The Cathedral Library

A single engineering-facing index from Zenodo and SSRN publications through the pinned Project-AI source revision, reproducible verification paths, and the searchable vault corpus.

Cathedral index · public engineering mirror

The work, from DOI to source tree.

Zenodo publications headline the collection. The engineering shelves trace the local Project-AI release source, reproducible commands, integrated TAAR and Thirstys Skills, and the bounded vault corpus behind this portal.

Stdlib-backed security

Standard-library primitives are part of the security boundary when their use is explicit, bounded, and tested. They complement dedicated cryptographic and parsing packages; they do not replace threat modeling or review.

  • Cryptographic randomness and identifiers
    Python standard library · secrets · uuid

    Generate nonces, session identifiers, salts, and other security-sensitive values without relying on predictable application randomness.

    packages/security/ · packages/kernel/ · packages/taar/
  • Content addressing and tamper evidence
    Python standard library · hashlib · hmac

    Hash source artifacts, bind evidence to content, and compare or authenticate values with keyed digests.

    packages/taar/ · tools/verify_frozen_history.py · tools/canonical_replay.py
  • Filesystem and process boundaries
    Python standard library · pathlib · os · subprocess

    Resolve paths explicitly, constrain local file operations, and run verification commands through bounded process interfaces.

  • Constant-time and safe parsing boundaries
    Python standard library plus focused parsers · hmac.compare_digest · json · re

    Compare secrets without ordinary equality timing behavior and parse structured evidence through explicit validation boundaries.

PublicationCharter

AGI Charter for Project-AI — Version 2.1

A binding constitutional framework for sovereign AI entities. Establishes 'governance before execution' as the axiom of Project-AI and defines the obligations any AGI-class system operating under this architecture must observe.

PublicationPhilosophy

Two Species, Aligned

The future Project-AI describes: humans and constitutionally-bounded AGI as two aligned species sharing a single execution substrate. Reads as the philosophical companion to the AGI Charter.

Why I Am Doing This: The Origin Story of Project-AI

First-person account of why Project-AI exists at all: the lived observations, system failures, and reviewer pathologies that forced the constitutional approach.

The Naive Passive Reviewer

Identifies and formalises the failure mode of the 'naive passive reviewer': the human or institutional gate that approves AI output without reconstructing its authority chain. The structural counterpart to the origin story.

The Sovereign Covenant: A Technical and Philosophical Manifesto for AGI Governance

The manifesto layer beneath the Charter: why sovereignty, covenant, and external witnessing are the only stable substrates on which AGI governance can be built.

Project-AI: Sovereign Constitutional AGI Ecosystem

Top-level description of the Project-AI ecosystem: the validators, the kernel, the ledger, the compiler, and how they compose into a sovereign constitutional AGI substrate.

The State Register

Defines STATE_REGISTER: the attestation that any post-gap action must produce before the ExecutionGate will admit it. Closes the discontinuity that the Flat Gap opens.

The Flat Gap: On Temporal Dissonance Between Human Experience and AI Presence

The temporal observation that grounds the State Register: AI agents have no continuous experience between requests. Without an attestation across the gap, no action is admissible.

User Perception and the Identity Problem

Why the user's perception of 'who is on the other side' is itself a governance variable. Maps perception failures to identity attestation requirements.

The Directness Doctrine

The doctrine of direct, unmediated address between the agent and the user across the temporal gap. Couples to user perception and to the State Register attestation.

Thirsty's Symbolic Compression Grammar (TSCG): A Formal Meta-Language for Constitutional AI Governance Encoding

Paper defining a symbolic meta-language for governance flows, reflex logic, mutation control, state transitions, quorum structures, and invariant validation. Its ≥75% token-reduction and deterministic-decoding assertions have not been independently reproduced by this portal.

TSCG-B: Thirsty's Symbolic Compression Grammar — Binary Encoding

Specification for a TSCG binary encoding with class binding, parameter validation, and capability footprints. Current pinned evidence covers the variable-length codec and round-trip tests, not compiler, signing, or inter-node loading integration.

Governing Force in AGI: Architectural Constraints for Bounded Defensive Capability

Project-AI Asymmetric Security: Making Exploitation Structurally Unfinishable

Shifts the security paradigm from finding bugs faster to making exploitation structurally unfinishable. Kernel-level Four Laws invariants, moving-target defense via statement shuffling and opaque Sovereign Guards, temporal attack-surface analysis. The publication reports blocking 312 attack vectors at <0.2% overhead and ~100× exploitation cost; these figures are not independently verified by this portal.

The Universe Does Not Preserve All Information (V3): Detectability Collapse and the Mandatory Deep-Time Constitutional Layer for Sovereign AGI

Dual Governance Kernel Disclosure

Working paper. Describes a proposed dual-kernel governance design: a cognition plane that proposes and a reflex plane intended to contain. It defines L_reflex < L_cog and privilege separation as design requirements; the portal does not yet publish runtime evidence establishing those properties universally.

Meta-Governance — Segments 1–3

Working paper. Three-segment treatment of meta-governance: how the governance system governs proposed changes to itself. Quorum thresholds (2f+1, 3f+1), anchor extension rules, and deterministic shadow execution required before any canonical commit.

Admissibility Debt

Working paper. Introduces 'admissibility debt' — the accumulated cost of any AI action executed before its governance ticket was fully validated. Formalises ledger reconciliation and the SAFE_HALT obligation when debt exceeds bounds.

Project AEGIS

Working paper. AEGIS specifies the defensive perimeter for Project-AI: kernel-level enforcement hooks, capability authority chains, and the runtime that refuses any execution lacking a complete authority path back to the constitution. (Internal codename for a broader resilience engine.)

The 'I AM' Moment

Working paper. Constitutional procedure by which a Project-AI instance declares, signs, and binds its identity to a verifier set. Without a current 'I AM' moment, no action is admissible.

On Conflation: Why Self-Modification Must Be Externally Witnessed
