03 Community

Isolated pods, working in harmony.

Every pod runs alone — that is what makes it safe to change. But the knowledge inside one travels well, and hoarding it helps nobody. The community layer is how a pod design leaves the machine it was built on.

Components in transit between pods
01 What gets shared

A pod is a document, so it can be published like one

scope

The scope statement

What the pod is for, and the adjacent concepts it deliberately excludes.

phrases

The phrase set

The examples that define the concept — the most valuable and most arguable part.

calibration

Thresholds & weights

Where the lines sit, with the reasoning that put them there.

receipt

Receipt template

What an affected party sees when this pod drives a decision.

02 Remix

Fork it, swap a component, keep the credit trail

Components are the interesting part. A distance metric tuned for clinical shorthand may be exactly what a veterinary intake pod needed. A receipt template written for a regulated industry saves a small team a month of drafting.

Forking a pod records its lineage, so the person whose phrase set you started from stays visible however far the design travels.

Planned

Pod registry — browse published designs by domain, read the phrase set before you commit to it.

Planned

Lineage & attribution — forks carry their ancestry, with a diff of what changed and why.

Planned

Component library — metrics, thresholds, receipt templates and calibration sets, shareable on their own.

Under discussion

Shared calibration runs — pool anonymised distance distributions so a new pod starts closer to sane defaults. Only if it can be done without anyone's samples leaving their own instance.

03 Principles

How we intend to run it

Shape it early

None of this is built yet, which means the people who join first get to argue about it. If you have run a shared taxonomy before — a species key, a defect catalogue, a coding manual — we would rather hear from you now than after we have picked the wrong defaults.
