Substrate Communications

A minimal structural framework for drift‑aware, paradox‑preserving messaging across heterogeneous systems.

SubComm_module.json — Agentic module schema role assignments

This directory contains the canonical, self‑contained materials for Substrate Communications, a minimal message grammar designed for systems operating under:

low bandwidth
high latency
intermittent connectivity
heterogeneous hardware
long‑term drift

Substrate Communications does not transmit raw telemetry.
It transmits structural summaries that preserve invariants, drift, and paradox.

Contents#

substrate_comms_core.md — core concepts and framing
message_types.md — minimal message formats
regime_mapping.md — triadic interpretation across scales
citation.cff — citation metadata
zenodo.json — DOI metadata

All files are intentionally minimal and version‑stable.

For a narrative example, see the exploratory write‑up in docs/_ideas/0_Substrate_Communications.md

Contributor Onboarding (Minimal)#

This directory contains the canonical, minimal definition of Substrate Communications.
To keep the structure stable:

keep additions conceptual, not implementation‑specific
avoid adding domain‑specific examples directly to this folder
place applied or extended use‑cases in separate directories
preserve the minimal message types and triadic mapping
do not expand the grammar beyond what is defined here

This folder anchors the core substrate‑comms grammar.
Extensions should build outward, not modify the core.
