| Research Type | Theoretical | We introduce and formalize a concept of a maintenance commitment, a kind of social commitment characterized by states whose truthhood an agent commits to maintain. By developing a rule-based operational semantics, we study the relationship between agents achievement and maintenance goals, achievement commitments, and maintenance commitments. We motivate a notion of coherence which captures alignment between an agents achievement and maintenance cognitive and social constructs, and prove that, under speciļ¬ed conditions, the goals and commitments of both rational agents individually and of a multiagent system are coherent. |

| Pseudocode | No | The paper describes rules (e.g., S-CREATE, A-CONSIDER) in a structured format with conditions and actions, but they are presented in prose and mathematical notation rather than as formal pseudocode blocks or algorithms. |
| Open Source Code | No | No explicit statement or link is provided for open-source code for the methodology described in the paper. |
| Open Datasets | No | The paper is theoretical and does not involve training models on datasets. The scenario presented in Section 7 is an illustration of the theory, not an empirical experiment with data. |
| Dataset Splits | No | The paper is theoretical and does not involve dataset splits for training, validation, or testing. |
| Hardware Specification | No | The paper is theoretical and does not describe empirical experiments that would require specific hardware specifications. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper is theoretical and does not specify software dependencies with version numbers for experimental setup. |
| Experiment Setup | No | The paper is theoretical and does not include empirical experiments with detailed setup configurations or hyperparameters. |
