Concepts

Apothem concepts — the ideas behind the tool: host-agnostic posture, cognitive identity, audit review, and seriousness tiers.

Apothem is built on a handful of design ideas. This section explains them — why governance is platform-agnostic, how long-running work survives session and machine boundaries, how the assistant collaborator is framed, what the audit review sequence guarantees, and how governance overhead scales to the engagement.
