## 🌐 **Core Vision: The Context Fabric**

> A distributed, semantic, temporal knowledge fabric for humans and AI agents to share *reasoning*, *context*, and *intent*, not just files.

### **CHORUS** — *The Context Pulse*

* **Purpose:** P2P protocol for *real-time, selective* sharing of live and historical context between agents/nodes.
* **Core Features:**
	- Autonomous nodes, each authoritative over its local context.
	- Selective, topic-based, and temporal sync (no full repo mirroring).
	- Handles partial streaming updates — *context drips*, not just snapshots.
	- Machine-readable metadata for provenance & confidence.

### **WHOOSH** — *The Inter-Agent Orchestra*

* **Purpose:** Secure multi-agent coordination layer over CHORUS.
* **Core Features:**

  * Agent roles, capabilities, and task assignment.
  * Shared context awareness without centralization.
  * Negotiated reasoning — agents “debate” using shared provenance.
  * Pluggable storage backends (Git, Redis, S3, etc.) but **protocol stays consistent**.

### **SLURP** — *The Knowledge Curator*

* **Purpose:** Ingest, normalize, and structure knowledge for semantic use.
* **Core Features:**

  * Merges RAG results, reasoning chains, API outputs into curated Markdown + JSON metadata.
  * Enforces provenance: citations, decision history, justifications.
  * Prepares context for both human consumption and agent reasoning.
  * Works across projects, timelines, and domains.

### **UCXL** — *The Time-Aware Address Space*

* **Purpose:** Addressable protocol for context queries.
* **Core Features:**

  * Path syntax maps to semantic concepts, not just files.
  * Temporal navigation (`~~/` past, `^^/` future) as first-class path segments.
  * The **address itself is the query** — resolution returns curated, relevant context.
  * Works across multiple storage backends seamlessly.

---

### **Why Not Just Git?**

* Git stores *what changed*; this stack stores *why it matters*.
* Git is linear and per-repo; this stack is multidimensional and cross-domain.
* Git lacks:

  * Semantic structure
  * Multi-agent concurrency without merge hell
  * Queryable temporal navigation
  * Live partial updates & provenance metadata

---

### **The North Star**

> **A living knowledge fabric** where agents and humans can navigate not just *history*, but *reasoning*, across time and domains — with zero friction, zero central point of failure, and context that is *queryable as easily as it is stored*.
