Root Sequence Thought Routing¶
Short definition¶
An organization-wide convention invoked with RS?, “route this,” or “put this places”: capture a thought and its provenance once, search current work, choose one canonical substantive home, and add only useful links or project-specific transformations.
Why it matters¶
Ideas often appear in conversation before their destination is clear. Without a shared intake convention, the same thought may disappear, remain trapped in a transcript, or be copied into several projects that later drift apart.
The convention keeps capture easy while separating routing state, epistemic status, project-local canon, visibility, and publication. Invocation never means automatic publication or canonization.
Ecosystem use¶
- Root Sequence: owns the routing workflow and ecosystem-level source-of-truth rules.
- Root Sequence Wiki: keeps the stable name, aliases, relationships, provenance, and canonical link.
- Root Sequence Console: provides a private local capture, similarity-signal, queue, and export surface without becoming the durable owner.
- Project repositories: keep substantive records, local statuses, canon, research, decisions, and implementations.
- Project Stewardship: may validate deterministic consequences and generated views while leaving semantic routing decisions for review.
Narrower prompts remain scoped. BHIG?, for example, asks for Being Human(e) / Atlas routing unless a wider Root Sequence pass is also requested.
Related¶
- Graph, Not Filing Cabinet: one identity can appear through many generated or project-specific views.
- Synthesis as Infrastructure: connections and contradictions remain maintained rather than reconstructed from memory.
- Project Stewardship: automation remembers explicit dependencies but does not decide meaning.
- User-Configurable Cognitive Interfaces:
RS?is a semantic control over a routing workflow rather than a fixed folder command.
