PASS — isostatic (minimally rigid) |
Directed vs. Undirected — Caveat
The Maxwell criterion (M = b − 3j + 6 = 0) is classically defined for undirected constraint graphs in structural mechanics (rigidity theory, Laman's theorem). Applying it to a directed graph is an architectural convention, not a formal proof of rigidity.
Our choice: directed edges.
AMARU is a directional cognitive pipeline; every edge carries a semantic flow direction (e.g., KALLPA → YACHAY means "energy primes retrieval", not the reverse). Collapsing that to undirected would erase architectural meaning.
Mitigating convention: The 21-edge count still satisfies M = 0 whether treated as directed or undirected (same count). The directed interpretation adds semantic precision without breaking the numeric criterion. Any future formal rigidity proof should use the undirected projection.
Bracing Edge Justifications (13 edges)
| # |
Edge |
Justification |
| 1 |
KALLPA → HATUN |
Sovereignty gate informs energy budget; the crown's continuum hash constrains how much energy the root may allocate in the next tick. |
| 2 |
NAWI → RIMAY |
Toolcall results (external reads) flow back into the proposal layer; NAWI's boundary data reshapes what RIMAY can assert. |
| 3 |
NAWI → YUYAY |
Toolcall results bypass proposal and pass directly to the critique gate; YUYAY can reject on boundary evidence alone. |
| 4 |
YACHAY → YUYAY |
Retrieved priors (codex facts) are checked at the heart gate; YUYAY validates proposals against memory, not just logic. |
| 5 |
YACHAY → RUWAY |
Codex updates that survive the gate are committed to the record via RUWAY; storage without serpent detour. |
| 6 |
KALLPA → YUYAY |
Energy budget gates critique cost; YUYAY cannot run expensive multi-pass critique if KALLPA signals low energy. |
| 7 |
KALLPA → RUWAY |
Commit action has an energy toll; RUWAY checks KALLPA's available budget before finalising any write. |
| 8 |
HATUN → YUYAY |
The HUKLLA continuum hash flows to the heart gate so YUYAY can validate proposals against the canonical sovereign state. |
| 9 |
MUSQUY → YUYAY |
If critique flags a simulation fault, YUYAY can request re-simulation; this edge carries the re-simulate signal. |
| 10 |
MUSQUY → YACHAY |
Simulation consults the codex mid-flight; intermediate simulation states pull from YACHAY to avoid stale priors. |
| 11 |
MUSQUY → KALLPA |
Simulation declares its energy cost upfront; KALLPA must acknowledge budget before MUSQUY proceeds. |
| 12 |
HATUN → NAWI |
Sovereignty governs the external boundary; HATUN authorises which reads NAWI may open, preventing unbounded toolcall escalation. |
| 13 |
TUKUY → NAWI |
Action-out is symmetric to action-in; an outbound action triggers the same boundary-crossing record in NAWI that an inbound toolcall would. |
Edges Not Selected (and why)
| Candidate |
Reason not chosen |
| YUYAY ↔ RUWAY (as brace) |
Already Serpent-5; would be a duplicate. |
| TUKUY → HATUN (as brace) |
Already Serpent-7; would be a duplicate — originally selected in error, replaced by HATUN→NAWI. |
| TUKUY ↔ SENTRA-egress |
SENTRA is infrastructure, not a chakra node; excluded per task specification. |
