Pony allows one package docstring per package — collapse the four secondary files' leading docstrings to // comments. ichor now compiles on ponyc 0.64.0 and the smoke wiring runs green (internal perfused, external rejected at D1, cross-organ delivered). Update README + D2 status to reflect it builds; ignore build/.

# D2 — The medium / "the blood" *(DESIGN-FIRST)*
|
|
|
|
## 1. Component
|
|
The perfusion bus the organs share — what circulates between Brain and periphery. The architecture is
|
|
explicit that organs communicate by **perfusion, not direct wiring**; this is that medium. Currently
|
|
**unnamed and unimplemented**.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Status / certainty
|
|
SCAFFOLD · named **Ichor**, Pony scaffold at `src/ichor/` (envelope + broker + D1 barrier + C seam).
|
|
**Compiles & runs** on ponyc 0.64.0 (smoke wiring green). Backing/transport now C3.
|
|
|
|
## 3. Language & location
|
|
**Pony** (`src/ichor/`) — actor-model broker; capabilities give data-race-free sends. Transport split:
|
|
Pony actors = the broker (hosted on the D1 barrier) + **C/Fortran** for the Ada-side binding
|
|
(`ichor_ada_shim.c`). Cross-language organs (R/Octave/Ada/Guile) connect to the broker.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Does / does-not
|
|
- **Does:** carry organ secretions/injections between organs, always *through* Ada (D1) before reaching the Brain.
|
|
- **Does-not:** police (D1), enrich (organs), or hold state (storage E*). It is transport, not gate.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Interface contract (proposed)
|
|
- A typed envelope `{ from_organ, to, payload, provenance }` every organ emits/consumes.
|
|
- All cross-language organs (R Drive-Box, Octave ETR, Ada border, Guile mini-rag) speak this one shape →
|
|
this is what makes the polyglot body interoperate without bespoke per-pair wiring.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Dependencies & stubs
|
|
Everything rides it; nothing it depends on. *Stub today:* in-process function calls + canned envelopes
|
|
(which is exactly how the per-organ specs stub their I/O now — the medium formalizes those stubs).
|
|
|
|
## 7. Invariants / laws
|
|
- **L1 (C5):** perfusion, not direct wiring — no organ holds a hard reference to another's internals.
|
|
- **L2 (C5):** everything reaching the Brain crosses **Ada (D1)** first.
|
|
- **L3 (C1):** envelope carries provenance (so D1 can enforce its provenance laws).
|
|
|
|
## 8. Build steps
|
|
1. **Name it** + choose transport. 2. Define the envelope. 3. Replace the per-organ in-process stubs with
|
|
real medium calls, one edge of the DAG at a time (start R↔Octave for the Drive-Box, A8/A1).
|
|
|
|
## 9. Tests
|
|
Round-trip an envelope between two stub organs; assert it passes through a D1 `admit` check; provenance preserved.
|
|
|
|
## 10. Open items
|
|
- ~~The name~~ (**Ichor**). ~~Transport choice~~ (**Pony broker + C/Fortran Ada seam**).
|
|
- Build `ichor_ada_shim.c` into `libichor_ada` + wire `Barrier.admit` to Ada `Trust_Guard` (needs ponyc).
|
|
- Socket layer for out-of-process organs (in-process routing works today). Whether RDE drives idle-perfusion (C1).
