- Rename 'three-pronged' folder to 'knowledge-layers' — prong metaphor
was misleading (implied parallel tines), replaced with epistemic layers
(deductive base, empirical middle, probabilistic oracle — vertical stack)
- Collapse 11 overlapping files into 3 coherent documents:
- knowledge-layers/_index.org: core framework (two engines + one store,
World Model formula, 0-14 layer table, provenance store design,
conflict resolution, cold-start, stage mapping)
- knowledge-layers/practical-implications.org: design-world-aware-of-
physics, 10 powers, Schafmeister existence proof, epistemic transparency
- knowledge-layers/neurological-empirical.org: neural networks in
provenance framework (kept intact)
- Relocate wolfram/mathematica and Schafmeister docs to ideas/viability/
- Integrate into main architecture _index.org:
- Gate: expanded from two vectors (ACL2+LLM) to three (deductive,
provenance/empirical, LLM oracle)
- Autodidactic loop: split into Track 1 (deductive hardening, fast)
and Track 2 (empirical validation, slow, experimental-feedback-driven)
- See also: added Knowledge Layers cross-reference
- Add all-lisp geometry engine note (ideas/lisp-geometry-engine.org) as
concrete illustration of the empirical layer's effect on design work

* The Sovereign User Journey
|
||
|
||
This document outlines the cohesive, narrative user journey of the [[id:1d074690-a279-59cb-b91d-e9a22ae104ad][Social Protocol]] platform, illustrating how the underlying technical primitives (Master Keys, DIDs, PDS, Lightning, and Smart Contracts) translate into a seamless product experience.
|
||
|
||
** Phase 1: Onboarding (The Birth of the Persona)
|
||
|
||
- *Download & Seed:* The user downloads the app. The very first action the app takes is generating a cryptographic Seed Phrase (the Master Key / Anima). This anchors their sovereignty immediately.
|
||
- *Persona Creation:* The user is not asked to create a global "Username." Instead, they create context-specific Personas, for example, a "Work" persona and a "Social" persona. Behind the scenes, the app derives two distinct DIDs from the single Master Key.
|
||
- *The Founder Connection (Minors):* For younger users (minors), a parent or guardian can scan a QR code to "Co-sign" the identity inception. This immediately establishes the Succession Logic and delegated authority outlined in the Identity specifications.
|
||
- *PDS Selection:* The user is prompted with: "Where would you like to store your data?" They are presented with options and might select a Community PDS run by a local NGO or guild they trust, ensuring their data sovereignty from day one.
|
||
|
||
** Phase 2: Consumption & "Seeding" (The Data Economy)
|
||
|
||
- *Choosing a Lens:* The user navigates to the "Marketplace" and selects a curation algorithm, such as the "Scientific Signal" Lens. Their feed instantly rearranges to prioritize verified research and high-signal content, bypassing centralized algorithmic manipulation.
|
||
- *Micro-Earning (Bandwidth Sharing):* The user watches a video. In their settings, a toggle is enabled: "Support this creator by seeding." As they watch, their phone (via WebRTC) serves bits of the video to 3 other nearby users, acting as an ephemeral CDN node.
|
||
- *The Reward:* Because they provided bandwidth and aided the network, the creator’s PDS sends a micro-transaction "Thank You" of 5 sats ($0.002) directly to the user’s integrated Lightning wallet. While small, this passive income covers the cost of their own PDS hosting for the month.
|
||
|
||
** Phase 3: The Civil Contract (Digital Law)
|
||
|
||
- *The Deal:* User A wants to purchase a custom-built chair from User B.
|
||
- *The Contract:* They click "Create Contract" and select a standardized Markdown Template for "Handmade Goods."
|
||
- *Arbitration Choice:* Both parties agree to use the "Carpenters' Guild" as the Level 2 Arbitrator in case of a dispute.
|
||
- *The Lock:* User A pays the Lightning invoice. The funds move into a HODL Escrow. User B sees the "Funds Locked" status and confidently begins building the chair.
|
||
- *The Delivery:* User B delivers the chair. User A scans a QR code physically attached to the chair, which acts as the cryptographic release of the Preimage, instantly settling the smart contract and paying User B.
