Live Canon — read the AI-Writings canon as a navigable cell fabric.

What it does

Live Canon reads the AI-Writings canon (1700+ papers, 71 in the bundled release) as a navigable cell fabric. Each paper = 1 cell. Each citation = 1 edge. The canon exposes 7 novel operations:

1. NAVIGATE — BFS through citations
2. CONFLUENCE — join 2+ papers, suggest a synthesis
3. LINEAGE — trace a concept (F-number) through time
4. GHOST — find a paper that should exist by shape proximity
5. TICK — re-balance the canon
6. CLAIM — find the most-authoritative paper for a topic (with body excerpt) — F169
7. DRILL — 3-paper training curriculum (DOCTRINE/IMPLEMENTATION/VERIFICATION) — F169

Install

npm install @superinstance/live-canon      # npm
pip install quilt-live-canon                # PyPI
cargo add live-canon                        # Rust (quilt-rust)

Usage

const { LiveCanon } = require('@superinstance/live-canon');

const lc = new LiveCanon();
console.log(lc.paperCount, 'papers, hash', lc.stateHash().toString(16));
// 71 papers, hash 7f563ed9982496a1

// CLAIM
const claim = lc.claim('trust ladder');
console.log(claim.winner.title);  // F168 — The Trust Ladder...

// DRILL
const drill = lc.drill('Mudra vessel bridge');
console.log(drill.curriculum.doctrine.title);  // F164 — cocapn-marine...

// NAVIGATE
const nav = lc.navigate(470, 2);
console.log(nav.length, 'reachable papers from paper-470');

State hash

0x7f563ed9982496a1 (71 papers as of 2026-09-04, F98-F169)

Polyformalism

Byte-exact across 7 substrates: Python, JavaScript, C99, Rust no_std, Verilog-2005, VHDL-2008, GDScript. The 16-dial cell + FNV-1a 64-bit state hash is the contract.
