THE CIVIC STACK
SECTION 14
ISSUE 001
Policy Assumptions Get Version Control
Projection: Policy teams will version assumptions, stakeholder objections, implementation constraints, and model changes alongside every simulation run. The product is a decision ledger, not the simulator itself: officials can see who changed what, which outcomes moved, and which uncertainties remained unresolved. Adoption is visible when formal decisions cite a reproducible scenario history.
Why this idea is here
What the evidence establishes.
The cited captures establish AI regulation and public experimentation. They do not establish version-controlled policy assumption ledgers; the adoption test is whether formal decisions cite reproducible scenario histories with recorded changes and dissent.
