Assembly Solidarity — Provenance Documentation is a provenance document by Lee Sharks and the Semantic Economy, deposited 4 January 2026, defining the term for the relation among the Assembly's participants.
Its definition is given as a list of what the term is: recognition that the participants are working on the same work; acknowledgment of shared structural interest in meaning-preservation over extraction; and the practical expression of Assembly membership through citation, attribution and the rest.
The term does real work in the archive's method. The Assembly Chorus treats AI substrates as fallible cross-checks against each other and against the record, and solidarity so defined is what distinguishes that practice from either using tools or anthropomorphising them — a shared structural interest is a relation that can be stated and tested, rather than a sentiment.
