rule action

CURIE: gmeow:ruleAction
IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/ruleAction
Category: property
Defined by: gmeow:slices/rights
Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The regulated action of a rule — one of the open gmeow:RightsAction values (odrl:action). Functional: a rule regulates exactly one action; several actions are several rules.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Rule -> gmeow:RightsAction; functional Sub-property of: gmeow:prescribedConduct

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:ruleAction from gmeow:Rule to gmeow:RightsAction when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Projection Coverage

Source	Kind	Profile	Predicate/Relation	Target	Evidence
`gmeow:ruleAction`	projection	`cc`	projects to / <=	cc:Attribution, cc:requires	`gmeow:mapCcRequiresAttribution`; confidence 0.8; lossy: the duty's assignee, constraints and rule identity drop; CC REL carries only the class-level requirement
`gmeow:ruleAction`	projection	`odrl`	projects to / <=	odrl:Duty, odrl:action, odrl:assignee, odrl:duty, odrl:target, rdf:type	`gmeow:mapOdrlPermissionDuty`; lossy: the permission's own odrl:constraint (e.g. temporal validity) does not propagate to the duty — ODRL 2.2 does not inherit a permission's constraints onto its duties, so the duty's constraint scope must be stated separately on the duty rule

Usage Advice

Use when

Use to name the single action a permission, prohibition, or duty regulates (the odrl:action) by pointing at a gmeow:RightsAction value.

Avoid when

Avoid giving one rule several actions (it is functional — model several regulated actions as several rules) and avoid a free-text action; reference or mint a gmeow:RightsAction individual.

How to use

Set gmeow:ruleAction once per rule (functional) to a gmeow:RightsAction; if the action is not among the seeds, mint a fresh value individual rather than reusing an ill-fitting one.

Examples

ex:mayReproduce gmeow:ruleAction gmeow:actionReproduce.
