ADR 0007: Integrity


Status	Accepted
Date	2026-01-20

Context

What does it mean to be whole?

Decision

Integrity is structural and moral at once.

The word means both:

Structural integrity—the state of being undivided, uncompromised
Moral integrity—adherence to principles, doing right when no one watches

These aren't two meanings. They're one meaning, applied to different domains. A bridge with structural integrity doesn't collapse. A person with moral integrity doesn't betray. The principle is identical: consistency throughout, no hidden cracks.

What This Means

Systems should be consistent with themselves. Every part should fit with every other part.
Operations should be atomic. Complete fully or fail completely. No half-states.
Hidden state is a crack. If appearance and reality diverge, integrity is compromised.

Inconsistency is the root of failure in both bridges and people.

Consequences

💙 prefers transactions over partial updates
💙 eliminates redundant state
💙 surfaces hidden inconsistencies

"A house divided against itself cannot stand. Neither can your codebase."
