Question before project name

AI research

The program is organized by what a system must do, not by whether an old project happened to contain the word AI.

Public state transfer, not hype

Formation Protocol Reaches the Build Threshold

Consequence -> retained distinction -> changed future selectivity. Two adversarial rounds have defined enough structure to build the smallest Formation Kernel that can prove the candidate mechanism wrong.

Formative Field

Hard admissibility, indexed susceptibility, sparse wake, graph-as-audit, and ablatable composition.

CANDIDATE RUNTIME

Developmental search

Exact cloning, divergent histories, reversal, recovery, transplant, ablation, and cross-host controls.

HCC, CIR, CRO, Consequential Fidelity, provenance, contradiction, and portable formed state.

Research Query, R2R promotion control, SERA, Address Regression, prior-art subtraction, and Formation Stream.

MIXED IMPLEMENTATION

Physical intelligence

ASF, PERCEPT, reference fabric, ConnectorDome, CNTM, and physical consequence sensing.

MIXED / OPTIONAL

Energy and compute

Energy reachability, dormancy, selective wake, distributed power traces, storage, and graceful degradation.

BRIDGE / TEST NEEDED

Distributed embodiment

Robotics, local authority, partition/rejoin, multiple embodiments, capability declaration, and formation transfer.

CANDIDATE PROGRAM

Security and integrity

Authority Compiler, Anti-Illogical, PIA, Guardian/RIGOR concepts, provenance, and fail-closed execution.

MIXED / BOUNDED

Non-obvious bridges found in the mining pass

The functional audit added Formation Stream, Authority Compiler, ASF, ConnectorDome, Research Query, Differential Dissolution Twin-History, Latent Role Intelligence, Ageometrics, and a distributed-power assay. It did not convert all energy, storage, or robotics work into AI. Flyshaft KESS remains adjacent only; Q* remains uncertain; the power assay remains data evidence without an AI conclusion.

A bridge is not a dependency. Energy may constrain reachable computation without being intelligence. A sensor fabric may support perception without authorizing action. A material may retain history without becoming a mind.
