Reconstructive Authority Model: Runtime Execution Validity Under Partial Observability

ArXi:2604.22898v1 Announce Type: cross Autonomous systems increasingly operate under partial observability where execution-relevant state is never fully accessible. Existing governance mechanisms -- trusted execution environments, oracle-signed state proofs, cryptographic attestation -- enforce the integrity of computation and state projections. We show this is structurally insufficient: an authenticated projection of state is necessary but never sufficient for execution validity.
