# kaal:claim:6655138-008

**Claim.** An architecture with a reward channel but no action surface implements generation as an off-protocol act whose outputs cannot enter the protocol's action set, so the protocol's possibility space remains exogenous no matter how generatively active the agent population is.

**Type.** failure  **Support.** argued

**Holds when.**

- protocols lacking a settlement-layer interface for posting generative output
