Technical Specifications¶

This section is the single source of truth for:

• Protocol definitions
• API contracts
• Cryptographic formats
• Consensus mechanisms
• Schemas and manifests

If a question starts with "Exactly how…", the answer should live here.

Specification Principles¶

All specifications in this section follow these rules:

1. Precision — Exact formats, no ambiguity
2. Versioning — Every spec includes version number
3. Reference Implementations — Link to canonical code
4. Test Cases — Include validation examples
5. Backwards Compatibility — Note breaking changes explicitly

Key Specifications¶

MASL (Model-Agnostic Sovereignty Layer)
Enables any LLM to board Mobius by calling /api/mobius/mount, which returns: - .mobius/atlas.manifest.json — System state & integrity - .mobius/biodna.json — Identity DNA - .mobius/virtue_accords.yaml — Moral & civic laws - mii_signature — Cryptographic integrity proof

Deliberation Proof
Cryptographic attestation that multi-agent consensus was achieved under constitutional constraints. Includes: - Sentinel votes - GI scores - Constitutional compliance checks - Timestamp and cycle number

Supersede Protocol
Knowledge evolution system allowing verified improvements to replace outdated information while preserving history (Kintsugi principle).

Specification Status¶

Using These Specifications¶

For Implementers:
These specs are contractual — implementations must match exactly.

For Integrators:
Use these to build compatible services or connect external systems.

For Researchers:
These provide formal definitions for academic analysis.
