The Shatterdome Doctrine
Governing Open Agent Platforms Without Killing What Makes Them Useful
Prohibition fails. Openness without a harness also fails. The only stable position is the shatterdome: an open platform wrapped in the same five components, with governance built into the wiring rather than bolted on at the end.

Inside this volume
The Drift Protocol
In Pacific Rim, the Drift is not a feature of the Jaeger; it is the layer through which the Jaeger exists. Volume VI maps the same architecture onto Claude Agent SDK: hooks fire on every tool call, before and after; no path from intent to action avoids a governance surface. The harness is native, not a retrofit.
