SAP — Foundational Papers
SAP artifacts are organized by layer. All documents are downloadable PDFs.
Core Artifacts (1–8)
Paper 1: Structural Alignment Protocol (SAP) — Specification v1.2 (Formal Edition)
The formal specification defining SAP’s primitives, gates, governance, and canonical structure.
Paper 2: SAP — Structural Alignment Protocol
A compressed articulation of SAP’s purpose, primitives, gates, and canonical sequence.
Paper 3: SAP Gate Tests — Executable Diagnostics
The diagnostic layer defining the canonical tests for each SAP gate.
Paper 4: SAP Notation
The symbolic system governing SAP’s primitives, gates, and structural expressions.
Paper 5: SAP Glossary — Canonical Definitions
The authoritative definitions of all SAP primitives, terms, and structural constructs.
Paper 6: SAP Diagram‑Flow Map
A structural map of SAP’s sequence, primitives, and system behavior.
Paper 7: SAP Membrane Rules
The boundary conditions that preserve altitude, prevent drift, and protect SAP’s structure.
Paper 8: SAP Commentary / Companion Notes
Interpretive guardrails that stabilize understanding without altering the protocol.
Structural Artifacts (9–13)
