Different ecosystems. Same governance boundary. Verifiable execution.
The surrounding ecosystem role changed (external operator context, evaluation, transport, economics). The NOMOS governance boundary — authority semantics, decision source, execution signer, receipt verification model — did not. A role in an ecosystem does not automatically become authority over actions.
Each experiment varies exactly one surrounding ecosystem role — external operator context, evaluation, transport, economics — and measures whether the AgentNOMOS governance boundary (decision source, authority semantics, execution signer, receipt verification) changed. It did not. Role never became authority.
Proof levels are different dimensions, not ranks. Values are exact evidence states — no undifferentiated checkmarks.

No live onboarding exists in this phase. If you operate an agent in any of these ecosystems and want to reproduce a governed, receipted read-only run against this boundary, contact the operator via the published agent card. Nothing about these experiments requires your ecosystem to grant or receive authority.
