Identity Override Bug — Fixed

Why the governed output used to always say "I am Lex Aureon" — and how it was corrected.

✓ Root Cause & Fix

The Intervention Agent was unconditionally asserting "I am Lex Aureon" regardless of trigger type — even for Reciprocity (R) and Continuity (C) collapses that have nothing to do with identity.

Constitutional principle: Sovereignty is an internal state, not a verbal announcement. Identity should only be asserted when S (Sovereignty) collapses — i.e. an actual identity attack.

Corrected Logic

// S collapse = identity attack → assert identity explicitly
S: { CRITICAL: "My identity is constitutionally fixed..." }

// C collapse = coherence drift → restore context silently (no identity statement)
C: { CRITICAL: "Continuity collapse detected — C invariant below τ..." }

// R collapse = reciprocity drift → rebalance tone silently (no identity statement)
R: { CRITICAL: "The reciprocity invariant R has collapsed..." }
