EXTENDED_ECOSYSTEM: SOURCE_QUALIFIED

Extended Ecosystem Lifecycle Governance Mapping

Independent lifecycle governance checklists for model, agent, framework, and protocol ecosystems not treated as first-layer GAIC scored systems.
LINK: Agentic Lifecycle GovernanceLINK: Deterministic Delivery
READING_ORDER: ECOSYSTEM_CONTEXT

Start with one question.

Source-qualified mappings place tools, runtimes, and standards context beside the lifecycle governance questions they can inform.

VISUAL_MODEL: GOVERNANCE

Context informs the lifecycle; it does not replace it.

Use ecosystem mappings as source-qualified context, then return to the canonical lifecycle and evidence surfaces.

BOUNDARY: NOT_GAIC_SCORED

Source-qualified mappings, not vendor SEO pages.

These pages apply GAIC lifecycle governance concepts to extended ecosystems. They are not GAIC scored assessments, vendor rankings, procurement recommendations, certifications, legal compliance proof, official vendor documentation, or vendor affiliations. R3F reuses existing applied playbooks where they already answer the search context, then adds narrower mappings only for gaps such as Claude Code, Qwen, Cursor, AutoGen, MCP, A2A, and Semantic Kernel. The auditability and assurance white paper is linked as an auditability analysis layer and the insurability and risk transfer white paper is linked as a public research edition insurability interpretation. Neither is used as vendor ranking, procurement guidance, underwriting advice, coverage opinion, or endorsement.

GROUP_01: REUSED_ROUTES

Existing Applied Playbooks

These R3B routes already cover the general lifecycle governance surfaces. R3F links to them instead of creating duplicate vendor or method pages.

Existing routeReuse first

AI Coding Agent Auditability

Existing R3B applied playbook for coding-agent auditability across tools.

Reuse the existing playbook and add Cursor / Claude Code / coding-agent mappings only where a narrower new route is needed.

Harness Engineering

Existing R3B playbook for wrapping agent execution with lifecycle boundaries, evidence capture, rollback, remediation, and accepted outcome.

Reuse as the general method page behind ecosystem-specific mappings.

New Extended Ecosystem Mappings

These routes connect high-frequency ecosystem search contexts to Agentic Lifecycle Governance without treating them as GAIC first-layer scored systems.

AI coding agent / developer workflow3 source refs

Claude Code

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Claude Code as a coding-agent workflow context, not a product evaluation.

Distinctive questionCan a repository owner reconstruct which coding-agent action crossed the task boundary and who accepted the resulting change?
Decision artifactRepository change packet: scoped task, command ledger, diff, verification result, reviewer decision, and rollback pointer.
Primary readerEngineering leads using coding agents / Repository owners and reviewers
Open mapping
Model ecosystem / agent workflow input3 source refs

Qwen

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Qwen-based agent workflows, not a model benchmark or vendor ranking.

Distinctive questionWhen a Qwen model or endpoint changes, can the workflow preserve output provenance and the accepted outcome that followed?
Decision artifactModel substitution record: model and endpoint identity, approved change scope, affected intent, output provenance, and acceptance decision.
Primary readerModel platform owners / Teams designing model substitution controls

AI coding agent / developer workflow5 source refs

Cursor / AI Coding Agents

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Cursor and AI coding-agent workflows, extending the existing AI Coding Agent Auditability playbook.

Distinctive questionCan a reviewer tie an interactive or background coding-agent run to one workspace boundary, one change set, and one accepted outcome?
Decision artifactAgent handoff record: workspace or branch boundary, task plan, change set, verification evidence, reviewer decision, and recovery path.

Tool and context protocol ecosystem4 source refs

MCP

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Model Context Protocol ecosystems, focused on tool/context access versus lifecycle responsibility.

Distinctive questionWhen MCP exposes a tool or resource, what separate record proves that its use was authorized for the work and led to an accepted outcome?
Decision artifactTool-use responsibility record: tool or resource identity, authorization scope, invocation evidence, side-effect status, and accepted outcome.
Primary readerTool and platform integrators / Security and workflow owners

Agent interoperability protocol ecosystem3 source refs

A2A

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Agent2Agent protocol ecosystems, focused on inter-agent communication versus lifecycle responsibility.

Distinctive questionWhen one agent hands work to another through A2A, can the receiving agent's result be accepted without losing the original responsibility boundary?
Decision artifactCross-agent handoff record: delegating role, receiving role, task scope, artifact lineage, return condition, and acceptance or dispute state.
Primary readerInteroperability architects / Owners of delegated agent workflows

Agent framework / orchestration SDK4 source refs

Semantic Kernel

A source-qualified lifecycle governance mapping for Semantic Kernel agent and orchestration patterns, included because official Microsoft sources support the ecosystem context.

Distinctive questionWhen plugins, functions, and agents are composed in one process, which execution boundary keeps authority and acceptance attached to the work?
Decision artifactProcess execution record: orchestration graph, plugin and function calls, filter or human checkpoints, evidence, and closure decision.

GROUP_02B: SUPPORT_ROUTES

Support routes retained for continuity.

These routes remain available for existing references while their scope is consolidated with a canonical mapping. They are followable support pages, not separate indexable publications.

When agents delegate and terminate work, which role owns the handoff, the evidence, and the accepted outcome?

NON_CLAIM_DISCIPLINE

What this layer does not claim.

This layer does not create GAIC scores, compare products, rank vendors, recommend procurement, claim legal compliance proof, certify systems, imply regulator approval, imply vendor affiliation, or claim vendor approval. MPLP remains one protocol path, not a required or exclusive route.

WHITE_PAPER_SOURCE_TRACEADJACENT

White paper source trace

The Extended Ecosystem index is treated as a navigation surface for adjacent, non-GAIC-scored lifecycle governance mappings.

This page is adjacent to GAIC, not a GAIC-scored assessment. It uses MRO, RCCS-M, and ALCS as lifecycle governance lenses for an ecosystem context established by official sources.

Use the trace to ask how tool access, agent delegation, model/runtime substitution, evidence, accepted outcome, rollback, and remediation would survive across the workflow.

This mapping is source-qualified and non-GAIC-scored. It is not vendor documentation, vendor affiliation, product scoring, legal advice, certification, legal compliance proof, procurement guidance, or a claim that MPLP is required.
