# OSS/TOP — Central Normative V7GUID Registry (GitCover)

This repository (`git.gitcover.org/OSS/TOP`, local `/mnt/brx5/work/OSS/TOP/`) is
the **central, normative single-source-of-truth (SSoT)** home for V7GUID
dictionaries that apply **across all GitCover tenant repos** following the
GitCover / GCBoK concepts. It is coordinated with **GCC** (all GitCover modules
share the same meaning).

> 🌐 **Languages:** [Deutsch (default, authoritative)](README.md) ·
> [English (translated)](README.en.md).
> Gitea serves the variant matching your UI language (bottom-right
> “Select Language”); the default fallback is the German file (`README.md`).

## `kind` + `status` (Layout v2)

`kinds.json` classifies the **art (kind) of a unit of work / activity** — a
general, tenant-agnostic classification (undertaking, research chapter, work
package, routine, workflow, case processing, administration, companion effort,
IP administration, governance duties, primary employment, grant application,
routine software, project continuation, contract research, own work). It is
**not** tied to any one tenant’s filings; jurisdiction-specific notes
(e.g. German tax law FZulG/BSFZ) are kept in the optional `jurisdiction_de`
field and do not change the normative primary meaning.

`status_flags.json` defines the 8 combinable **lifecycle flags** (planned /
approved / developed / validated / released / accepted / archived / reserved)
as an O(1) bitmask filter directly from the GUID (e.g. `status & 0x07 == 0x07`
≡ planned+approved+developed).

Both dictionaries are **bilingual** (`label_de` primary / `label_en`
translated).

- Spec: `GITCOVER_PROTOCOL/specs/v7guid/33_kind.md`, `…/34_status.md`

- Driver: `REPOS/AFJD/Tagebuch-Prompt.md`

## Git

- Object format: **SHA256** (`git init --object-format=sha256`).

## Consolidation (follow-up slice)

The L1–L6 dictionaries currently remain in the CFP tenant
(`REPOS/CFP/TOP/.gitcover/dictionaries/`). Their migration into this OSS tenant
is a follow-up slice; until then CFP is the source for L1–L6 and OSS is the
source for the new `kind` and `status` fields.
