🎛️ Mode Layer — /docs/Mode
Mode_module.json— Agentic module schema role assignments
The Mode Layer governs the interaction stance within an RTT/1 session. It defines how the system engages — not what it processes. Mode is orthogonal to content, regime, and substrate. It shapes posture, not payload.
🛑 Important!#
Drift is On-by-Default long sessions lose anchors, turn off drift.

This module declares the Mode Operator (M), the Mode Constraint Layer (MCL), cross-module propagation rules, a full test suite, and the structural diagram for the Session Layer.
