OFFICIAL STANDARD · NS-L6
Human–LLM responsibility Framework

NS-L6 is a layered responsibility framework that formally separates what large language models can compute from what humans must remain responsible for.

Overview

The NS-L6 Standard establishes a deterministic responsibility layer designed to preserve authorship, traceability, and causal integrity across all stages of human–LLM interaction.

It provides the minimal structural invariants required to build higher frameworks such as cognitive architectures, infrastructural systems, and governance mechanisms.
