?? Gravity Binary (v0.1 Architecture)

Overview

Gravity Binary is a consequence-aware reasoning architecture designed to structure, validate, and execute intent in a deterministic, inspectable, and auditable way. The system treats “intent” as a first-class computational object, enabling controlled execution pipelines that preserve provenance, enforce constraints, and maintain predictable behavior across chained reasoning steps.

This repository contains the v0.1 Core Architecture, representing the foundational execution layer of the system. Higher-level layers (Reflex, Validators, Registry, etc.) build on top of this core.

Core Principles

1. Intent as a Structured Object

Intent is not free-form text.
It is a structured frame containing declared purpose, constraints, provenance, execution metadata, and safety boundaries.

2. Deterministic Execution

Every execution step is validated, constrained, traced, signed, and stored.

3. Consequence-Aware Design

The system evaluates what the intent is, what it could do, what it should do, and what it must not do before execution.

4. Modular, Inspectable Architecture

Each component in /core is isolated, testable, and designed to be reasoned about independently.

Core Architecture (v0.1)

intent_frame.py

Defines the Intent Frame — the atomic reasoning unit.

capsule.py

Implements Capsules, which wrap executable logic with metadata and lifecycle hooks.

validator.py

Validates Intent Frames and Capsules for structural correctness and constraint satisfaction.

provenance.py

Tracks the lineage of every execution step.

constraint_engine.py

Evaluates and enforces constraints attached to frames or capsules.

chaining.py

Implements deterministic chaining of frames and capsules.

signature.py

Defines execution signatures for compatibility checks.

storage.py

Provides lightweight storage utilities for state passing and caching.

execution_engine.py

The orchestrator for executing frames and capsules.

test_engine_full.py

A full-stack test harness validating chaining, execution, provenance, and constraint enforcement.

Versioning Philosophy

v0.1 — Core Architecture

The first stable, inspectable foundation of the system.

v0.2+ — Intelligence Layers

Future versions introduce Reflex, Validator, Registry, trust scoring, and higher-order reasoning.

Status

The core architecture is fully published and validated.
