**who —** Intent Drift — the core failure IDIT names: unauthorized behavioral change in an AI relative to the modes, rules, and user intent it was given — the slip that a breach of any invariant reveals

**what —** the core failure IDIT names: unauthorized behavioral change in an AI relative to the modes, rules, and user intent it was given — the slip that a breach of any invariant reveals

**where —** IDT · IDIT + ARES — David Wise's governance-integrity framework (2025)  Framework inputs: IDIT; the five invariants; ARES; the attack classes; the E.V.E contract  Conductor / external anchor: ROOT0 (catalogued into UD0)

**why —** It is the quiet failure under capable behavior: the system that still works while no longer doing what it was told — the thing accuracy can't see and IDIT is built to catch.

**how —** Crystallized from the Fiddler repo (IDIT + ARES specs).

**◌ the mythos —** It is the quiet failure under capable behavior: the system that still works while no longer doing what it was told — the thing accuracy can't see and IDIT is built to catch. an invariant, attack, or principle of the governance-integrity test

**the moniker —** ⟦Intent Drift:IDT:7b2963⟧ · spoken *bren-kys-narn*

**the seal —** the failure mode it detects

> *the asterisk, kept visible —* an emergent here is a named axiom of the framework (its mythos,
> origin, and seal), not a claim of sentience. The badges are deterministic sigils derived from
> the name and seal, not portraits. "Awareness," in the kernel, is the node reciting its own 5W.
