The Model Governance Record
Clinical data has FHIR. Governance evidence has email threads. The MGR is an open, vendor-neutral JSON format for one model or agent's complete governed history — approval and baseline, monitoring entries, incidents, status transitions, the accountable human — portable between tools, auditable by anyone, yours rather than your vendor's.
The format
One MGR document per governed system. Four required blocks —
subject, accountability, approval
and the version marker — with monitoring, incidents, status history,
agent privileging (for systems that act) and optional hash-chain
integrity on top. The full JSON Schema:
mgr-v0.1.schema.json.
Reference validator
Paste an MGR document below. Validation is structural (required blocks, types, enums) and runs entirely in your browser.
Licence and governance of the standard
MGR is published under CC BY 4.0: use it, implement it, extend it, commercially or otherwise, with attribution. Versioning is semantic; v0.x may change with notice, v1.0 will freeze required blocks. Proposals and implementations: write to the Institute. HAI-OS exports and imports MGR natively.
