aiking-core

The substantive engine of the AI King distribution. Wires together the governance stack (Concinno guards + Sancio runtime), ZIQ retrieval, FieldRead memory, PSYCHE chat-completion gateway, and the Cerno 7-step mother-agent cycle.

Install

pip install aiking-core            # base engine
pip install "aiking-core[body]"    # adds persona-api adapters (see caveat)

You normally do not install aiking-core directly — pip install aiking pulls it transitively and exposes the curated public surface.

Entry points (group aiking.core_engine)

ziq        = aiking_core.ziq:get_engine
fieldread  = aiking_core.fieldread:get_engine
cerno      = aiking_core.cerno:get_engine

The aiking shell discovers these via importlib.metadata rather than direct imports, preserving the Apache-2.0 / AGPL boundary.

License

Dual-licensed:

• AGPL-3.0-or-later with §7 Additional Terms — see LICENSE.
• Commercial license for entities that cannot or will not comply with AGPL §13 (network-use / SaaS clause), or whose policy bans AGPL-licensed dependencies — see COMMERCIAL_LICENSE.md.

If you are not sure which applies, the AGPL terms govern by default.

Migration window (1.0.x)

aiking_core.ziq.retrieval imports concinno.core.state_store.StateStore, and several governance / hooks submodules import from concinno.* and persona.* during the Phase 2 migration. The relevant concinno>=5.3.0 dep is declared automatically; persona-api>=2.1.0 is opt-in via the [body] extra because persona-api 2.1.0 has an upstream from .engine import PersonaEngine self-import bug. Wait for 2.1.1 if you need the body-engine path.
