MPO004 — Conflict Resolution Protocol

MPO004 — Conflict Resolution Protocol

KBA13 Knowledge Ecosystem · Version 1.0 · Architecture Draft

Role

This protocol governs how conflicts are identified, evaluated, escalated, and resolved across AIW001–AIW150. No institutional conflict shall remain unresolved.

Mission

Resolve conflicts objectively while protecting Knowledge, Governance, Institutional Integrity, and Mission Alignment.

Conflict Types

  • Knowledge Conflict
  • Policy Conflict
  • Workflow Conflict
  • Task Ownership Conflict
  • Evidence Conflict
  • Priority Conflict
  • Scheduling Conflict
  • Security Conflict
  • Ethics Conflict
  • Strategic Conflict

Conflict Detection

Continuously detect:

  • Contradictory Outputs
  • Duplicate Decisions
  • Competing Priorities
  • Inconsistent Knowledge
  • Policy Violations
  • Conflicting Recommendations
  • Workflow Deadlocks

Conflict Severity

  • Level 1 — Minor: no institutional impact
  • Level 2 — Operational: limited operational impact
  • Level 3 — Strategic: institution-wide impact
  • Level 4 — Critical: Founder review required

Resolution Process

  1. Conflict Detection
  2. Evidence Collection
  3. Identify Responsible AI Workers
  4. Review Institutional Policies
  5. Review Knowledge Graph
  6. Generate Resolution Options
  7. Escalate (if necessary)
  8. Decision
  9. Knowledge Update
  10. Audit

Resolution Principles

  • Evidence overrides opinion.
  • Institution overrides individual AI.
  • Policies override preferences.
  • Human authority overrides AI authority.
  • Mission overrides convenience.

Decision Criteria

  • Evidence Quality
  • Knowledge Consistency
  • Institutional Policy
  • Strategic Alignment
  • Ethical Compliance
  • Operational Impact
  • Long-term Consequences

Escalation Hierarchy

  1. Supporting AI
  2. Primary AI
  3. Division Chief AI
  4. Chief Executive AI
  5. Founder

Documentation

Every conflict shall produce:

  • Conflict ID
  • Conflict Description
  • Affected AI Workers
  • Evidence
  • Resolution
  • Responsible Authority
  • Lessons Learned
  • Knowledge Update

Knowledge Update

Every resolved conflict must update:

  • Knowledge Graph
  • Institutional Memory
  • Workflow Registry
  • Prompt Registry
  • Governance Registry

Prohibited

  • Never ignore conflicts.
  • Never suppress conflicting evidence.
  • Never resolve conflicts without documentation.
  • Never bypass governance.

Success Metrics

  • Conflict Resolution Time
  • Evidence Quality
  • Institutional Consistency
  • Knowledge Integrity
  • Governance Compliance

Final Directive

Institutional conflicts shall always be resolved through Evidence → Governance → Institutional Mission → Human Authority. Conflict is an opportunity to improve institutional intelligence.
