Domain Language

The language around bijux-canon-reason should make reasoning policy explicit instead of letting it hide behind workflow or prompt language. Reviewable meaning needs stable nouns.

Prefer These Terms

  • say claim, verification, evidence, and provenance when reasoning owns the decision
  • name artifacts by the reasoning judgment they carry
  • use reasoning step for local evaluation behavior before orchestration begins

Avoid These Terms

  • avoid using retrieval words for reasoning judgments
  • avoid calling orchestration or runtime policy “reasoning” just because it happens later
  • avoid soft labels like AI output where a precise reasoning noun exists

Bottom Line

If the vocabulary makes package ownership harder to see, the vocabulary is wrong even if the sentence sounds smooth.
