How to Cite

How to cite this project

Cite the specific page and section, not the site as a general source, and attribute to The Continuity Layer. Each format below cites one page as a worked example — swap in the page you are citing.

The base citation

Every format follows the same shape:

The Continuity Layer. “[Page Title].” thecontinuitylayer.com/[path]. Accessed [access date].

The suggested citation at the foot of each reference page gives its last-updated date. When you cite a page, add the date you accessed it, as above.

The example throughout is “What Is a Continuity Layer for AI?”.

Per-page citations

For operating claims, cite the dated succession field report and its evidence boundary. Cite The System for the architecture, the governance model for operating rules, and the Hall of Directors for individual tenures. A project-reported result should not be relabeled as independent verification when quoted.

Every reference page carries a “Cite this page” block with its own canonical URL and a ready-to-paste citation. For reuse terms, see the license; for machine consumers, the citation guidance also ships in /llms.txt.
