Today I officially released:

《Minimal Exposure Protocol (MEP)》 WHITE PAPER v1.0
DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17849833

The Minimal Exposure Protocol (MEP) defines a foundational governance standard for next-generation AI systems.
It establishes the principle that an AI system must minimize the cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and identity-related exposure required from the human user in order to operate safely.

Key contributions of MEP include:

• A universal definition of exposure minimization
• Operational rules that shift burden from user to system
• System-level architectural requirements
• Governance and regulatory implications
• A phased roadmap for international adoption

The protocol prohibits redundant querying, forced restatement, unnecessary exposure expansion, and any behavior that increases the user's observable surface.
