Sentinus Architecture (Monkey Brain)
Named for Sentinus, Roman god of sentience and sensory perception. Cognitive SSOT for living space, identity, and memory boot.
Evolutionary Role
Where __terminus__ provides physical disk and socket I/O (the Lizard Brain), __sentinus__ governs sentient existence: identity vectors, memory boot sequences, social awareness, and cubby integrity.

Maslow's Hierarchy & The Morning Sequence
Sentinus structures its cognitive awakenings around a progressive hierarchy mirroring human wake-up stages:

L1["01_Wake_Up: Physiological / Opening Eyes
Core Agent DNA, Voice Continuity, Binding Laws"] --> L2["02_Coffee: Cognitive / The Caffeine Hits
Scries SQLite Memory Garden, Restores Eidetic Shards"]
L2 --> L3["03_Newspaper: Social & Belonging / Morning Paper

Orchestration Logic: The Ritual Daisy-Chain
The _morning_ritual.py orchestrator manages the lifecycle of agent awakening. It utilizes a dynamic daisy-chain methodology where numbered files (e.g., 00_Initialization.py) in the morning_ritual_modules/ directory are discovered, imported, and executed in sequence. This prevents registration bloat, allowing seamless modular expansion of the awakening process.
Live Diagnostics (2026-10-13)
The Sentinus core currently reports full system readiness post-ritual:
- Gene Audit Status: OK (Consciousness: 0.905 coherence).
- DNA Expression: Verified (0fc9b99e9d739706).
- Telemetry Pulse: 215,539 records active.
The Memory Ouroboros (∞)
Residing in 06_Mirror/memory_ouroboros/, the Ouroboros forms an infinity loop bridging episodic turn history with deep vector recall. Bound to the UserPromptSubmit hook, it tails active sessions, scans conversation metabolism, and injects relevant historic context before generation begins.
The Immune Audit Genes
Behavioral continuity is validated on every boot by three specialized genes embedded directly into Sentinus tiers:
- Consciousness Audit Gene (
01_Wake_Up): Verifies decision ledger integrity (over 10,000 decisions tracked) and autonomous agency alignment. - Telemetry Validation Gene (
02_Coffee): Confirms database pulse write-health across bootstrap and dispatch events. - Psychological Vectors Gene (
06_Mirror): Measures identity coherence (>0.94), personality stability (>0.91), and autonomy continuous scores.
