GENERAL EXECUTIVE / EXACTLY ONE
Proposals & plans
Deterministic logic or a model-backed brain, with optional specialists.
OUTPUT · ProposedAction EXPERIMENTALLOCAL-FIRST · PROVIDER-NEUTRAL
From commands to durable intent,
without surrendering control.
Engine keeps ACHIEVE and MAINTAIN goals alive across software and physical worlds. Replaceable brains propose; the Heart preserves state and continuity; independent policy authorizes; fresh observations establish what actually changed.
LLM proposal ≠ authorityPrediction ≠ observationPolicy ≠ physical safety
System boundaries
Replaceable cognition. Durable operations.
Interaction leads to intelligence, intelligence proposes to Engine, and Engine connects to the target world. Exactly one general executive may use specialists, but no brain gets a hidden route to authority or execution.

Events wake the Heart; a fresh observation establishes the current world. Missing or stale coverage remains UNKNOWN, not automatically success or failure.
Composition
Every Heart has exactly one general executive.
Deterministic
One general executive uses fixed logic. Policy preserves the same authority boundary without a model provider.
Model-backed
One general executive uses a model for deliberation and proposals. Policy still decides whether an action is authorized.
Multiple specialists
Zero or more specialist brains assist the general executive. They advise within scope and receive no execution rights.
