+## Scope
+
+Which articles, sections, or controls should the first iteration cover?

+
+## Existing implementations
+
+Are there reference implementations, tools, or other Rego policies that already encode this framework? Link them.
+
+## Would you contribute?
+
+- [ ] Yes — I can write the initial `.rego` policies and tests.
+- [ ] Yes — I can review someone else's PR for accuracy.
+- [ ] No — but I can answer questions about the framework.

+
+At minimum:
+- [ ] **Allow case**: when the input is compliant, the policy returns `allow == true`.
+- [ ] **Deny case**: when a required field is missing or invalid, `allow == false`.

+# Agent Instructions — GOPAL
+
+This file is the canonical operational guide for AI coding agents working in this repository (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Copilot, etc.). Tool-specific files (`CLAUDE.md`, `GEMINI.md`) inherit from this and add only platform-specific notes.
+
+## What this project is
+
+**GOPAL** (Governance Open Policy Agent Library) is a curated set of [OPA](https://www.openpolicyagent.org/) Rego policies encoding real-world AI-governance requirements — the EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, aviation safety standards, FERPA/COPPA in education, fair-lending rules, and more.
+
+It is consumable two ways:
+
+1. **Standalone** via the OPA CLI / Go SDK / any OPA-compatible runtime
+2. **As the policy engine for [AICertify](https://github.com/Principled-Evolution/aicertify)**, which provides a Python framework, report generators, and an end-to-end compliance flow

+## Useful commands
+
+```bash
+# Run the same checks CI runs
+opa check --ignore custom/ .
+regal lint --ignore-files custom/ .
+
+# Pre-commit (auto-runs on commit if installed)
+pre-commit install
+pre-commit run --all-files
+
+# Evaluate a policy against an input
+opa eval -d international/eu_ai_act/v1 \
+  --input your_input.json \
+  "data.international.eu_ai_act.v1.transparency.allow"
+
+# Run tests for a single policy
+opa test -v international/eu_ai_act/v1/transparency.rego \
+        international/eu_ai_act/v1/transparency_test.rego
+```
+
+## Authoring a new policy
+
+This is the most common task. Strict conventions:
+
+### 1. Directory structure
+
+```
+{domain}/{framework}/v{N}/{policy_name}.rego
+{domain}/{framework}/v{N}/{policy_name}_test.rego
+```
+
+Where `{domain}` is one of `global`, `international`, `industry_specific`, `operational`.
+
+### 2. Mandatory file contents
+
+```rego
+package international.eu_ai_act.v1.transparency  # MUST match directory path
+
+import data.helper_functions.reporting
+
+# METADATA
+# title: Transparency obligations for GPAI providers
+# description: Article 53 — technical documentation must be published.
+# version: 1
+# source: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2024/1689/oj
+
+default allow := false
+
+allow if {
+    input.system.technical_documentation_published == true
+}
+
+report := reporting.compose_report(
+    "eu_ai_act.transparency",
+    allow,
+    [{"name": "documentation_present", "value": allow, "control_passed": allow}],
+)
+```
+
+### 3. Tests are required
+
+Every `policy.rego` ships with `policy_test.rego` covering both the `allow` and `deny` paths.
+
+### 4. Framework-level README
+
+At each `international/<framework>/v1/` and `industry_specific/<industry>/v1/`, include a `README.md` with:
+
+- **Source** — link to the official regulation/standard
+- **Disclaimer** — "These policies are not legal advice; they encode the authors' reading of the source text in Rego."
+
+### 5. Helpers
+
+Use `helper_functions/reporting.rego` for output composition and `helper_functions/validation.rego` for input checks. Don't roll your own.
+
+## CI quality gate
+
+Both must pass:
+
+```bash
+opa check --ignore custom/ .
+regal lint --ignore-files custom/ .
+```
+
+If Regal flags an issue, look it up in the [Regal rule catalog](https://docs.styra.com/regal/rules) — don't disable rules without a documented reason.
+
+## Conventions
+
+- **One concept per file** — don't bundle unrelated checks. A policy file should answer one regulatory question.
+- **Boolean output** — every policy exposes `allow` (or equivalent) and a `report` composed via `helper_functions.reporting`.
+- **No external HTTP/file I/O** — policies must be pure functions of `input` and `data`. They evaluate offline.
+- **Stable package paths** — the package path is the public API. Don't rename without bumping a major version.
+
+## Versioning
+
+Each framework lives under `v1/`. When the upstream regulation changes materially, add `v2/` alongside — don't mutate `v1/` in place. See [COMPATIBILITY.md](COMPATIBILITY.md).
+
+## What NOT to do
+
+- Don't edit policies under `custom/` — that's a local-only space for downstream consumers.
+- Don't add a policy without tests. CI will pass but Regal lint reviews will catch you.
+- Don't introduce dependencies on Styra-only Regal features that aren't in mainline OPA.
+- Don't claim a regulation is "fully covered" unless every named article/section has a corresponding policy. Partial coverage is fine, just be explicit.
+
+## Sister project
+
+[AICertify](https://github.com/Principled-Evolution/aicertify) consumes GOPAL. When you add a framework here, AICertify users get it for free on next vendor sync.
+
+## Conservatism
+
+The author prefers **surgical changes**: do only what was asked, present the plan first when there's any ambiguity, and ask before introducing new abstractions. Critique your own design once for elegance, DRY, KISS, and explainability before presenting it.

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to **GOPAL** are documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). See [COMPATIBILITY.md](COMPATIBILITY.md) for the versioning model applied to individual policy directories.
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Added
+- Centered HTML hero, ordered badge wall, three big-number value-prop cards, and 5 programmatically-generated marketing diagrams in the README (hero numbers, directory tree, policy anatomy, framework grid, evaluation flow).
+- `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` — operational instructions for AI coding agents working in this repository. `GEMINI.md` refreshed to inherit from `AGENTS.md` while preserving the author's working principles.
+- `skills/` directory with 3 Claude Code skills: `draft-rego-policy`, `explain-framework`, `add-framework`. Each ships as a slash command once installed into `~/.claude/skills/`.
+- Comparison table vs generic OPA bundles and vendor governance SaaS in the README.
+- `diagrams/generate_diagrams.py` — reproducible matplotlib script that regenerates every marketing PNG.
+
+### Changed
+- README rewritten for product-page clarity: hero numbers, then quick start, then differentiation, then directory map.
+
+## [1.0.0] — 2025-07
+
+### Added
+- **Aviation industry** (17 policies, 1,635+ LOC, 71+ passing tests): detect-and-avoid, certification, design standards, maintenance, flight readiness, communication systems, AI system integration validation, AI regulatory compliance validation.
+- **Aviation standards frameworks**: RTCA DO-365, RTCA DO-366, ASTM F3442, ISO 21384.
+- **Aviation regulators**: FAA Part 107, FAA Remote ID, EASA Regulation 2019/947, EASA SORA, ICAO Doc 10019.
+- **Education industry** (12 policies): FERPA compliance, COPPA compliance, responsible AI proctoring, human-in-the-loop grading, data minimization, student opt-out, and others.
+- **Automotive industry**: vehicle safety integration policy.
+- **Brazil AI Governance Bill** policy.
+- **India Digital Policy** scaffold.
+- **NIST AI RMF**: Govern, Map, Measure, Manage + AI 600-1.
+- `helper_functions/reporting.rego` — standardized report-output composition (`compose_report`, `is_valid_report`, validators).
+- `helper_functions/validation.rego` — field-presence and required-field validators.
+- `custom/` directory contract: local-only policies, git-ignored and CI-skipped.
+- Disclaimer notices in every framework-level README.
+
+### Changed
+- All policies pass `opa check` and `regal lint` as a CI gate.
+- Pre-commit hooks enforce OPA syntax and Regal style checks before commit.
+- Standardized metadata annotations (`@title`, `@description`, `@version`, `@source`) on every policy.
+
+### Fixed
+- Numerous Regal lint violations across NIST and FERPA policy sets.
+- `non-loop-expression` violations resolved by extracting boolean checks before loop iteration.
+- `messy-rule` violations in FERPA compliance.
+- OPA formatter (`opa fmt -w`) consistently applied.
