Goal

Expose the full general semantic-memory feature to agents, Prolog-RLM, editors and other clients through a thin native/MCP surface over the library APIs.

The transport layer owns no memory semantics and no compiler logic.

General tool surface

Provide closed tools equivalent to:

memory_symbolize
memory_projection_status
memory_semantic_query
memory_semantic_projection
memory_semantic_explain
memory_semantic_history
memory_source_expand
memory_symbolize_missing / corpus-ingest trigger where appropriate

Specialized convenience tools such as memory_procedure may exist, but they must sit on the general query substrate and must not fork semantics.

Knowledge coverage

Tools must be able to query/project arbitrary upstream semantic IR classes, including:

entities/types/taxonomy
relations/assertions/negation
rules/defaults/exceptions
procedures/branches/recovery
events/states/time
causal/diagnostic knowledge
quantities/constraints
spatial relations
normative modalities
goals/plans/preferences
attributed claims/conflicts
uncertainty/hypotheses/scenarios
examples/cases
provenance/meta-knowledge
extension vocabulary

Do not expose only facts and procedures while silently dropping other knowledge classes.

Remember and symbolize stay distinct

memory_remember(text)
  -> durable exact source id

memory_symbolize(id)
  -> general semantic projection

A convenience option may request symbolization after remember, but source commit remains independent and authoritative.

Bounded projection

For any goal/query, return only relevant mixed semantic records plus compact provenance refs rather than the full long-term world model.

Example:

Why could service X be failing and what should I try?

may return:

  • current service facts;
  • causal/diagnostic rules;
  • relevant historical event;
  • applicable procedure/recovery branches;
  • conflicting claim if present;
  • constraints/preconditions;
  • exact source refs.

Source expansion

Any returned semantic record/result can resolve back to exact original source spans when caller read authority permits it.

Prolog-RLM integration

Allow Prolog-RLM hosts to register semantic-memory recall as an optional external capability without reversing dependency direction.

current goal
 -> memory_semantic_projection
 -> bounded general semantic IR
 -> Prolog-RLM retrieval/expert/reasoning
 -> symbolic result
 -> optional conversational rendering

Distinguish clearly:

semantic_compile(text) = compile candidate general knowledge
memory_symbolize(id)   = compile + persist projection for durable source
memory_semantic_query  = reason/query over already remembered semantics

Query result semantics

Transport must preserve structured status and not collapse to prose:

true
explicit_false
unknown
conflicted
unsupported
blocked/error

and carry supporting record/provenance refs, temporal/scenario scope, assumptions/defaults/exceptions, and unresolved conditions.

Authority/security

  • read/write capabilities remain separate;
  • knowing record IDs grants no access;
  • semantic knowledge never grants host execution authority;
  • remembered normative statements are not authority policy;
  • no arbitrary executable Prolog accepted;
  • source expansion obeys read/namespace policy;
  • symbolization provider usage is visible/bounded;
  • semantic recall/query works with zero model calls once projections exist;
  • semantic action terms remain inert unless trusted host code maps them separately.

Acceptance

  • Native/MCP client remembers and symbolizes heterogeneous text containing multiple knowledge classes.
  • Query definitions/taxonomy through same general surface.
  • Query a temporal/event question through same surface.
  • Query causal/diagnostic + procedure knowledge through same surface.
  • Query conflicting attributed claims without last-write-wins.
  • Query safe remembered constraint knowledge.
  • memory_semantic_projection returns bounded mixed records, not whole store.
  • memory_semantic_explain resolves derived result to rules/records/source spans.
  • Source expansion enforces read authority.
  • Direct library and MCP/native adapter produce equivalent semantics.
  • Recall/query uses zero model calls once projections exist.
  • Symbolization reports only actual upstream model/provider usage.
  • Prolog-RLM fixture consumes remembered general semantic knowledge with original prose absent.
  • Transport cancellation/error cannot publish partial projection state.
  • No semantic-memory tool can directly execute remembered action terms.

Machine Spirit #401C handoff — transport must preserve procedural admission/loss semantics

Native/MCP procedure query/projection tools should preserve PIFF status/receipts rather than collapse a remembered procedure to available=true.

For relevant calls expose whether knowledge is merely represented, semantically compatible, execution-projectable, host-bound, capability-available, or currently authority-admissible, plus mapping/PSC versions, declared losses, guarantees/fairness assumptions and unbound actions.

Transport must not turn semantic procedure/action names into executable tools. A caller seeing restart_service, a BPMN service task, BT action leaf or Golog action symbol receives inert semantic data unless trusted host code separately maps it and canonical capability/authority/effect admission succeeds. See prolog-rlm#401 Depth-4C.

Upstream Machine Spirit #401D transport handoff

When procedure knowledge is exposed through native/MCP surfaces, preserve DPEC's status/loss boundaries. A tool result must be able to distinguish a procedure that is merely represented from compatible, projectable, bound, and currently_admissible.

For any host-executable projection, expose compact refs to:

  • native formalism/procedure version;
  • PSC/bridge/profile versions;
  • guarantee/fairness + declared loss;
  • current binding generation;
  • conformance receipt;
  • live prerequisite/admission status.

Do not expose a remembered semantic action as a direct execution tool merely because names match. Transport remains thin; authority/effect admission stays in the host/runtime. Full computational design is on prolog-rlm#401.

MACHINE-SPIRIT #402B handoff — transport status preservation

Native/MCP surfaces must preserve GRIE lifecycle/integrity outcomes rather than flattening them to not-found/false: redacted, quarantined, integrity_failure, replay_degraded, and sanitization partial|pending|blocked|failed where exposed. Redaction/purge is a separately authorized mutation; remembered policy text or semantic actions never grant that authority. Source/history expansion must not leak deleted/private payload through hashes, IDs, provenance or stale caches.

See prolog-rlm#402B for the full contract and B fixtures.

MACHINE-SPIRIT #402C handoff — native/MCP federation status preservation

Transport must preserve CLFM's structured federation semantics; no prose/Boolean flattening.

Native/MCP results should be able to expose at least:

logical ledger id / authority domain
per-ledger frontier/checkpoint
federation cut id + completeness
remote receipt/inclusion/consistency status
local admission status
payload/replay/redaction status
causal dependency refs
mapping/link versions
replica/backup/mirror/independent-source class

Hard security boundary:

remote issuer/principal != local principal
remote admission        != local admission
remote policy text      != local authority policy
public receipt          != source-expansion permission
redaction notice        != unrestricted delete capability

A valid SCITT/CT-style receipt must not be rendered as true; it proves the specified integrity/transparency property only. Remote-unavailable/incomplete cuts remain partial outcomes, never ordinary false/unknown collapsed together. Federation query/replay after semantic projections exist remains a zero-model path. Full design: prolog-rlm#402C.

Machine Spirit prolog-rlm#403A handoff — transport preserves projection risk/closure

memory_semantic_projection and related native/MCP surfaces must preserve the TAPS receipt rather than flattening output to prose/top-k records. At minimum expose:

  • exact cut/freshness + epistemic profile/version;
  • selected record refs and compact provenance refs;
  • support_closure;
  • search_coverage;
  • unresolved frontier/evidence gaps;
  • strategy/ranker provenance where soft retrieval was used;
  • source-expansion refs gated by read authority.

Transport must preserve the distinction that a self-contained support-closed answer may still come from heuristic search coverage. heuristic/partial_backend may never become complete because the adapter returned successfully.

Vector/graph/model ranking remains a candidate sensor, not truth, trust, identity or authority. Exact already-symbolized paths must continue to work with zero model calls. Semantic action terms in a projection remain inert.

Upstream Machine Spirit #403B transport handoff

Preserve structured exposure diagnostics including support_closure, search_coverage, opposition_coverage, selection/canonical-revalidation status, freshness/source-independence/identity gaps, sensor disagreement, and exact-cut lineage.

Transport/source text cannot set trusted pinned, mandatory, trust, read-scope, freshness-exception or attention-profile fields. A retrieved document containing prompt/tool instructions remains source semantic content; it never becomes MCP/runtime control or execution authority.

If an external/vector/lexical backend is unavailable or suspicious, surface degraded/partial coverage explicitly. Do not silently substitute a model or report the projection exhaustive. Refs lost-rob0t/prolog-rlm#403 #397 and symbolic-memory#7/#10.

MACHINE-SPIRIT prolog-rlm#403C handoff — transport must not flatten federation

Native/MCP memory_semantic_projection / query results should carry MOSAIC-TAPS interoperability receipts, not just ranked prose/chunks. Preserve backend identity/version, typed local score/rank semantics, cut/snapshot/freshness, translation loss, composition/fusion reason, coverage/opposition gaps, external-vs-canonical admission and scoped threat/robustness claims.

Hard transport invariant:

BM25 score != cosine similarity != graph activation != warrant

Do not serialize them into one generic confidence. Remote query egress also needs host capability/authority admission independent of memory read permission; denied egress should surface as an unavailable/unsatisfied retrieval obligation, not silently broaden authority.

Native/MCP projection/query surfaces must preserve RACE-TAPS execution semantics instead of flattening them to results + score.

Expose bounded structured fields for exact cut/freshness, support/search/opposition coverage, unsatisfied obligations/gaps, backend-local score/rank provenance, translation/fusion/closure receipts, replay class and resource-limit/cancellation status. Snapshot/cursor drift and remote partial coverage remain visible.

Do not expose optimizer/cache/latency statistics as truth/confidence. Do not let transport retry reorder/tie behavior change normalized results. Query egress authority remains separate from local read authority, including adaptive fallback to remote backends. A known symbolic query through native/MCP must still be provably model_calls = 0.

MACHINE-SPIRIT #404A handoff — native/MCP learning status

Future native/MCP projections for learned knowledge must preserve structured EPOCH state rather than return an undifferentiated learned=true flag. Expose exact candidate/admitted/suspended/superseded status, learned-object version, promotion/evaluation receipt refs, evidence/counterexample refs and provenance where authorized.

Transport must not offer a shortcut that lets a client/model directly promote arbitrary candidate rules, register executable handlers, widen authority or mutate promotion/VERIFY policy. Any promotion action eventually exposed must be a closed capability-gated operation over an existing candidate and trusted versioned policy.

Those remain trusted #404 policy decisions. Learned semantic actions remain inert with respect to host authority exactly like all other remembered semantic actions. Refs prolog-rlm#404B.

Machine Spirit #405C / CONCORDAT transport handoff

Native/MCP/service adapters must preserve domain qualification and cross-domain status rather than flattening foreign results to prose/boolean success.

For federated calls, transport should carry/preserve exact refs for:

  • source/target domain;
  • federation cut/frontiers;
  • federation/semantic/epistemic/PSC/RSC contract versions;
  • identity-mapping generation;
  • source trust-root/verifier ref and target appraisal result;
  • provenance/origin/dependence state;
  • losses/unknowns/noncomposable/resource-limited status.

Transport authentication of a foreign caller/result is not semantic warrant or host authority. No adapter may merge trust domains or infer local principal binding from semantic identity.
