✅ Article highlight: *Brownfield Migration Program for Institutional SI Adoption* (art-60-238, v0.1)
TL;DR:
This article argues that institutional SI adoption is not a rewrite fantasy. It is a governed migration program.
Most real institutions already have SaaS stacks, admin consoles, workflow engines, manual review paths, cron jobs, wrapper layers, and old authority surfaces still doing real work. So the question is not “how would we build an ideal SI-native platform from scratch?” The question is how to introduce governed SI structure **without lying about what still remains legacy**.

Why it matters:
• turns migration from roadmap theater into a governed program with evidence and exit criteria
• separates compatibility surfaces from actual replacement
• makes legacy exceptions explicit instead of burying them in implementation notes
• prevents institutions from claiming “SI-native enough” before the real authority paths have actually moved
What’s inside:
• a *migration wave plan* with scoped phases and wave-by-wave exit criteria
• a *compatibility surface register* for bridges, proxies, and legacy control/storage surfaces
• a *legacy exception register* that distinguishes *DEGRADE_ONLY*, *CLAIM_BLOCKING*, *TEMPORARY_ALLOWED*, and *RETIRE_REQUIRED*
• the rule that traffic percentage is not governance completion
• a bounded way to decide when the system is honest enough to support a stronger claim rung
Key idea:
Do not say:
*“we’re migrating toward SI.”*
Say:
*“this is our migration wave plan, these compatibility surfaces still remain, these legacy exceptions are classified and time-bounded, these exit criteria determine whether the next wave is actually complete, and this is the strongest claim we can honestly support while migration is still in progress.”*
