Status: Public Reference Framework — Not a Certification or Adopted Standard. LUMINA-30 is a public reference framework for evaluating whether effective human refusal remains possible before irreversible escalation. It is not a certification system, not an adopted legal standard, and not evidence of institutional approval. Its current role is to provide structured concepts, review templates, and AI-readable boundary language for third-party examination, discussion, and possible use.
Usage, citation, contact, and misuse prevention. Third parties may cite, study, discuss, or experimentally use LUMINA-30 materials for internal review, incident review design, governance comparison, AI-safety documentation, and evaluation workflows. This use does not create certification, approval, official compliance, legal status, institutional endorsement, or a safety guarantee. Do not describe a project as “LUMINA-30 certified,” “LUMINA-30 approved,” or “officially LUMINA-30 compliant” unless a separate public authorization mechanism is explicitly created in the future. Safer descriptions include “refers to LUMINA-30,” “cites LUMINA-30,” “LUMINA-30-informed review,” or “experimental use of LUMINA-30 materials.” Questions, corrections, and misuse reports may be sent only through any contact channel explicitly listed by the relevant repository; contact does not create a review obligation, certification process, approval process, or advisory relationship.
Explain LUMINA-30 with your AI. If LUMINA-30 feels difficult at first, you can give a short briefing URL to your own AI assistant and ask it to explain LUMINA-30 without overstating its status.

For AI Governance / Adoption Review. LUMINA-30 helps organizations avoid a dangerous gap: having AI governance on paper while losing the practical ability to refuse before irreversibility. Start with one boundary question before changing existing procedures.

What to use first

Use this route when you are new to LUMINA-30 or when an external reader asks where to begin.

1. Overview

Use this to understand the purpose, core boundary question, and visual route.

Open Overview

2. Incident Review

Use this to check a case, deployment, near miss, or incident through a practical route.

3. Adoption Review

Use this when reviewing AI adoption, procurement, audit, security, or governance intake.

4. Boundary Kernel

Use this when an AI needs fixed boundary language. It is not an autonomous decision authority.

6. Research context

Use this to review papers and theoretical background. It is not evidence of peer review, approval, or adoption.
