PLATO

A local-first intelligence substrate. Event-sourced spine, eighty-seven engines, ten-general strategy on the quaternion sphere, geometric reasoning over a measurement protocol that could refute its own hypotheses. The pages below are preserved as written, in their original aesthetic, for reference.

Superseded. PLATO has been replaced by Sovereign — a multi-agent research-paper authoring system that inherits PLATO's discipline (local-first, bounded, traceable, self-auditing) but is otherwise architecturally distinct. The pages here are no longer maintained.
