V_SERIES_AMBIENT_RAIL.md and X-1 of the
implementation ledger
Decision summary#
The three flagged assets have now been traced to their actual source and evaluated against every plausible Rail component:
- The Aphrodite game-bridge family is six private, process-local game simulation packages. None is a production adapter to the named external domain, and none is adopted by the Rail.
- Calliope Stage is adopted as V3 Stage's normative concert-design contract. That adoption is already implemented at the durable cook-candidate boundary; Calliope is not treated as a renderer or playable-media source.
- Concordia's real homes are the canonical contract package, mediation orchestrator, and Oshun workbench integration. It is a separate cooperative mediation product rather than a Rail substrate, so it is not adopted.
This is intentionally not a package-name matching exercise. Reuse is accepted only when the existing asset owns the same authority and can preserve the Rail's truth, consent, absence, and provenance invariants.
1. Aphrodite game-bridge adapters#
Family-level finding#
The phrase libs/aphrodite/* game-bridge adapters resolves to exactly these six
packages:
@aphrodite/hathor-game-bridge@aphrodite/isis-game-bridge@aphrodite/lilith-game-bridge@aphrodite/maya-bridge@aphrodite/nike-game-bridge@aphrodite/nyx-game-bridge
They are substantial, typed, well-tested local engines, but “bridge” does not
mean they call their namesake product. Their production sources have no import
from any external domain package. State is held in in-memory maps and
module-local counters; time comes directly from Date.now(), and several
features use local seeded or unseeded random generation. They expose no durable
repository, authenticated service client, consent/provenance receipt, or media
artifact boundary. Their completeness is therefore completeness as Aphrodite
game simulations, not as cross-domain production integrations.
| Package | What the code actually owns | Plausible Rail overlap | Reuse verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hathor game bridge | In-memory world templates, NPC personalities, narrative arcs, quests, dialogue, and lore consistency | RD.2's V5 newspaper, Mind Palace, or world windows | Do not adopt. RD.2 requires projections from the V5 world's actual persisted simulation history. Generating a parallel game world would fabricate the events the newspaper must report. |
| Isis game bridge | Local level/dialogue/NPC/difficulty/music/SFX/background generators returning descriptors | Case content, Stage media, or automatic direction | Do not adopt. It has no model/provider execution, rendered bytes, immutable delivery, or provenance evidence. Treating its generated descriptors as content would violate the Rail's no-fabricated-content rule. |
| Lilith game bridge | Meditation “power,” biometric ability modifiers, consciousness realms, and a breathwork minigame | X-4 Tara presence or RA.7 Motion | Do not adopt. It is an Aphrodite game mechanic with caller-supplied biometrics, power/reward semantics, and random realm discovery. Tara must use Tara's real breath pacing, and Motion already owns the humane, evidence-bound guided-act path. |
| Maya bridge | Asset import, ECS mapping, renderer, physics, and network simulations | RD.1 My Realm / Realm Surf | Do not adopt. This is an Aphrodite game-runtime bridge, not Maya Crucible or the Mawu economy. It even synthesizes output sizes; it cannot evidence an economy delta, realm state, rendered asset, or network session. |
| Nike game bridge | Exercise-rep mapping, heart-rate difficulty, calorie rewards, and fitness challenges | RA.7 Motion or future mobile micro-acts | Do not adopt. Its calorie rewards, loot, difficulty multipliers, and caller-supplied sensor readings conflict with the Rail's no-guilt/no-punishment posture and do not supply Motion's authoritative program or completion evidence. |
| Nyx game bridge | Caller-populated star maps and orreries, in-memory astronomical schedules, game triggers, constellation effects, and performer effects | X-4 Nyx sky-and-awe | Do not adopt. The canonical @nyx/ephemeris and @nyx/sky-clock already own observer-aware ephemerides, visibility, location consent, and tonight-only materialisation. Importing the Aphrodite game model would add a weaker second astronomy contract and could turn caller-authored events into apparent sky truth. |
Because every member is rejected for Rail reuse, this family creates no X-1 implementation follow-up. The packages remain valid Aphrodite-owned game code; the verdict is about Rail authority, not package quality.
2. Calliope Stage specification#
Source and authority#
@calliope/stage exports the typed concert concept,
setlist, stage, screen, venue, camera, VFX, audience, streaming-plan, and
VOD-plan schemas plus 30 deterministic design services. Its cross-object
refinements bind artist, concept, setlist, stage, venue, camera, VFX, and
audience identities. Its streaming layer describes protocols, quality profiles,
perspectives, chat surfaces, and package plans; it does not produce encoded
bytes, a delivery URI, a manifest, a checksum, or a playback observation.
Reuse verdict: adopt as a contract, never as media evidence#
The adoption follow-up is already implemented by RA.8:
RA8_V3_STAGE_CHANNEL_INTEGRATION.mdrecords Calliope as the normative Stage specification and keeps V3's tenant, rights, authoring, export, and provenance authority separate.candidate-source.tsimports the canonicalConcertSetlistSchema,VirtualCameraSystemSchema, andStreamingIntegrationLayerSchemafrom@calliope/stage/contractsrather than copying them.- The durable candidate projection requires exact identities across the V3 and Calliope objects before the cook can read a candidate.
- The cook still requires separately rendered bytes, immutable storage, exact delivery verification, and a playable catalog record. A Calliope plan alone cannot become a Rail item.
No new X-1 follow-up is open: the one adopted reuse has a concrete owner and is already complete. RA.8's explicit production-content and deployment gaps remain RA.8/HG-2 concerns; they are not evidence that the Calliope contract adoption is missing.
3. Concordia#
Located homes#
libs/oshun/concordia-integration is only the thin Oshun surface integration,
not Concordia's primary implementation. The actual ownership map is:
| Concern | Canonical home | Current authority |
|---|---|---|
| Domain contracts and policies | @concordia/contracts |
Case, agreement, consent, privacy, hard-boundary, escalation, reviewer, settlement, evidence, and mediation schemas/algorithms |
| Runtime coordination | @concordia/orchestrator |
Fastify health/OpenAPI/discovery gateway plus pure mediation workers, event routing, observability, and tenant admission |
| Oshun navigation/event/telemetry registration | @oshun/concordia-integration |
Typed descriptors for concordia.* subscriptions, workbench navigation slots, viewer-role projection, and PII-redacted telemetry |
| User-facing product surface | studio/concordia-workbench |
Multi-route case intake, evidence, preference, frontier, draft, review, execution, and audit workspace |
The orchestrator's mediation algorithms are real and tested, although its case workers are not yet mounted as HTTP case routes. That limitation does not make the package a generic event bus or review widget: the contracts, events, navigation roles, workers, and telemetry categories are all specifically about cooperative mediation cases.
Reuse verdict: do not adopt into the current Rail#
No current Rail channel or kernel responsibility is a mediation or settlement case. Case Files is a solve-first puzzle channel with a fairness receipt; Wonder & Recall is a learning scheduler; their “case” and “review” words do not share Concordia authority. Reusing Concordia's navigation, subscription, or review contracts would duplicate the V10 channel contract and couple a passive, absence-free surface to an unrelated high-context workflow.
If Concordia later becomes an explicitly commissioned Rail channel, that is new product scope: its adapter should project privacy-filtered Concordia state through the canonical V10 contract while deep-linking to the existing workbench. This audit does not create that channel spec or imply consent to show mediation state on an ambient surface.
Verification#
The audit read the production sources, package manifests, public barrels, tests, and relevant V10 consumers rather than relying on generated READMEs. On 2026-07-22, all repository-owned test targets passed:
- the six Aphrodite bridges: 679 tests total (121 Hathor, 138 Isis, 98 Lilith, 167 Maya, 79 Nike, 76 Nyx);
@calliope/stage;@oshun/concordia-integration.
The source census also confirms exactly six Aphrodite bridge directories and no
production import from those packages into apps/v10 or libs/v10; the sole
adopted orphan is represented by the direct canonical Calliope contract import
in the Stage candidate source.
