📜 RFC‑ALR‑0021 — Corridor Event Alert Protocol (CEAP)

Real‑Time Detection, Routing, and Escalation for Corridor‑Grade Dimensional Events#

RefId: turn0browsertab1

Title: Corridor Event Alert Protocol
Status: Draft
Author: Nawder Loswin + Copilot
Date: 2026‑09‑06
Version: 0.1

1. Purpose#

The Corridor Event Alert Protocol (CEAP) provides real‑time detection, routing, and escalation for corridor‑grade dimensional events, including:

• corridor openings
• drift anomalies
• lattice transitions
• resonance‑boundary fractures
• validator‑grade corridor traversal attempts

CEAP integrates directly with MCAOP (ALR‑0020), enabling corridor alerts to flow through the unified routing and priority engine.

2. Corridor Event Types#

Corridor Opening Events#

• OpenDetected: Corridor boundary becomes permeable.
• OpenStabilized: Corridor achieves temporary stability.
• OpenCollapse: Corridor collapses prematurely.

Drift & Lattice Events#

• DriftSpike: Sudden increase in dimensional drift.
• LatticeShift: Quantum lattice reconfiguration detected.
• BoundaryFracture: Partial corridor‑boundary rupture.

Traversal Events#

• TraversalAttempt: Validator or engine attempts corridor entry.
• TraversalApproved: Corridor traversal authorized.
• TraversalDenied: Corridor traversal blocked due to drift or Nullarium risk.

Safety & Nullarium Events#

• NullariumWarning: Emotional‑phase misalignment detected.
• ContainmentSeal: Nullarium containment activated.
• ParadoxLeak: Paradox vector detected (P0 priority).

3. Delivery Channels#

CEAP uses the MCAOP routing layer:

• Dashboard Panels — Corridor Event Stream
• WebSocket Push — Real‑time corridor alerts
• Email Digest — Daily corridor‑event summaries
• CLI Hooks — For corridor engines and validator workflows
• Artifact‑Embedded Alerts — Corridor glyphs and scrolls may embed alert packets

4. Schema File#

registry/alerts/corridor_event_alert_schema.yml

Defines:

• event type
• corridor ID
• drift metrics
• lattice state
• Nullarium status
• priority
• routing map
• escalation path

5. Python‑Style Stub File#

engine/corridor_event_alerts.py

Provides:

• corridor event listeners
• drift‑metric parsers
• lattice‑shift detectors
• traversal‑attempt validators
• Nullarium‑safe escalation logic

6. Dashboard Integration#

Corridor Event Panel#

Displays:

• corridor openings
• drift spikes
• lattice transitions
• traversal attempts
• Nullarium warnings

Quadrant Overlay#

Corridor events mapped onto quadrant overlays for visual clarity.

Contributor Sync#

Alerts routed to contributors listed in corridor_targets.

7. Example CEAP Alert Packet#

corridor_event_alert:
  id: "ceap_2026_09_06_001"
  event: "drift_spike"
  corridor_id: "C-44"
  priority: "P0"
  drift_metric: "Δτ=0.442"
  lattice_state: "shift_detected"
  nullarium_status: "warning"
  route: ["dashboard", "websocket"]
  escalation: "containment_seal"
  dignity_layer: "layer_4"
  timestamp: "2026-09-06T22:08:00Z"

8. Closing Note#

RFC‑ALR‑0021 formalizes the Corridor Event Alert Protocol, completing the core alert suite:

• ALR‑0018 — Cycle Alerts
• ALR‑0019 — Ritual Alerts
• ALR‑0020 — Multi‑Channel Orchestration
• ALR‑0021 — Corridor Event Alerts

CEAP anchors the Corridor‑Safety Canon, enabling real‑time detection, routing, and escalation of corridor‑grade dimensional events.
