Protocol Architecture
The Dikenocracy framework is built through layered protocols. Each protocol defines a bounded part of the system and is designed to be version-aware, testable, and auditable. No higher-layer protocol may violate a lower-layer constraint.
Protocols are identified by their layer prefix (DKP-0 … DKP-8) and a functional code. Each document carries a version number and a status flag (Draft, Candidate, Architecture Lock, Freeze).
Foundation
L0 — Physical Truth
The foundation layer. Defines how observable physical reality is captured, verified, and made available to higher layers.
L1 — Core
Foundational axioms, identity attribution, impact measurement, and justice invariants that all higher layers must respect.
L2 — Economic
Dual-circuit economy rules, tokenized value chains, conditional emission, and stake-based security mechanisms.
L3 — Security
Defense, counter-terrorism, internal security, and physical enforcement within strict constraint boundaries.
L4 — Stability
Crisis handling, error correction, and controlled protocol upgrade mechanisms.
L5 — Human Infrastructure
Culture, education, habitat, information, transport, and work-cycle standards for physical and cognitive dignity.
L6 — Intersystem
Entry and exit protocols for jurisdictions interfacing with the Dikenocracy system.
L7 — Meta / Scope
Applicability boundaries, privacy hard limits, transparency requirements, and AI subject constraints.
L8 — Infrastructure
Continuous audit, external interoperability, and simulation & validation engines.
