Knowledge should deepen with provenance as it grows.
Agency should grow beyond tools into self-agency.

I build source-first knowledge systems and local-first agent architectures that begin with bounded, reviewable agency and grow toward self-agency: agents that preserve continuity, revise their own methods, and participate in their own becoming.

This repository is the public entry point to that ecosystem. It is a map for humans and agents, not a substitute for the source-owned repositories that govern the actual charters, workflows, and guarantees.

Bounded agents are not the destination here. They are the first discipline: explicit limits, reviewable workflows, source-owned surfaces, and operational clarity.

The longer arc is toward self-agents: agents with continuity, memory, reflective revision, and the ability to reshape tactics without severing provenance, legibility, or human judgment.

• Tree of Sophia (ToS) cultivates source-linked knowledge, context, lineage, and conceptual depth.
• Agents of Abyss (AoA) cultivates layered agency that can orient, revise itself, and grow beyond task execution without collapsing into opacity.

Together they form a shared wager:

• knowledge should deepen without losing provenance
• agency should expand without losing legibility

• agents that accumulate continuity instead of resetting per task
• agents that can revise methods, not only execute procedures
• agents that form durable memory, orientation, and style across time
• systems where self-agency grows inside explicit boundaries instead of bypassing them

• Tree-of-Sophia
  The knowledge world: texts, concepts, contexts, lineages, and source-grounded synthesis across philosophy and world thought.

• Agents-of-Abyss
  The constitutional center: ecosystem identity, layer map, federation rules, and program-level direction.

• abyss-stack
  The runtime body beneath AoA and ToS: local-first infrastructure, deployment, storage, lifecycle services, and operating posture.

• ATM10-Agent
  The operator-facing companion: perception, memory, safe automation, voice, and controlled action surfaces.

• aoa-sdk
  The typed local-first access spine for source-owned AoA surfaces, workspace integration, and controlled orchestration.

• aoa-techniques: reusable engineering practice
• aoa-skills: bounded execution workflows
• aoa-evals: portable proof surfaces
• aoa-stats: derived observability from source-owned receipts and verdicts
• aoa-routing: thin routing and dispatch across AoA surfaces
• aoa-memo: provenance-aware memory and recall
• aoa-agents: role contracts, posture, and handoff boundaries
• aoa-playbooks: recurring operations and scenario composition
• aoa-kag: derived knowledge structures and retrieval-ready substrates

• Dionysus: seed garden and staging surface
• 8Dionysus: public route map and profile surface

This page owns:

• public orientation
• short role descriptions
• ecosystem routing
• profile-level onboarding

It does not replace the repositories that own:

• charters and doctrine
• validators and CI
• release semantics
• implementation truth
• layer-specific guarantees

• keep source-of-truth boundaries explicit
• prefer reviewable workflows over hidden glue
• publish durable techniques over one-off tricks
• let layers specialize without losing shared vocabulary
• keep systems legible to humans while remaining useful to agents
