      <abstract>
	 <t>   This document specifies Project Atlas, a backbone instrument in
   which a pipeline of autonomous software agents continuously holds a
   constellation of live web endpoints under measurement, attestation,
   and remediation, with every agent behavior conditioned and recorded
   under the Cognitive Behavioral Provenance and Integrity (CBPI)
   framework [I-D.reilly-cbpi].  Atlas defines eight agent roles
   (Resolver, Reachability, Integrity, Provenance, Conditioning
   Authority, Drift, Functional Behavior Assessment, and Sentinel), a
   hash-linked Operant Provenance Chain of epochs, hash-linked
   Reinforcement Event Records, a per-agent Behavioral Drift Index, and
   a dual authority model in which the instrument operates either fully
   autonomously or under human oversight through an operator decision
   queue.  A live reference instrument implementing this document is
   deployed and publicly reachable.
