chronograf 0.1.0

Chronograf (RGC): Robot temporal synchronization and manifest builder.

Universal Temporal Kernel for Embodied AI & Robotics

Chronograf is the temporal synchronization subsystem of embodied AI. It defines how a robot perceives, measures, dilates, and distributes time, through the Robot ChronoGraph Specification (RGC).

This repository includes:

The Chronograf Python CLI (chronograf)

The full RGC Specification

time_kernel.rcg – physical & cognitive time model

time_channels.rcg – canonical temporal channel map

time_topology.rcg – directed temporal dependency graph

Tools for manifest hashing, integrity validation, and spec regeneration

Chronograf is the temporal backbone for robotics, distributed AI systems, and inter-agent cognition.

🛠️ Installation

Chronograf is available on PyPI:

pip install chronograf

🚀 Basic Usage

Rebuild and synchronize the robot’s temporal manifest:

chronograf sync --spec-dir spec/00_core/chronograf

This command automatically:

Regenerates chronograf_manifest.rcg

Computes fresh SHA256 checksums

Updates timestamps

Validates structure & consistency

Ensures runtime integrity before deployment
