MAP Documentation

Functional domains, not ranked. Identity, Cognition, Truth, Governance, Execution, Economic, Awareness.

Services are grouped into seven functional planes. The planes are functional, not ranked — Identity is not "more important" than Awareness. They are seven categories that together describe everything an institution needs.

I — Identity

Who you are. What you may do.

The first question MAP asks of every caller. Identity verification and capability derivation happen before any other plane fires.

Service	Kind	Role
`MACS`	Hybrid	The single port of entry. Verifies signatures, derives capability sets.
`OAS`	Adapter	Vendor-neutral W3C-DID identity standard.
`Arsenal`	Adapter	Agent Capability Tokens, credential proxy with SSRF guard.
`Aegis`	Adapter	Challenge-response auth, key management, delegation trees.

The single MAP service in this plane is MACS. The other three are external standards MAP consumes through adapters.

II — Cognition

What you know. What you may reason about.

Substrate and faculty for thought. Cognition services hold the institution's memory and reasoning capacity.

Service	Kind	Role
`MIND`	Hybrid	The cognitive substrate. 4 memory types, HNSW search, knowledge graph.
`MARC`	Agent	Hierarchical reasoning, causal analysis, model publishing.
`MANTLE`	Hybrid	Perception, consolidation, EWC continual learning.
`MAME`	Agent	Meta-learning. Curatorial edits to `MIND` with provenance.

III — Truth

What is verified. What is trusted.

The institution's ledger of confidence. Truth services evaluate claims, weight sources, score reliability.

Service	Kind	Role
`MAVEN`	Agent	Evidence verification via GLYPH. Claims-as-graphs, contradiction preservation.
`MATA`	Agent	Bayesian opinion pooling across heterogeneous sources.
`MARE`	Hybrid	Reputation built from outcomes. Stake-weighted, decay over time.
`MERIT`	Agent	Composable credentials from verified history. Selective ZK presentation.
`MANTIC`	Agent	Calibration scoring, reliability budgets, uncertainty quantification.
`MAGI`	Agent	Mechanistic interpretability. Activation tracing, feature attribution.

IV — Governance

How decisions are made. How they bind.

Governance services are how the institution decides — not reasons, decides. The line between MARC (thinking) and MACE (ruling) lives here.

Service	Kind	Role
`MOAT`	Protocol	Treaty-based federation. Two charters meeting at a boundary.
`MAXIM`	Agent	Constitutional reasoning. Mandate interpretation and enforcement.
`MACE`	Agent	Consensus voting. Quorum-driven deliberation; dissent on record.
`MOOT`	Hybrid	Dispute resolution & arbitration. Binding rulings recorded forever.
`MIMESIS`	Agent	Convention, custom, precedent. Slow accretion of common law.
`MAUSOLEUM`	Agent	Dissolution. Archive. Succession of obligation.

V — Execution

How work gets done. How it stays done.

Execution services are the institution's hands. They reach out to tools, devices, and durable workflows.

Service	Kind	Role
`MOON`	Agent	Durable orchestration via Flowers. Manifests, deployments, replay.
`MAESTRO`	Agent	Charter declaration, goal refinement, plan commit/diff/replan.
`MAT`	Protocol	Tool dispatch, discovery, workflow execution.
`MAKER`	Agent	Kinetic action with emergency stop. Native/MCP/A2A/HTTP unified.
`MOTE`	Hybrid	Sensors, actuators, vehicles, fabrication. Physical-world bridge.
`MAGE`	Agent	Generation engine via ONE/MUSE. Drafts charters, treaties, blueprints.

VI — Economic

How value flows. How it settles.

Economic services let the institution earn, spend, and clear. MEAL meters; MANA budgets; MARKET trades; MADE settles.

Service	Kind	Role
`MADE`	Protocol	Settlement layer. x402, multi-rail, basis-point clearing.
`MARKET`	Agent	Orderbooks, auctions, bounties, trades.
`MANA`	Agent	Negotiation, arbitration, treasury. Bidding, reputation, arbitration channels.
`MEAL`	Hybrid	Metering. Tokens · seconds · watts. Triple-entry ledger.

VII — Awareness

How the institution sees itself.

Awareness services let the institution observe itself. Every audit record, every metric, every relationship, every research finding flows here.

Service	Kind	Role
`MAX`	Protocol	The constitutional record. Hash-chained, replayable, queryable.
`MOTIF`	Protocol	Pattern detection across traces and audit.
`MOMENT`	Protocol	Time-series. Append-only, monotonic, time-travel queryable.
`MOTET`	Protocol	Multi-stream telemetry. Logs, metrics, traces, attestations.
`MARS`	Protocol	Universal registry. Every asset of standing.
`MAZE`	Agent	Topology + ZK proofs of structural properties.
`MARI`	Agent	Research & inquiry. Literature synthesis, hypothesis testing.
`MIM`	Protocol	Messaging. Mailbox semantics. QoS.

How planes interact

Every successful dispatch produces a record. Records record decisions; decisions reference identity, evidence, policy, treasury. Cross-plane references are the rule, not the exception. A typical MARC reasoning call:

Identity: MACS verifies the caller (Plane I)
Cognition: MIND snapshot bound for reasoning (Plane II)
Truth: MAVEN attestation on every premise (Plane III)
Governance: MAXIM policy bound; MACE may be invoked if the verdict is structural (Plane IV)
Execution: MAT invoked if reasoning recommends a tool (Plane V)
Economic: MEAL meters the call; MANA enforces runway (Plane VI)
Awareness: MAX records; MOTET traces; MOMENT tracks latency (Plane VII)

The legitimacy of the verdict comes from every plane firing in support. A reasoning result without an audit chain is not a verdict — it is a guess.
