Current public-DAV authority boundary — 2026-07-12. Pre-launch target design; nothing here proves a live system.
A public-DAV consequence may occur only when at least two natural-person councilors bind the exact consequence in a complete valid bound PRISM decision receipt.
PRISM records and verifies that receipt only; it never serves as council, signatory, authority, or receipt producer.
AI and caste seats stage unsigned proposals only; they never authorize or execute a public-DAV consequence. Constitution or membership adoption establishes constitution and membership only; it does not authorize a later consequence. Policy may constrain an unsigned proposal but never authorizes execution or substitutes for the complete consequence-bound receipt.
Before receipt validity, consequence fails closed to read-only proposal, simulation, or deterministic sandbox; live evidence remains gated_pending_complete_valid_bound_receipt.
Software deterministically carries out only the exact consequence bound to a complete valid bound PRISM decision receipt from at least two natural-person councilors binding that exact consequence.
The Three-Stage Process — IS / COULD / SHOULD / ACT
This page describes the constitutional architecture of the organism.
For present-tense maturity, keep three surfaces separate:
- code-only health in
SKYZAI_ORG/P-SCORES.md - runtime/public claim boundary in
SKYZAI_ORG/ORGANISM_RUNTIME_TRUTH.md - bounded local proof in dated organ receipts
Constitutional Separation of Cognitive Functions
The Three-Stage Process is the organism's central nervous pipeline. Four organs, four cognitive functions, zero overlap. Each organ performs exactly one function. This is not a design preference; it is a constitutional invariant. Merge two functions and you get corruption.
| Stage | Organ | Function | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IS | TheCircle | Observe | Raw world state | Verified facts |
| COULD | RealityFutures | Price | Verified facts | Probability distributions |
| SHOULD | APU | Recommend | Probabilities + context | Ranked recommendations |
| ACT | Skyzai | Execute deterministically | Unsigned F3 proposal + bound PRISM decision receipt | Receipts + state change |
| ACT | Skyzai | Execute | Signed instructions | Receipts + state change |
Why Separation Is Mandatory
When the observer also decides, perception warps to justify the decision. When the predictor also executes, the prediction becomes manipulation. When the decider also observes, confirmation bias becomes structural.
The Three-Stage Process prevents this by making each transition an explicit, typed, auditable interface.
The Fractal Pattern
The Three-Stage Process repeats at multiple scales:
| Scale | IS | COULD | SHOULD | ACT |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Global organism | TheCircle | RealityFutures | APU | Skyzai |
| Within a trade | market data | probability update | risk/recommendation | execution |
| Within a node | receive | infer | route choice | forward |
Same four stages. Same separation principle. Different substrates.
Current Evidence Note (2026-04-19)
- TheCircle has real local F1 receipts from public RSS sources and canonical packet emission
- APU has one bounded local proof from canonical packet intake to Skyzai F4 acceptance
- Skyzai's F4 bridge self-boots locally and returns stored decision memory
- RealityFutures remains stronger in code/test than in live outward market proof
So the Three-Stage Process is no longer only a design thesis in code, but it is still not uniformly live across all four organs in public/runtime space.
The Four Interfaces
Each organ-to-organ boundary is a formal API contract:
- F1 — TheCircle emits structured observation packets
- F2 — RealityFutures emits priced uncertainty
- F3 — APU emits unsigned proposals; F4 requires a separate, bound PRISM decision receipt from at least two natural-person councilors
- F4 — Skyzai returns execution consequence as new observation material
- F3 — APU emits signed recommendation envelopes
The loop closes. Every execution consequence is supposed to become new observation material for the organism.
What This Means in Practice
A signal can move from:
observation -> priced possibility -> unsigned proposal -> bound PRISM decision receipt from at least two natural-person councilors -> deterministic execution
observation -> priced possibility -> recommendation -> signed execution
In current truth, parts of that loop are locally proven while the strongest live outward settlement and broadcast claims remain narrower.
One-Line Truth
The Three-Stage Process is real as a constitutional and increasingly executable pattern, but public/runtime proof still lags behind the full architectural picture.

- Regenerate from source. If the upstream source changes, regenerate this page rather than editing it independently.

Output: This is content. Route edits to upstream source. Regenerate when source changes.
K3 public-DAV authority history — 2026-07-12
K3 historical reference — not active authority
Current public-DAV boundary — 2026-07-10. Pre-launch target design; nothing here is live. The active DAV is public and targets PRISM, with no K2 runtime, launch, genesis/bootstrap, or fallback dependency. Consequential authority requires at least two natural-person councilors; AI/caste seats stage unsigned proposals only. Before quorum, behavior fails closed to read-only/proposal, simulation, or deterministic sandbox, and a live decision receipt remains gated pending quorum.
