Theoretical analysis demonstrates structural requirements for agent self-attribution across identity, integrity, and freedom, indicating that property typability depends on agent architecture.
An agent that reports on itself may be right, may be wrong, may lack the evidence to say - or may lack the internal structure that would make the report mean anything at all. We separate the third case from the fourth. An agent-relative property is typable when the structures its evaluation quantifies over are present in the agent's architecture; only a typable property has a verdict to be uncertain about. This is a typed integration interface applied to self-attribution; it is not a new free logic, not a new logic of de se, and not a new awareness logic. The paper's contributions are four. C1 - a typed account of self-attribution resting on three requirements (representational typability, information sufficiency, temporal certification) with an explicit dependency between them. C2 - a representational-extension result: adding a single structure can move a self-property from untypable to typed with world and evidence unchanged, a transition in the architecture alone (prop:repext). C3 - a reflexive-attribution result: the additional condition required for "r has property p" to become "I have property p" is a self-reference in the extended domain, distinct from computational reflection (cor:refl-attr). C4 - a comparative Identity / Integrity / Freedom witness family: three worked instances demonstrating that different selected self-properties can require different representational and informational support. A bounded remark connects the temporal axis to a refinement-confirmation certification layer (Bragetti, Zenodo 10.5281/zenodo.22028019) for attribution-support stabilisation under FG-persistence. --- SCOPE AND STATUS.
