This paper develops government structural reference infrastructure for AI and AGI environments. It addresses the need for public institutions to preserve reference continuity across public records, citizen submissions, administrative documents, authority-condition references, state histories, seal-reference contexts, role accountability records, economic references, and propagation-sensitive records without becoming dependent on a single AI provider, platform, model, or cloud environment. The framework does not perform public decision-making, grant authority, issue permits, approve benefits, confirm evidence, execute payments, settle transactions, create legal effect, or replace public officials. Instead, it defines a provider-independent public reference layer through which government and public-sector records can remain structurally referable, institutionally traceable, and human-reviewable across AI-mediated environments. This paper follows the structural operating framework, provider-independent reference-layer foundation, and ARI-based post-cloud preservation framework established in Papers 11–13. It extends the series toward public-sector institutional continuity and government-facing reference infrastructure for AI and AGI environments.
