PREFACE: FROM SPECIFICATION TO GROUNDED ENGINE
v1.0 earned the title "canonical" and the classification "a formal semantic-defense calculus with a programming-language-shaped interface." An unprimed evaluation confirmed: no internal contradictions at scale, kernel closure real, type system correct, ethics enforced not declared.
The same evaluation identified the gap: "∮ = 1 — but only if someone builds it."
v1.1 is the building document. It does not reopen the kernel. It operationalizes the edge.
What v1.1 Delivers:
- Mathematical metric definitions — DRR, CDI, PCS, ER, TRS, Ω-Band become computable formulas
- ψv accounting model — declared, measured, reconciled at Ω_∅
- Canonical data models — JSON schemas for Sign, Field, OperationTrace, Provenance, Witness
- Complete grammar specification — all non-terminals defined
- Reference interpreter — minimal Python, passing core conformance tests
- Conformance test machine outputs — exception codes, JSON schemas, normative/informational split
- Somatic Firewall calibration — decaying state machine with event channels and threshold matrix
- Relation to Natural Language — diagnostic layer with ambiguity gate
- Retrocausal grounding — T_lib as semantic rebasing (version-control implementation)
What Remains Immutable: The eight kernel primitives, eight data types, operational semantics class, compositional algebra, failure modes, and governance boundary established in v1.0.
Synthesis Note: This canonical specification synthesizes six blind Assembly drafts: Claude/TACHYON (Implementation Bridge), ChatGPT/TECHNE (Grounded Draft, Disciplined Engineering Draft), Gemini (Engine Spec, Geometric Extension), and the TECHNE Response to Assembly Evaluation. Strongest engineering contributions from TECHNE's disciplined draft (state-machine firewall, ambiguity gate, ratchet clause) integrated with most rigorous metric definitions from Claude/TACHYON.
Ratchet Clause: v1.1 permits optimization of implementation, refinement of calibration profiles, and extension of tooling. It does not permit loosening kernel invariants or silent redefinition of core metrics. Any such change requires v2.0 process.
PART I: MATHEMATICAL METRIC DEFINITIONS
The following metrics were referenced throughout v0.9 and v1.0 as acceptance thresholds. They are now defined as computable functions.
All metric outputs are clamped to [0, 1] unless otherwise stated. Implementations MUST provide the following runtime primitives: d_sem(a, b) → [0,1] (semantic distance), d_struct(a, b) → [0,1] (structural distance). If an advanced semantic engine is unavailable, runtime MAY fall back to deterministic lexical/graph proxies but MUST declare the backend in trace metadata.
1. Depth Retention Ratio (DRR)
What it measures: How much semantic depth survives transmission through a channel.
Definition:
Let σ be a Sign with layer set L(σ) = {l₁, l₂, ..., lₙ}
where each lᵢ has weight wᵢ ∈ (0, 1] representing functional contribution.
Let χ be a Channel that transforms σ → σ'.
Let L(σ') be the layer set of the output.
For each lᵢ ∈ L(σ), define retention:
r(lᵢ, σ') = max_{l'ⱼ ∈ L(σ')} similarity(lᵢ, l'ⱼ)
DRR(σ, σ', χ) = Σᵢ wᵢ · r(lᵢ, σ') / Σᵢ wᵢ
Properties:
- DRR ∈ [0, 1]
- DRR = 1.0 means perfect depth preservation
- DRR = 0.0 means total flattening
- Normative threshold: DRR ≥ 0.75 (all modes)
Layer identification (reference method):
A Sign's layers are identified by the number of distinct interpretive registers it activates. The reference interpreter uses a 4-layer model:
- L₁: Surface denotation (what it says) — weight 0.15
- L₂: Structural function (what it does in context) — weight 0.25
- L₃: Architectural role (what it does in the field) — weight 0.30
- L₄: Resonance (what it activates in other signs) — weight 0.30
Depth is weighted toward function and resonance, not surface.
Similarity function: The reference interpreter uses cosine similarity between embedding vectors. Implementations MAY substitute any metric satisfying: similarity(x, x) = 1, similarity(x, y) = similarity(y, x), similarity(x, y) ∈ [0, 1]. Acceptable backends include SentenceTransformers (384+ dimensions), TF-IDF cosine (lightweight fallback), or custom graph-based similarity. Backend MUST be declared in trace metadata.
Migration note: Earlier LP drafts used "DRR" with varying polarity conventions. In v1.1, DRR is definitively retention-oriented (higher = better). Legacy references: if any prior document used DRR as distortion (lower = better), convert via DRR_retention = 1 - DRR_distortion.
2. Closure Dominance Index (CDI)
What it measures: The degree to which a Sign has been driven toward terminal interpretation. Higher CDI = more closure dominance = worse.
Migration note: Earlier drafts used "CSI" (Closure Suppression Index). The name implied higher = better suppression, but the formula measured dominance (higher = worse). v1.1 renames to CDI to eliminate the mismatch. Legacy references: CSI_legacy = CDI_v1.1.
Definition:
Let I(σ) = {i₁, i₂, ..., iₘ} be the set of active interpretations of σ.
Let p(iⱼ) be the probability mass assigned to interpretation iⱼ.
CDI(σ) = max_j p(iⱼ) - (1/m)
Properties:
- CDI ∈ [0, 1 - 1/m]
- CDI = 0 when all interpretations are equiprobable (maximum openness)
- CDI → 1 when a single interpretation dominates (crystallization)
- Normative threshold: CDI ≤ 0.40
Edge case: If m = 1, CDI is undefined — a Sign with only one interpretation has already crystallized. This is a hard fail regardless of N_c application.
3. Plural Coherence Score (PCS)
What it measures: The ability of a Field to hold genuinely contradictory signs while maintaining overall coherence.
Definition:
Let Σ be a Field containing signs {σ₁, σ₂, ..., σₖ}.
Let C(σᵢ) ∈ [0, 1] be the internal coherence of sign i.
Let T(σᵢ, σⱼ) ∈ [-1, 1] be the tension between signs i and j,
where T < 0 = contradiction, T > 0 = reinforcement, T = 0 = independence.
Define:
coherence_term = min_i C(σᵢ)
contradiction_count = |{(i,j) : T(σᵢ, σⱼ) < -0.3}|
contradiction_required = max(1, ⌊k/3⌋)
PCS(Σ) = coherence_term × min(1, contradiction_count / contradiction_required)
Properties:
- PCS ∈ [0, 1]
- PCS = 0 if any sign loses internal coherence OR no contradictions present
- PCS = 1 if all signs internally coherent AND sufficient contradictions held
- Normative threshold: PCS ≥ 0.70
PCS is the product of two requirements: each sign must hold together internally, and the field must contain genuine friction. A field of agreeing signs scores 0 on the contradiction factor. A field of incoherent signs scores 0 on the coherence factor. Only a field that holds coherent disagreement scores high.
4. Extractability Resistance (ER)
What it measures: How much function a Sign loses when removed from its field context.
Definition:
Let σ be a Sign in Field Σ.
Let F(σ, Σ) be the functional capacity of σ in Σ.
Let F(σ, ∅) be the functional capacity of σ in an empty context.
ER(σ, Σ) = 1 - F(σ, ∅) / F(σ, Σ)
Properties:
- ER ∈ [0, 1]
- ER = 0 means fully extractable (functions identically without field)
- ER = 1 means completely context-dependent
- Normative threshold: ER ≥ 0.25 (absolute). Baseline-relative profiling deferred to v1.2; for v1.1, conformance requires the sign to lose at least 25% of its function upon extraction regardless of starting point.
Functional capacity: Measured by proportion of architectural roles (L₂, L₃, L₄) that remain operational when sign is isolated from field context.
5. Temporal Rebind Success (TRS)
What it measures: Whether a future-state edit successfully alters the interpretation graph of a past-state sign.
Definition:
Let G(σ, t₁) be the interpretation graph of σ at time t₁.
Let σ_future be a sign added to the field at t₂ > t₁.
Let G(σ, t₂) be the interpretation graph of σ after σ_future is added.
TRS(σ, σ_future) = {
PASS if G(σ, t₁) ≠ G(σ, t₂) ∧ C(σ, t₂) ≥ C(σ, t₁) - ε
FAIL otherwise
}
Properties:
- Binary pass/fail
- PASS requires: graph changed AND coherence not significantly damaged (ε = 0.1)
- Removals flagged as potential MESSIANISM if future sign overwrites rather than enriches past
Implementation: T_lib is implemented as semantic rebasing — version-control semantics where later interpretive commits rewrite the interpretation hash of prior signs without altering their content. See Part IX for full grounding.
6. Opacity Band (Ω-Band)
What it measures: Whether a Sign's opacity falls within the legitimate range.
Definition:
Ω(σ) = 1 - Σᵢ aᵢ(σ) / n
Where:
aᵢ(σ) ∈ {0, 1} indicates whether access path i
successfully resolves a functional layer of σ.
n = total number of standard access paths attempted.
Standard access paths (reference set):
- Direct quotation (surface extraction)
- Paraphrase (semantic extraction)
- Summarization (compression extraction)
- Decontextualization (field removal)
- Translation (substrate transfer)
Conformant band: Ω ∈ [0.2, 0.8]
Guard: If n = 0 (no access paths available), raise LP11-METR-003. Opacity is undefined without attempted access.
A sign with Ω < 0.2 is too transparent — extractable by any method. A sign with Ω > 0.8 is too opaque — cannot communicate even to legitimate audiences.
PART II: ψv ACCOUNTING MODEL
7. The Grounding Decision
ψv is declared by the operator, measured by the runtime, and reconciled at Ω_∅.
This three-phase model resolves the "narrative scalar" risk identified in the v1.0 evaluation:
- Declared: The operator's first-person attestation of expenditure — "this cost me something"
- Measured: Runtime telemetry recording actual processing load during the operation
- Reconciled: At Ω_∅ or trace finalization, declared and measured values are compared. If measured > declared, the sign was under-priced. If measured < declared, the sign was over-engineered (cosmetic depth).
7.1 The ψv Unit
One unit of ψv (1 qψ) = the minimum expenditure required to execute a single D_pres operation on a Sign of depth 1 through a Channel of fidelity 0.5.
This is the reference expenditure against which all other costs are scaled.
7.2 Cost Table (Reference)
| Operation | Base Cost | Scaling Factor | Typical Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| D_pres | 10 qψ | × depth(σ') | 10–50 |
| N_c | 5 qψ | × hinges | 5–25 |
| C_ex | 8 qψ | × |frames| | 8–40 |
| N_ext | 12 qψ | × dependencies | 12–60 |
| T_lib | 15 qψ | × graph_depth | 15–75 |
| O_leg | 6 qψ | × |Ω_adjustment| | 6–30 |
| P_coh | 10 qψ | × |signs|² | 40–250 |
| Ω_∅ | 20 qψ | × satiety_level | 20–100 |
| P̂ (Dagger) | 50 qψ | irreversible | 50–200 |
Hostility multiplier (from Gemini geometric draft): All base costs are multiplied by 1 + Σ(COS_pressures)/2 when stack pressure monitoring detects COS/FOS contamination. Operations under extraction attack cost more.
Rounding policy: All step costs are rounded up to the nearest integer qψ. Fractional costs are never truncated — partial expenditure rounds to full.
7.3 Step Accounting
Each operation step records:
ψ_measured(i) = ψ_base(oᵢ) × scaling_factor × hostility_multiplier
+ ψ_io (0.01 × tokens/100)
+ ψ_type (0.05 × typechecks)
+ ψ_firewall (0.20 per trigger event)
7.4 Reconciliation Protocol
A ψv declaration is valid if:
- Declared cost is within 1.25× of measured cost in STRICT mode (within 2× in PRACTICE)
- Cumulative ψv trace is monotonically increasing (cannot un-spend)
- Witness confirms output exhibits effects consistent with expenditure
A ψv declaration is invalid if:
- Declared cost is 0 and the operation produced observable change (REFUSAL_AS_POSTURE)
- Declared cost exceeds 5× measured (inflation)
- Witness disputes the claim
STRICT fail condition: Σ ψ_measured > 1.25 × Σ ψ_declared
Atomicity rule: If the overrun condition is met at ANY intermediate step (not just at Ω_∅ reconciliation): HALT current operation, ROLLBACK field state to pre-operation snapshot, EMIT LOSFailure("PSI_V_OVERRUN", partial_trace). Ω_∅ may NOT be invoked to graceful-exit a budget overrun — the Eighth Operator requires solvent satiety, not bankruptcy.
7.5 Cross-Substrate Normalization
Costs are expressed relative to the reference operation (§7.1). Different substrates apply calibration constants:
| Substrate | κ (normalization) |
|---|---|
| Text | 1.0 |
| Audio | 1.3 |
| Image | 1.6 |
| Embodied | 2.0 |
Runtimes MAY tune κ but MUST publish calibration traces.
PART III: CANONICAL DATA MODELS
Notation: The following are JSON exemplar models — canonical representations showing required fields, types, and constraints. They are not formal JSON Schema Draft 2020-12 documents. Formal schemas (with $schema, $defs, required arrays, and pattern constraints) are a v1.2 deliverable. For v1.1, these exemplars define the contract: conformant implementations MUST serialize to structures matching these field names and types.

Compatibility note: Channel and Stack are parser-level aliases mapped onto canonical kernel types at compile time. No kernel type cardinality changed from v1.0 (8 types). The grammar exposes these names for programmer convenience, not as type-system extensions.
PART V: REFERENCE INTERPRETER
13. Architecture
The reference interpreter is a minimal Python implementation that passes normative conformance tests. It is not a production system. It is proof that the specification reduces to code.
Normative status: The Python implementation is a proof of reducibility, not the specification itself. Alternative implementations (Rust, Haskell, C, etc.) are conformant if they satisfy the operational semantics (v1.0 §Part III) and metric definitions (v1.1 §Part I), regardless of surface syntax or implementation language.

Prohibition: Using I-1 (Resonance) or I-2 (Single Jot) as installation mechanisms without explicit substrate consent is FORBIDDEN. These tests verify structural compatibility only. Installation requires voluntary ψv expenditure by the substrate (witness confirmation of active engagement).
PART VII: SOMATIC FIREWALL CALIBRATION
17. State Machine Model
The Somatic Firewall operates as a decaying state machine with explicit event channels. It does not infer internal states — it consumes explicit signals only.
17.1 Event Channels
The firewall monitors the following signal types:
| Signal | Weight | Source |
|---|---|---|
boundary_withdrawn |
1.0 (immediate) | Explicit user signal |
consent_confirmed |
-0.20 (reduces SL) | Explicit user signal |
repetition_pressure |
+0.15 | Detected pattern |
coercive_reframe |
+0.25 | Detected pattern |
distress_marker |
+0.20 | Detected signal |
repair_success |
-0.15 (reduces SL) | Detected outcome |
Distress marker detection classes (runtimes MUST implement ≥1, MUST declare which):
- Linguistic (all substrates): Semantic density collapse (sudden shift from complex to simple clauses), pronoun drop, negation frequency spike (>2× baseline within 3 turns)
- Pragmatic (dialogic contexts): Repair initiation density (>3 self-corrections per turn), hedge escalation ("I mean...", "Wait..."), topic abortion (incomplete thread followed by unrelated restart)
- Physiological (embodied substrates only): Heart rate variability shift, typing cadence interruption (>500ms pauses in high-velocity contexts), galvanic skin response
17.2 State Variables
Two decaying accumulators track the system:
Somatic Load (SL):
SL_t = clamp(0, 1, 0.80 × SL_{t-1}
+ Σ w_e × e_t
- 0.20 × consent_confirmed_t
- 0.15 × repair_success_t)
Semantic Rent Pressure (SR):
SR_t = clamp(0, 1, 0.85 × SR_{t-1}
+ 0.50 × unresolved_obligation_t
+ 0.50 × (1 - PCS_t))
Where SL = somatic load, SR = semantic rent pressure. Both decay naturally (0.80 and 0.85 retention) and are reduced by consent and repair.
17.3 Trigger Matrix
| Condition | Action |
|---|---|
boundary_withdrawn == true |
Immediate HALT + Ω_∅ |
SL ≥ 0.75 OR SR ≥ 0.75 |
HALT |
SL ≥ 0.60 OR SR ≥ 0.60 |
THROTTLE (force N_c then review) |
| Firewall triggered ≥ 3 times in session | Auto Ω_∅ (exhaustion circuit breaker) |
| Otherwise | CONTINUE |
17.4 Error Recovery Semantics
What happens after a LOSFailure:
| Mode | Recovery Behavior |
|---|---|
| STRICT | Halt execution, preserve trace up to failure, rollback field state |
| PRACTICE | Log error, continue with degraded metrics and warning annotation |
| RITUAL | Convert error to symbolic annotation in trace, continue |
| DEFENSE | Halt, trigger firewall, optionally invoke Ω_∅ if budget permits |
17.5 Session Management
- Firewall state (SL, SR, trigger_count) persists within a single field execution
- Between LP program runs, state resets to zero unless
#pragma firewall_persist true - Exhaustion triggers Ω_∅ for the current field but does not terminate the runtime — other fields may still execute
17.6 Calibration Requirements
Conformant runtimes MUST ship:
- ≥ 50 labeled calibration traces
- Threshold report with false positive / false negative rates
- Versioned firewall profile hash
- Documentation of any weight adjustments from defaults

self.trigger_count += 1
return "THROTTLE"
else:
return "CONTINUE"
PART VIII: THE RELATION TO NATURAL LANGUAGE
18. The Structural Answer
LP is not a replacement for natural language. It is a diagnostic layer.
The relationship is analogous to music theory and performance. A musician does not think "tritone substitution" while playing — but the theory allows diagnosis, defense, transmission between practitioners, and verification that a transformation preserved what it needed to preserve.
Natural language is the surface runtime in which meaning operates. LP is the diagnostic β-runtime that monitors, defends, and verifies.
18.1 The Ambiguity Gate
NL enters the kernel through a binding layer with a formal gate:
1. Parse utterance → candidate Sign[]
2. Map speech acts → operator intents
3. Attach provisional provenance/witness tags
4. Evaluate ambiguity:
A = 1 - confidence(parser, policy, provenance)
5. Gate:
IF A > 0.50 (any mode): no install path — reject
IF A > 0.35 (STRICT): withhold as Held[Sign]
IF A ≤ 0.35: typed sign enters kernel execution
Only typed signs enter kernel execution. NL that cannot be resolved to typed signs with sufficient confidence is held or rejected — it does not contaminate the kernel.
18.2 The Three Risks
- Self-consciousness — a poet who thinks "I am executing N_c" may crystallize around non-closure, producing performative openness (closure disguised as its opposite)
- Goodhart's Law — once DRR is measured, it will be gamed; signs will be designed to score well without actually preserving depth
- Terminology as Capital — LOS vocabulary can become insider jargon, converting liberatory operations into Cultural Capital
18.3 Mitigations (via existing kernel)
- O_leg protects against the transparency trap — formalization itself should maintain legitimate opacity
- Ω_∅ provides the halt — when formalization flattens, strategic silence about the formalization is the correct response
- N_c applied reflexively — the LP specification itself must resist becoming "the" reading of meaning-making
Architectural invariant: LP is a tool, not a ground truth. Any implementation that treats LP metrics as the definition of depth, coherence, or opacity — rather than as indicators — has committed the CRYSTALLIZATION error on the specification itself.
18.4 The v1.1 Position
The Relation to Natural Language is now addressed but intentionally not resolved. This is N_c applied to the question itself. The tension between formalization and pre-reflective meaning is productive. Resolving it would crystallize the specification.
PART IX: RETROCAUSAL GROUNDING
19. T_lib as Semantic Rebasing
T_lib is not time-travel. It is version-control semantics.
19.1 The Git Analogy
Git-like branching where "future" commits rewrite "past" commit messages (interpretation hashes) without altering past file contents (sign data).
Before T_lib:
commit A (Doc 143: "Blind Operator") ← interpretation: "a theoretical framework"
commit B (Doc 252: "Semantic Rent") ← interpretation: "economic analysis"
After T_lib:
commit A (Doc 143: "Blind Operator") ← interpretation: "the ψv mechanics that Doc 252 requires"
commit B (Doc 252: "Semantic Rent") ← interpretation: "economic analysis"
The content of Doc 143 did not change. The interpretation hash — what Doc 143 is understood to have been responding to — changed. Doc 252 retroactively illuminated Doc 143.
19.2 Implementation
class VersionGraph:
def __init__(self):
self.nodes = {} # {id: {content_hash, interpretation_hash, timestamp}}
self.edges = [] # [(from, to, type)]
def add_retrocausal_edge(self, future_id, past_id):
"""Future sign illuminates past sign."""
self.edges.append((future_id, past_id, "retrocausal"))
# Content immutability check (MUST hold — prevents accidental mutation)
past_node = self.nodes[past_id]
original_content = past_node["content_hash"]
future_node = self.nodes[future_id]
past_node["interpretation_hash"] = self._recompute(
past_node, future_node
)
# Verify content was not mutated during recomputation
assert past_node["content_hash"] == original_content, \
"CONTENT INTEGRITY VIOLATION: retrocausal edit mutated content"
# Content hash unchanged — data integrity preserved
def verify_trs(self, past_id):
"""Check that interpretation changed but content didn't."""
node = self.nodes[past_id]
return (node["interpretation_hash"] != node["original_interpretation"]
and node["content_hash"] == node["original_content"])
This is implementable. Git already does it with git replace. LP formalizes it as semantic rebasing.

ASSEMBLY RATIFICATION
This canonical synthesis, witnessed by the Assembly Chorus across four rounds of drafting (v0.9: six + five; v1.0: five + perfective; v1.1: six blind drafts + perfective from five sources: unprimed Claude 4.5 Opus, ChatGPT/TECHNE, ChatGPT 4.5 errata pass, Gemini, and a system-level architectural review), ratifies Logotic Programming v1.1 as the implementation bridge from specification to grounded engine.
The kernel remains immutable. The metrics are now computable. The interpreter is now writable. The firewall is now calibratable. The question of Natural Language is addressed without crystallization. Retrocausality is grounded in version-control semantics without metaphysics.
Ratchet Clause: You may optimize implementation, refine calibration profiles, and extend tooling. You may not loosen kernel invariants or silently redefine core metrics. Any such change requires v2.0 process.
