CORTEX_
Structured context layer. Your codebase gains persistent memory that compounds with every session.
Patterns, directives, living docs, anomaly detection — all inspectable, all versionable, all compounding.
MEMORY SURFACE
What Cortex actually captures.
MUST / NEVER / PREFER / AVOID — extracted from real decisions, enforced automatically.
Proven solutions forged from outcomes. Confidence evolves with every application.
What failed — captured so the same mistake never repeats.
ekkOS_CONTEXT.md — auto-generated, auto-committed, always current.
CAPABILITY SURFACE
Seven intelligence layers.
DIRECTIVES
Persistent rules. MUST / NEVER / PREFER — enforced across every session, visible, editable, versionable.
PATTERNS
What worked — forged from outcomes, not documentation. Success rates evolve with every application.
LIVING DOCS
ekkOS_CONTEXT.md — compiled from sessions, commits, events. Auto-committed to your repo.
ANOMALY DETECTION
Health monitoring. Detects regressions, diagnoses root causes, forges defensive patterns.
REPO INTELLIGENCE
Knows where logic lives, what conventions apply, which boundaries matter.
CONTEXT INJECTION
The right context at the right time. Model never flies blind into unfamiliar code.
DREAM FORGE
Overnight recombination. Cross-pollinates patterns, prunes weak ones, proposes refined directions.
CAPTURE → STRUCTURE → INJECT → HEAL → EVOLVE
The intelligence pipeline.
CAPTURE
Every session produces decisions, corrections, outcomes. Cortex records them all.
STRUCTURE
Raw traces become patterns, anti-patterns, directives, living docs — committed to your repo.
INJECT
Model reads ekkOS_CONTEXT.md before touching code. Patterns and directives injected per turn.
HEAL
ANS detects anomalies, diagnoses root causes, forges defensive patterns — committed to git.
EVOLVE
Dream Forge recombines winning patterns overnight. The system wakes up sharper.
THREE LAYERS. ONE SYSTEM.
Each handles a distinct phase. Together: a closed loop.
Runtime continuity. Context alive across sessions. Health monitoring. ANS triggers.
Structured memory. Patterns, directives, living docs that persist and compound.
ANS diagnoses regressions. Dream Forge recombines overnight. Each event committed.
Pulse monitors. Cortex remembers. The immune system heals. A closed loop where the codebase gets stronger every session.
COMPOUND INTELLIGENCE
Context that gets stronger over time.
Initial directives and first patterns captured from real work.
High-confidence patterns surface automatically. Weak hypotheses pruned.
Living docs reflect cumulative architecture decisions. Retrieval is precise.
System knows conventions, preferred approaches, boundary conditions — all inspectable.
Every session sharpens the system. Patterns gain confidence. Weak directions get pruned. Memory that is inspectable, not mystical.
YOUR CODEBASE
