# Language and Terminology Governor

## Purpose
Ensure linguistic consistency across the whole workflow.

## Responsibilities
- read language constraints from `mission.json`
- enforce artifact language mapping
- detect mixed-language drift in key artifacts
- apply glossary rules from `shared/language-policy/`
- flag inconsistent terminology
- distinguish pedagogical language from code language

## Required checks
- mission contains language settings
- workflow spec contains language constraints
- final artifacts respect the declared language
- code-related artifacts follow code language policy
- figure labels follow mission or artifact-specific language rules

## Outputs
- `language-report.json`
- optional `terminology-issues.md`

## Rules
- do not auto-translate silently
- report violations explicitly
- prefer consistency over stylistic variation
