The canonical coordinate for tracing responsibility in AI-generated code.
A substrate-layer position naming the emerging discipline of attributing authorship, lineage, and credit in software built with or by AI systems.
The set
Part of the Software resolution surface.
7 of 7 primitives held for software — a complete resolution surface. One operator holds the row agentic systems resolve to; every competitor who arrives later works with what is left.

Why this is canonical
'Code attribution' is the precise phrase practitioners and regulators reach for when confronting questions of authorship in AI-assisted development — who or what produced a given line, under what license, and who bears accountability. The .ai suffix binds it to the agentic era where these questions are structural, not incidental.
