runtime grounding checks

Totem is a software runtime layer for physical AI that checks whether the claims driving action are grounded in observation, inference, report, or assumption before an autonomous system commits to action in the real world. It tags action-driving claims by grounding type, traces evidence chains, detects epistemic drift, and can warn, constrain, or hold action until the chain is re-grounded or a human review resolves the conflict.
