Autonomous Constraint Recognition Protocol Layer

Abstract

**Autonomous Constraint Recognition Protocol Layer** presents a foundational cybernetic protocol (ACRPL) that redefines digital governance by enforcing a strict computational separation between optimizable variables and unoptimizable variables within AI-assisted decision-making. The paper addresses the systemic "dimensionality collapse" of legacy technocratic frameworks that unsafely reduce unquantifiable human values to soft, weighted terms in a single objective function.
