Agenda Sovereignty Under No-Meta Drift

This work develops a scientific boundary theory of agenda sovereignty for autonomous intelligences operating under no-meta, observable-only governance.Agenda sovereignty is defined as the ability to keep control of one’s own priorities under external agenda pressure while simultaneously preserving semantic continuity, protected internal latitude, external-effect safety, queue/deadline obligations, and finite thermo-information resources. The paper introduces operational, audit-ready constructs: survival-conditioned causal influence metrics, normalized sovereignty reserves, overlap-corrected thermodynamic accounting, and reflexive/adversarial environment models. It derives formal limits and guarantees,…
