Canonical curriculum
Drafting may use AI under a bounded task graph. Separate factual, solution, pedagogical, and accessibility checks retain failed findings. An accountable human publisher creates the immutable release.
Tutor behavior
The field guide retrieves the current lesson, one-hop graph neighborhood, relevant misconceptions, recent evidence, and only private sources the learner selected. Check mode may not reveal an answer before submission.
Personal drafts
Subscriber-generated courses and project plans are private and visibly labeled Personal AI draft. They cannot enter the canonical graph without the complete staff review pipeline.
Free account boundary
Free accounts generate exactly $0 in Ephemerent-funded model usage. There are no complimentary hosted turns or automatic fallbacks from local/BYOK routes to a paid provider.
