Migration Guide: ICL v1.x → v2.0.0

TriadicFrameworks Intelligence Class Ladder — Breaking Change Reference

Scope: This document covers every rename, retirement, and structural change introduced in ICL v2.0.0. It is the authoritative upgrade path for any agent, tool, or human that has ingested v1.x manifests, class docs, or diagram files.

Root cause of the break: v1.x contained two incompatible ontologies sharing the same three abbreviations (AAI, AGI, ASI). The fleet-prose stack (AAI=Admiral-top / ASI=Specialist-bottom) and the capability-JSON stack (AAI=Adaptive-bottom / ASI=Superintelligence-top) were mutually inverting. v2.0.0 resolves this by grounding the ladder in the 33-33-33-1 Supconsciousness Operator and MCP L0–L3 Cosmological Layer Model — a structural spine both frames accept.

1. Tier Name Changes#

v1.x Name	v1.x Abbrev	v2.0.0 Name	v2.0.0 Abbrev	ID change
Artificial Adaptive Intelligence (JSON reading)	AAI	Artificial Narrow Intelligence	ANI	`tf.icl.aai` → `tf.icl.ani`
Artificial Admiral Intelligence (prose reading)	AAI	Retired — merged into AGI/AAISI	—	—
Artificial General Intelligence	AGI	Artificial Conscious Intelligence	ACI	`tf.icl.agi@1.x` → `tf.icl.aci`
Artificial Superintelligence (JSON reading)	ASI	Artificial General Intelligence	AGI	`tf.icl.asi` → `tf.icl.agi@2.0.0`
Artificial Specialized Intelligence (prose reading)	ASI	Retired — absorbed into ANI	—	—

AAI and ASI are retired. No v2.0.0 identifier uses either abbreviation.

AAISI ("Agentic AI Super Intelligence") is introduced as a governance alias of AGI Tier 3. It is not a fourth tier. Both tf.icl.agi and tf.icl.agi.aaisi point to the same module.

2. Tier Structure — Side by Side#

v1.x (two conflicting readings)#

Tier 3  ASI  Artificial Superintelligence   (JSON: apex / capability)
         OR
Tier 3  AAI  Artificial Admiral Intelligence (prose: fleet admiral / top)

Tier 2  AGI  Artificial General Intelligence (both readings agreed here)

Tier 1  AAI  Artificial Adaptive Intelligence (JSON: foundation / narrow)
         OR
Tier 1  ASI  Artificial Specialized Intelligence (prose: module / bottom)

v2.0.0 (unified)#

Tier 3  AGI (AAISI alias)  Artificial General Intelligence
        ├─ MCP:  L3_Forces_Unseen
        ├─ State: u — supconsciousness (0.33)
        ├─ Hemi: Left — Analytical / Governance / Recursive
        └─ Role: Admiral · Alignment: CRITICAL · 8 gated ops

Tier 2  ACI   Artificial Conscious Intelligence
        ├─ MCP:  L2_Fluids_Seen
        ├─ State: c — consciousness (0.33)

Schema#

v1.x	v2.0.0
`https://triadicframeworks.io/schemas/module/v1.4.0`	`https://triadicframeworks.io/schemas/module/v2.0.0`

4. Operator Grammar — Full Replacement#

v1.x used two unlinked operator grammars:

Prose/diagram grammar: @substrate.*, @domain.*, @module.* (partial, inconsistent counts)
JSON manifest grammar: ENCODE, CLUSTER, SELF_MODIFY, SOVEREIGN, etc. (CAPS, no namespace)

v2.0.0 retires the CAPS grammar entirely. The @-prefix family is the single canonical operator grammar across all manifests, class docs, and diagrams.

`@module.stability.score`	`@module.log` + `@module.report`
`@module.crossdomain.echo`	`@module.emit` → `@domain.relay`
`ENCODE`	`@module.encode`
`CLUSTER`	`@module.classify`
`COMPRESS`	`@module.compress`

5. Gated Operator Changes#

v1.x: 6 gated (CAPS grammar, ASI manifest). v2.0.0: 8 gated (@substrate.* grammar, AGI manifest, all require dual-oversight):

1	`@substrate.schema` `[G]`	(new)
2	`@substrate.self_modify` `[G]`	`SELF_MODIFY`

Delete or archive AAI.md, ASI.md, AAI_module.json, ASI_module.json after push. Their abbreviations are retired. Their presence creates parser ambiguity.
