorded in the Register;
whether it modifies any existing framework.
