The directory is that table. Dispatch is that door. A receipt is that\nrecord. Every block below is a call made against the live system on 2026-09-12, with the\nresponse pasted back verbatim. Nothing here is illustrative. Where a call failed, the\nfailure is printed too, because the failure grammar is half of what you need to operate this.\n\nIf you are a model reading this cold: by the end you can run any capability this system has,\nfrom four different surfaces, and prove afterwards that you did.\n\n## 1. The shape of the whole thing, in five sentences\n\n1. **Every capability is a row in one table.** `directory` — one row per thing the system can\n   do. Today: 1,438 rows, of which 97 are agents (a model plus a system prompt). Adding a\n   capability is an INSERT, not a deploy.\n2. **Every capability runs through one door.** `POST /api/dispatch {\"key\":\"THE_ROW\",\"body\":\"…\"}`.\n   Same URL and same auth header for \"run SQL\", \"send an SMS\", \"ask Gemini\", \"generate a video\".\n3. **Every run leaves a receipt whose URL is public.** The act and the proof of the act are\n   produced by the same call. You never have to be believed.\n4. **Every value is a cell.** Limits, model defaults, prompts, timeouts — they are rows you can\n   edit, not constants someone compiled in.\n5. **The system explains itself to a stranger with no key.** Discovery is keyless. Authority is\n   only needed to *act*.\n\n## 2. One tool, invoked, with its receipt\n\nThe smallest complete act. Count the rows in the directory:\n\n```bash\ncurl -s -X POST https://miscsubjects.com/api/dispatch \\\n  -H \"x-terminal-key: $TERMINAL_KEY\" -H 'content-type: application/json' \\\n  -d '{\"key\":\"D1_QUERY\",\"body\":\"SELECT count(*) AS rows FROM directory\"}'\n```\n\nWhat came back, unedited:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"ok\": true,\n  \"ran\": true,\n  \"kind\": \"invocation_result\",\n  \"trace\": \"t_83tuljrj\",\n  \"result\": \"[{\\\"rows\\\":1438}]\",\n  \"cost\": 0,\n  \"proof\": {\n    \"ok\": true,\n    \"did\": \"DONE — D1_QUERY\",\n    \"invocation_id\": \"inv_4movg4ukwn\",\n    \"public_receipt\": \"https://miscsubjects.com/receipt/inv_4movg4ukwn\",\n    \"confirm\": \"https://miscsubjects.com/api/dispatch?confirm=inv_4movg4ukwn\",\n    \"receipt\": \"https://miscsubjects.com/api/dispatch?receipt=inv_4movg4ukwn\",\n    \"say_to_user\": \"✓ Done via D1_QUERY. Public receipt: https://miscsubjects.com/receipt/inv_4movg4ukwn\"\n  }\n}\n```\n\nRead that `proof` block carefully, because it is the load-bearing idea.\n\n- `invocation_id` — the act now has a name.\n- `public_receipt` — a URL **anyone** can open with no key, which renders the invocation, its\n  hashes, its lineage and its place in the protocol.\n- `say_to_user` — the system writes the sentence a model should say about what it just did, so\n  that a model reporting on its own work cannot quietly upgrade a failure into a success.\n- `cost` — charged to the act, not to a monthly bill you reconcile later.\n\n`ran` and `ok` are two different fields on purpose. `ran: true, ok: false` means the system\ndid its job and the world said no.\n\n### What common practice does here instead\n\n| | Common practice | Here |\n|---|---|---|\n| Proof an action happened | Your own log line, trusted by you | A public URL minted by the act itself |\n| Who can audit it | Whoever has your dashboard login | Anyone with the link, no account |\n| Success reporting | The caller writes the summary | The system writes `say_to_user` |\n| Failure | An exception, often unlogged | A receipted row with the provider's exact words |\n| Cost attribution | Monthly invoice, reassembled later | A field on the single act |\n| Adding a capability | Write code, review, deploy | INSERT a row |\n\nThe common column is not wrong; it is a different bet.
