The Ethics Normalization Layer Specification defines an AGPL-3.0+ licensed framework for transforming selected moral interpretations into structured, transparent, and culturally neutral ethical representations. The specification provides operational guidelines for identifying ethical concepts and mapping them into standardized categories including empathy, justice, responsibility, honesty, courage, restraint, and forgiveness. It defines processes for generating ethical theme labels, semantic tags, abstraction summaries, confidence scores, and metadata while preserving the original meaning of a moral interpretation.
Designed for integration into ethical reasoning systems, AI governance platforms, research tools, and human-in-the-loop analysis workflows, the specification establishes safeguards against doctrinal bias, cultural overreach, and unsupported moral conclusions. It introduces cross-cultural neutrality mapping, version tracking, review workflows, and transparency requirements to ensure that ethical concepts can be analyzed and compared without replacing human judgment or promoting a single moral framework. The result is a reusable foundation for building accountable systems that represent moral ideas with clarity, traceability, and respect for diverse perspectives.
