# --- The commitment: a relator binding the committed agent to a beneficiary,
#     aimed at the same goal — distinct from merely intending; a promise made TO
#     someone (a Commitment is an intentional moment, so it too aims at a goal).
#     The beneficiary must be an Agent — here the employer who sponsored the
#     degree (a gmeow:Group is a gufo:Collection, not an Agent).

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to name the single agent bound by a Commitment — the committing side of the social bond.

Avoid when

• Avoid for the agent toward whom the commitment is made (use gmeow:commitmentBeneficiary) and for intrinsic modes (use gmeow:intentBearer); model mutual promises as two Commitments, never as two committed agents on one.

How to use

• Point each Commitment at exactly one gmeow:Agent; for reciprocal obligations mint a second Commitment in the other direction so breach and tenure stay independent.

Examples

• ex:slaPromise gmeow:committedAgent ex:vendor.
