The Canon — 970+ Files, One Genome
Status: pre-launch. This page describes target design; this document does not establish a deployed service.
Current reading — 2026-09-28
The canon is a source-owned library of framework and product designs, not proof that every historical table is adopted or deployed. Supply, rights, revenue splits, NAV redemption, ordering, atomicity, archetypes and amendment thresholds require their own current owner dispositions. Receipt presence does not prove truth; a fair-ordering design does not by itself prove no MEV or front-running. [I]
The intertwined tables below are retained predecessor proposals, not current economic or amendment rules. Public-DAV consequence remains behind its applicable exact-bound external authority. See invariants, distribution proposals, exit and current status.
Historical canon inventory and rule tables — not current terms, guarantees or amendment instructions
The Canon is the constitutional library of the Skyzai organism. It contains every axiom, every protocol specification, every invariant rule, and every foundational document that governs the organism's behavior. It is held by the Foundation and is intended to be burned into every DAV at genesis. Treat that genome-language as constitutional design unless a runtime lane has explicitly proven the distribution path.
What the Canon Contains
| Section | Files | Content |
|---|---|---|
| Seven Axioms | 7 | The foundational axioms (A1-A7) from which everything else derives. A1: P = phi x nu. A7: Self-correction mandatory. |
| VIVEKA | ~50 | The philosophical tablets. Derivation of the equation. The sphere proof. The Rosetta Stone. The D-levels. |
| SoResFi | ~120 | Sovereign Resilient Finance protocol specification. The four primitives. The routing rules. The settlement logic. |
| PRISM | ~80 | The governance framework. DAV structure. Voting rules. Amendment process. Directorate specifications. |
| LP-100 | ~60 | The liquidity protocol. Token economics. ZAI/SKY dual asset model. Conservation law (K1: total ZAI = 100). |
| Soma Protocol | ~40 | The health/biometric framework. Wearable integration. ZK proof generation. Health assurance scoring. |
| K-Invariants | 9 | K0-K9. The constitutional constraints. No discretion. Binary: satisfied or violated. |
| Security Specifications | ~100 | Cryptographic requirements. Key management. Threat models. Adversarial scenarios. |
| Organ Specifications | ~200 | Detailed specs for each organ (Circle, ReFu, APU, Skyzai). Interfaces. Failure modes. P-score targets. |
| Amendment Protocol | ~15 | How the Canon itself can be changed. Evidence tiers required. Cooling periods. Supermajority thresholds. |
The Genome Metaphor (Not a Metaphor)
In the target architecture, the Canon functions as the genome. Every DAV instantiated in the organism would receive a complete copy of the Canon at genesis. The DAV's behavior is constrained by the Canon the way a cell's behavior is constrained by its DNA.
- Genome (Canon): Immutable instructions that define the organism's constitution.
- Epigenome (Configuration): Per-DAV settings that activate or silence specific Canon sections. A DAV focused on trading activates LP-100 sections. A DAV focused on health activates Soma sections.
- Phenotype (Runtime behavior): What the DAV actually does, given its genome (Canon) and epigenome (configuration) in its environment (market conditions, user preferences).
The K-Invariants
Nine invariants are the hardest constraints in the Canon. They are not guidelines. They are not best practices. They are binary: satisfied or violated. In the target protocol, a transaction that violates any K-invariant is rejected. No exceptions. No overrides.
| K | Name | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| K0 | No Receipt, No Reality | Every state change must produce a cryptographic receipt; the target external anchor is Arweave, while local proof lanes may use append-only local receipts until full anchoring is wired |
| K1 | Conservation | Total ZAI = 100. Never more, never less. |
| Single-owner (private-DAV reference) | Mortal Substrate | Private-DAV reference only: under applicable law, a Natural Person signs their own exact private act. |
| SPLIT.PHI (legacy bare K3) | Phi-Split | Revenue splits at phi ratio (61.8/38.2) between equity holders and operations — tag SPLIT.PHI, not bare K3 |
| K4 | Grace Exit | Any participant can exit at NAV with everything they brought |
| K5 | Truth Gate | Transparency score >= 90% for capital-raising operations to function |
| K6 | Zero Extraction | eta = 0. Fees exist to cover costs. Rent does not exist. |
| K7 | Fair Ordering | All transactions ordered by hashgraph consensus. No MEV. No front-running. |
| K8 | Atomic Settlement | All multi-step operations complete atomically or revert entirely |
| K9 | Immutable Archetype | DAV archetype declared at genesis, cannot be changed |
Current public-DAV consequence is separate from the private invariant row above: the signer(s) required by applicable law, the entity's governing instrument, or a valid competent mandate bind the exact consequence in a complete valid bound PRISM decision receipt; PRISM records and verifies only, and AI/caste seats stage unsigned proposals.
See K1-K9 Overview for full definitions and enforcement mechanisms.
Immutability and Amendment
The Canon is immutable by default. Amendments require:
- [B] or [E] evidence (see Evidence Tiers) that the amendment improves P (phi x nu)
- Public comment period (minimum 90 days)
- Supermajority approval (66%+ of active DAVs by stake weight)
- Implementation cooling period (minimum 30 days after approval)
- Automatic rollback trigger if P-score drops post-amendment
This is deliberately slow. Constitutional change should be hard. The organism's stability depends on the Canon's stability.
Distribution
The target architecture is that every DAV receives the Canon as a Merkle tree. Each document is a leaf, and the root hash can be published on SPECTRE. Any DAV can then verify that its Canon copy matches the authoritative root. Treat that as constitutional design, not blanket present-tense deployment truth.
The Canon is not a PDF on a website. It is a cryptographically verified, universally distributed, constitutionally governed code base. The genome.
