Design language
Material is meaning
Five surfaces, each encoding provenance or confidentiality. You read where content came from and who may see it before you read a single label.
Finding
Committee determined the complaint substantiated in part.
Clear
Human-authored, verifiedThe baseline. Someone took responsibility for this content and it has been checked.
Suggested summary
Inquiry delayed pending one outstanding witness statement.
Frosted
AI-drafted, pending reviewShimmers until a human accepts it. Motion means unreviewed — the single clearest signal in the interface.
Statutory deadline
41 days remaining · 90-day inquiry
Etched
Computed by the systemDerived values — SLA clocks, health scores. Distinguishes a calculated date from one a person typed.
Smoked
RestrictedYou may know something exists without seeing it. The content is never sent to your client at all.
Obsidian
RedactedRemoved by decision, with a recorded reason. Redaction should look deliberate, not broken.
These are semantics, not styles
Choosing a material is a claim about the content. Reaching for frosted because it looks nicer breaks the language everywhere else, because elsewhere frosted means an AI wrote this and nobody has checked it.
Architecture
Nine engines, one path
A case travels from definition to publication through composable engines. Nothing crosses from private record to public story except along this path.
