The cognitive layer between people and technology
Conceptual architecture — distinct from any single product surface. This page explains the stack. It does not claim every layer is a commercially available product today.
How the system relates
Architecture map
Host / Canonical content
Purpose: Serve authoritative content and remain usable without Quuipu.
Owns: Canonical documents and public presentation fallback.
Does not own: Inventing facts or silent redirects.
Boundary: Host remains authoritative for source content.

Semantic layer
Purpose: Transform information organization without fabricating meaning.
Owns: Structure, clarity, and relationships under governed rules.
Does not own: Inventing facts or upgrading provenance.
Boundary: Does not manufacture semantic results.
Related: Research · Semantic Integrity
Cognitive runtime
Purpose: Make certified cognitive capabilities possible.
Owns: Bounded cognitive resolution when claimable.
Does not own: The public website surface itself.
Boundary: Core is not the public website. Invocation is not cognition.

Experience projection
Purpose: Compose adaptive presentation under visitor control.
Owns: Organization and explanation of the same facts.
Does not own: Hidden profiling or unrestricted assistants.
Boundary: Declared context required; Standard Experience always available.

Architecture layers
-
Architecture
Content → Semantic Transformation → Cognitive Resolution → Experience.
-
Cognitive Runtime
Authoritative Quuipu runtime.
-
Context Model
You declare what you want to understand. Declared context is not hidden profiling.
-
Semantic Layer
Transform information organization without fabricating meaning.
Host vs Core boundary
Security
Governance at the boundary
Developers
Integration surfaces (SDK, API, web components) remain progressively disclosed.
Public developer documentation is published only when contracts are ready. Today, start from the overview and the Cognisphere Web Protocol publication.
