+
+Documentation stub satisfying the **I5 invariant** enforced by [`arch-guard.yml`](https://github.com/gHashTag/trios/blob/main/.github/workflows/arch-guard.yml).
+The functional contract for this ring lives in its source files (`src/lib.rs`) and is exported through the parent crate facade. This stub exists so the constitutional CI gate guarding [EPIC #446](https://github.com/gHashTag/trios/issues/446) (Ring-Pattern Refactor) can pass while the canonical narrative is being written by the ring owner.
+
+## Status
+
+- Source: present
+- Tests: see crate-level `cargo test -p trios-a2a`
+- Owner-authored README: TODO (ticket: backfill prose under EPIC #446)
