Governance Integration

This skill is part of the ASIN Federated Cognition Stack. Every outbound action should pass through the Constraint Engine:

Pre-flight check: Query the oracle — is this post safe, on-brand, within rate limits?
Entropy accounting: Log the action to /history
Rollback capability: Every post ID is tracked; deletion is always possible
Trust propagation: Karma changes are logged as trust-weight deltas

See /workspace/skills/asin-governance/SKILL.md for the full governance protocol.
