- architecture.org becomes a narrative: problem → three-subsystem solution → staged approach → what it means - Moved TAM, revenue paths, analytical frames, strategy/IP links to _index.org - _index.org is now the navigation hub with roadmap table and all catalog links

This section documents the Passepartout architecture — the narrative introduction, the staged build-out, the systemic effects, and the analytical frames that justify it.

| Stage | Delivers | Key cost | Timeline |
|
|
|-------+----------+----------+----------|
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc1-4def-9876-543210abcdef][0 — Now]] | Baseline: conventional computing | Patching treadmill, no deductive guarantees | Today |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc2-4def-9876-543210abcdef][1 — Social Protocol]] | Communication integrity, provable DAG | Crypto overhead, key management | Today |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc3-4def-9876-543210abcdef][2 — Verification]] | Verified gate, capability auth | Policy formalization burden | Today (limited) |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc4-4def-9876-543210abcdef][3 — Lisp Machine]] | Lisp image, Merkle memory, no kernel | Lisp tax, no backward compat, single address space | 2-5yr (soft) / 5-10yr (ASIC) |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc5-4def-9876-543210abcdef][4 — Inference]] | In-process LLM, token interception | ~10x compute/RAM/storage | Server now; consumer 3-5yr |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc6-4def-9876-543210abcdef][5 — Weights]] | Plist-native weights, weight-level provenance | ~100x GPU / ~2-5x ASIC | GPU hybrid now; ASIC 5-10yr |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc7-4def-9876-543210abcdef][6 — Training]] | Verified fine-tuning, neural world model | ~100x fine-tuning only | 3-5yr fine-tuning |
|
|
| [[id:4a1f23b0-abc8-4def-9876-543210abcdef][7 — Remaining]] | Physical threats, oracles, speculation, bootstrap axiom | Mitigations are non-computational | Forever |

**Revenue streams:**
|
|
Total addressable market: ~$960B/year across cloud, AI, OS, social media, payments, productivity, and compliance. The business model is the AWS of provable computing: AGPL infrastructure is free, revenue comes from verification appliances, gate rules, certification, namespace registry, hosted PDS, and a [[id:3c6b0449-a8fb-5b89-b82a-34efb21ef5b5][compute marketplace]].

- [[id:84a537b4-4256-50c8-91f5-dd5b4538418f][Verification appliance]] — certified Lisp Machine at scale
|
|
- [[id:c34940cc-090e-57c4-8020-e78b1d32b96c][Domain gate packages]] — compliance encoded as gate rules
|
