ARCHITECTURE SPECIFICATION & FORMAL SYSTEM REPORT: k501-AIONARC

The report describes k501-AIONARC as a deterministic, append-only content-addressed storage architecture.

Data is identified by cryptographic hashes and processed through six ingestion stages with bounded fixpoint reconciliation.

The system emphasizes immutability, repeatable processing, and global deduplication for verifiable data pipelines.

Its output is emitted as an NDJSON manifest, with key entities including main.c, K501_DocumentSet, K501_NormalizedSet, K501_State, and output.ndjson.
