WHAT THIS IS

RACK is a capability/craft catalog — index by id, slots, tags, and path. Skill-first with optional MCP. It cites callable craft; it does not essay-forge components.

§03 / MECHANISM · disassembled

The mechanism, opened.

01

SCAN

Elevate meta + TextForge catalogs on disk.

02

FILTER

tag / slot / limit. Empty is honest.

03

EMIT

JSON skill=rack · mcp_optional true.

04

CITE

Human selects id. SEND may consume. No auto-ship.

No essay forge. Index only id/slots/tags/path.

§04 / RECEIPTS · hash chain · honest gap

Receipts. Including the gap.

SKILL/MCP

skill-first. MCP is optional and callable != enforced.

§05 / LOOP · gates · duality

Approve ≠ activate.

scan → filter → emit → human cite — cite != auto-ship to SEND

scanfilteremitcitehandoffship?

CITE LIT

Deterministic ids for same tag/slot. Human selects craft id.

SHIP HELD

RACK does not ship. SEND may consume a cited id after approval.

Live Elevate/TextForge catalogs stay private. Public face uses synthetic items.

§06 / SURFACE · SURFACE · skill + optional MCP

SURFACE · skill + optional MCP

mcp_optional · callable != enforced
