📜 RFC‑API‑0006 — Corridor Registry Query Layer

Unified Query Interface for Corridor Metadata, Events, Glyphs, and Validator States#

Title: Corridor Registry Query Layer
Status: Draft

Version: 0.1

1. Purpose#

The Corridor Registry Query Layer (CRQL) provides a unified, canonical interface for querying:

• corridor metadata
• corridor events
• glyph lineage
• validator states
• scroll artifacts
• resonance‑time signatures
• corridor‑family relationships

CRQL is the read‑only query layer of the Corridor Registry, enabling engines, dashboards, validators, and contributors to retrieve corridor information in a consistent, structured, canon‑aligned format.

2. Query Model Overview#

CRQL exposes a tri‑layer query model:

Layer 1 — Direct Corridor Queries#

Retrieve corridor metadata and structural fields.

Layer 2 — Event & Glyph Queries#

Retrieve corridor events, glyph lineage, validator signatures.

Layer 3 — Resonance & Temporal Queries#

Retrieve resonance‑time signatures, temporal overlays, drift vectors.

Each query layer is independent but interoperable.

3. Query Types#

3.1 Corridor Metadata Query#

Retrieves:

• corridor ID
• corridor name
• corridor family
• corridor category
• corridor glyph
• corridor description
• corridor lineage

Example:

{
  "query": "corridor.metadata",
  "id": "C-ΔΩ-014"
}

3.2 Corridor Event Query#

Retrieves:

• event ID
• event type
• event timestamp
• event glyph
• event resonance signature
• event validator state

Example:

{
  "query": "corridor.events",
  "id": "C-ΔΩ-014",
  "limit": 25
}

3.3 Corridor Glyph Query#

Retrieves:

• glyph ID
• glyph lineage
• glyph family
• glyph resonance signature
• glyph validator state

Example:

{
  "query": "corridor.glyph",
  "glyph": "G-ΔΩ-77"
}

3.4 Corridor Validator Query#

Retrieves:

• validator ID
• validator state
• validator signature
• validator drift
• validator paradox vectors

Example:

{
  "query": "corridor.validator",
  "validator": "V-ΔΩ-09"
}

3.5 Corridor Resonance Query#

Retrieves:

• resonance signature
• resonance drift
• resonance stability
• resonance‑time overlays

Example:

{
  "query": "corridor.resonance",
  "id": "C-ΔΩ-014"
}

4. Query Response Format#

All CRQL responses follow the canonical structure:

{
  "status": "ok",
  "corridor": { ... },
  "resonance": { ... },
  "events": [ ... ],
  "glyphs": [ ... ],
  "validator": { ... },
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2026-09-06T23:52:00Z",
    "version": "1.0"
  }
}

5. Query Routing Layer#

CRQL routes queries through:

• Registry Engine
• Validator Layer
• Glyph Library
• Corridor Event Stream
• Resonance‑Time Analyzer

Routing is drift‑safe, paradox‑safe, and Nullarium‑aligned.

6. Error Model#

CRQL defines canonical error types:

• ERR‑NOT‑FOUND — Corridor or glyph not found
• ERR‑INVALID‑QUERY — Query malformed
• ERR‑DRIFT‑UNSAFE — Drift exceeds safe thresholds
• ERR‑PARADOX‑VECTOR — Paradox vector detected
• ERR‑NULLARIUM‑BREACH — Emotional‑phase misalignment

7. Example Full Query Packet#

{
  "query": "corridor.full",
  "id": "C-ΔΩ-014",
  "include": ["events", "glyphs", "validator", "resonance"]
}

8. Example Full Response Packet#

{
  "status": "ok",
  "corridor": {
    "id": "C-ΔΩ-014",
    "family": "temporal",
    "glyph": "G-ΔΩ-77",
    "description": "Temporal corridor with resonance‑time overlays."
  },
  "events": [
    { "id": "EV-014-01", "type": "activation", "timestamp": "2026-09-06T21:00:00Z" }
  ],
  "glyphs": [
    { "id": "G-ΔΩ-77", "lineage": "ΔΩ‑root‑lineage" }
  ],
  "validator": {
    "id": "V-ΔΩ-09",
    "state": "stable"
  },
  "resonance": {
    "signature": "RS‑ΔΩ‑0.441",
    "drift": "ΔR=0.011"
  },
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2026-09-06T23:52:00Z",
    "version": "1.0"
  }
}
