Measurement, then meaning
Seven rules, live
- —expect is declared, never inferred
- —a vital must be monotonic
- —a fallback's vital is its readiness, never its activation
- —measurement and interpretation are published separately
- —insufficient-data is a verdict, not a gap to fill
- —only numbers and timestamps cross the boundary — never prose
Ingest policy
Accepts integer, float, iso8601, declared enums.
Refuses free text from a foreign origin, into any store an autonomous process reads.
Pleroma feeds the Cortex, which acts. Integers cannot carry instructions.

Interpretation is derived from each system's own declared expectation, never from its observed behaviour. A flat counter under continuous reads as quiet; the same flat counter under triggered reads as dormancy. Deltas compare two reads by this desk, so the first read of any system is honestly reported as insufficient-data rather than guessed at.
