This paper contextualises the ASM–OPEAX–S.P.I.A³ model as a governance architecture for human–AI co-agency in the Paradigm 5.0. The model integrates: (i) ASM, which defines roles, responsibilities, controls and traceability for agentic socio-technical systems; (ii) OPEAX, which structures the cognitive DNA of judgment through ontological, epistemic, axiological and pragmatic dimensions; and (iii) S.P.I.A³, which operationalizes generative action across spatial, polycentric and intelligent domains, enabled by anticipation, ambidexterity and antifragility. We discuss how the F.L.I.P. threshold serves as an inversion mechanism, converting complexity diagnosis into a generative transformation. The contribution is a coherent, multi-level device for governing the quality of judgment and value orientation toward the common good in innovation ecosystems and critical infrastructures under conditions of high interdependence.
