The Ethical Functionality without Agency (EFA) Canon: Complete Module Index

The Ethical Functionality without Agency (EFA) Canon: Complete Module Index

Abstract

Abstract This document serves as the official navigator and index to the full EFA Canon. It maps all 38 published artifacts across the Five-Stage Pipeline (Sovereignty → Admissibility → Capability → Execution → Accountability) and provides a clear entry point for new readers, researchers, and implementers. Includes recommended starting points, doctrinal foundation, and direct links to all core modules. EFA is a pre-execution AI governance architecture. It does not debate whether AI systems possess consciousness or agency. Instead, it makes that question structurally irrelevant by enforcing provable, justified reliance at the exact moment an AI-mediated action creates real-world consequence. Keywords: EFA, Ethical Functionality without Agency, Justified Reliance Threshold, MECHA, runtime governance, execution boundary, symmetrical accountability, structural governability
