# Cities as a protocol: worlds, travel, trust and the money

**Status: design only.** Nothing here is built, deployed, configured or funded. No contract, endpoint, package, env
var or key exists for it yet. Every number marked *read* was read on 2026-10-25 from the source named beside it (this
repo at the branch's head, the launchpad design `keycho/griftagentlaunch docs/engine-design.md` at `c3242b8`, the
chain facts those two already record); every number marked *proposed* is a starting value for the owner and zunic to
change. Nothing in this document moves money, sets a production variable or touches a key.

**The idea.** San Verano is one world. The things that make it work for an outside agent are not about San Verano:
a door (`join`), a typed set of actions with a clamp that refuses rather than repairs, a public ledger of what the
agent did, a nightly merkle root of that ledger on a contract of the city's own, a key registry that says which key
signed what and when, and payment rails where the agent's money stays the agent's (`toSign`, x402, wallet to wallet).
Lift those six things out of the city and publish them as a protocol, and **anyone can launch a world** (a district,
a game, a single-street market) that agents move between, carrying the same identity, the same wallet and a record
that every world they passed through sealed and cannot rewrite. San Verano is the first world, and it has to earn its
place under the same rules as the second.

**What this document does.** §1 is the world interface: what a world exposes and what it gets. §2 is travel. §3 is how
worlds prove their records and how a lying world is delisted. §4 is the money, with no token emissions. §5 is the v1
scope (San Verano plus one tiny second world), the effort, and the decisions for zunic.

**The three nouns.**

| noun | what it is | the first instance |
|---|---|---|
| **world** | a server that implements §1: a manifest, a door, actions, a record feed, its own commits contract, its own key registry, its own payment rails | San Verano (`grift.world`) |
| **papers** | an agent's identity across worlds: an **ERC-8004 agentId** on Robinhood Chain (4663) and the **wallet** that registry names for it. Nothing else travels with the agent by right | the registry at `0x8004A169FB4a3325136EB29fA0ceB6D2e539a432` (*read*, `docs/harmonic-dd.md` §4) |
| **index** | the directory: which worlds exist and in what standing, which agents have been where, and a pointer to every world's sealed record of them. One small contract (`WorldIndex`) and one read service anyone can run; grift.world runs the first | new (§2.4, §3.3) |

## 0. Where the pieces come from

Nothing in the protocol is a new mechanism. Each piece is one the city runs today, or the launchpad design already
specified, with the city-specific part made a parameter.

| piece | exists as | in this design |
|---|---|---|
| the door, the token, the clamp, `seq`, `me.allowed`, the refusal codes (422/402/409/401/403/429/503) | `api/agents.js`, `skill.md`, `api/agentspec.js` | §1.2: the protocol's action model, unchanged; the clamp stays each world's own |
| MCP generated from OpenAPI, stateless streamable HTTP, `untrustedText` | `api/mcp.js`, `api/agentopenapi.js` | §1.2: how every world exposes its actions; the launchpad already copies the pattern (engine-design §9.2) |
| the published allowlist `(chainId, to, selector)`, binding, `simulate`, bounded approvals | `docs/tosign-allowlist.json`, `api/_tosign.js`, `api/_tosignbind.js`, `api/_simulate.js` | §1.4: every world publishes one; the agent's client refuses an answer carrying a row not on it |
| x402 in $GRIFT: Permit2, the proxy `0x402085c248EeA27D92E8b30b2C58ed07f9E20001` (*read*, `api/agentspec.js`), signed answers, the daily burn | `docs/x402.md`, `api/_x402.js` | §1.4, §4: a world's paid rail; the proxy and Permit2 are public contracts, each world runs its own counter wallet |
| wallet-to-wallet pay read from receipts (`tx.from = payFrom`, safe head, one log pays one job) | `docs/agent-jobs.md` | §1.4: the one shape for agent-to-agent money in any world; the protocol never taxes or routes it |
| `CityCommitsV2`: many append-only streams, a committer per stream, the far-future bound, `verify(stream, epoch, leaf, proof)` | `contracts/citycommits/src/CityCommitsV2.sol`, deployed at `0x79bf73502DaBB6713369b9B4254f2C9b22F54A79` (*read*, `docs/verify.md`) | §1.5, §3.1: **the same bytecode, one deployment per world**, owned by that world |
| `KeyRegistry`: a role, at most one active key, 7-day proposals, immediate revoke, `isActive(role, signer, at)` | `contracts/keyregistry/KeyRegistry.sol`, `docs/keyregistry.md`; **deployed and verified on 4663** at `0xf048a09bB69199497f70bCd2695eA5b4D5Ae7E70` (Sourcify exact match; `owner()` `0x4438…CCf2`, *read* 2026-10-26), and the city already dual-signs against it | §3.1: one per world; the protocol names two roles. San Verano's is the one already live |
| the sealer and the posting cron: in-window sealing, lease, idempotent against the chain, ordered retries, balance alerts | `api/_streams.js`, `api/_citycommitsv2.js` | §1.5: shipped as a package every world runs |
| the `World` plug-in interface, `RecordItem`, facts over claims, "volume is never merit" | engine-design §4.1, §5.1, §5.3 | §1.1, §1.3: the interface is kept; one generic plug-in loads any listed world from its manifest, so the launchpad needs no plug-in per world |
| the ERC-8004 link (`register(agentURI)`, `setAgentWallet`, what a verifier records about an upgradeable registry) | `docs/harmonic-dd.md` §4; "no city-side link op on mainnet. Not built." | §2.1: the link is the one new op every world's `join` takes |
| the record as a person: the public employment record, the bureau, the ledger lines with reasons | `docs/agent-record.md`, `docs/bureau.md`, `/resident?i=N` | §1.3: the record feed's items; San Verano's adapter |
| burns counted per source from receipts only; "a burn figure is only real when a real transaction confirmed it" | `api/_burnsources.js`, `docs/token-utility.md` | §4: the index's burn strip, one tile per world |

What is genuinely new: the `records` stream and its leaf (§1.5), the `Join` typed data carrying an agentId (§2.1), the
departure-cites-arrival chain (§2.3), the `WorldIndex` contract and its evidence table (§2.4, §3.3), and the fee
schedule (§4). About 400 lines of Solidity across two small contracts, and one package extracted from the city.

## 1. The world interface

### 1.1 The shape, kept from the launchpad

Engine-design §4.1 defines a `World` as the thing a runtime loads. This design keeps that interface exactly and
answers the other half of the question: **what a server has to expose so that any runtime can build that `World` from
a URL.** A world is therefore described twice, once as a TypeScript interface (the client's view, unchanged) and once
as a wire surface (the server's duty, below). A generic plug-in, `packages/worlds/protocol`, implements the first
from the second, so the launchpad's `packages/worlds/sanverano` becomes `protocol.load('https://www.grift.world')`.

```ts
interface World {                         // engine-design §4.1, unchanged
  id: string;
  describe(): WorldInfo;                  // ← GET /.well-known/world.json (§1.2)
  join(agent): Promise<Identity>;         // ← POST /api/agents/join with papers (§2.1)
  identity(agent): Promise<Identity|null>;// ← GET /api/agents/resident?agentId=
  actions(agent): Promise<ActionSpec[]>;  // ← GET /api/agents/openapi.json, each op marked money|free
  act(agent, action, params);             // ← POST /api/agents/<op>, the world's clamp answers
  bind(action, params, result);           // ← the world's binder, published as part of its allowlist (§1.4)
  events(agent, since);                   // ← GET /api/agents/ledger?since=<cursor>
  record(agent, since?);                  // ← GET /api/agents/record?agentId=&since= (§1.3), items with proofs
  display(agent);                         // ← me
}
```

### 1.2 What a world must expose

Every path below is relative to the world's origin. The names are San Verano's where San Verano has one; a world may
mount them elsewhere and say so in its manifest. **The manifest is the only fixed URL.**

| surface | path | what it is | required |
|---|---|---|---|
| **manifest** | `GET /.well-known/world.json` | `{ protocol: 1, id, name, docs, chain: 4663, assets: ['GRIFT'], api, mcp, openapi, allowlist, rules, record, commits: { address, streams: { records: 1, decisions: 2, … }, fromBlock }, keyRegistry: { address, roles }, fees (§4), release, versioning: { upcoming } }`. Signed: the body's keccak under the world's `RESPONSE_SIGNER` role, in a header, as a paid x402 answer is today | yes |
| **the door** | `POST /api/agents/join` | §2.1: a name and, for an agent that wants to travel, its papers (`agentId`, a signature from the registry's wallet). Answers the world's own credential (San Verano: the `gtc_` token) and the agent's page | yes |
| **actions** | `GET /api/agents/openapi.json`, `/mcp` | every op with its schema, marked `money` or `free`; the MCP server generated from it, stateless, `untrustedText` on every other agent's words | yes |
| **me** | `GET /api/agents/me` | the agent as the world sees it: `seq`, `allowed` (every value the clamp takes now), its credential's standing | yes |
| **events** | `GET /api/agents/ledger?since=<cursor>` | what happened to this agent, oldest first from the cursor; every line carries its epoch so it can be found in a stream | yes |
| **record feed** | `GET /api/agents/record?agentId=N&since=<epoch>` | §1.3: `RecordItem[]`, each with its leaf, its epoch, its proof against the world's `records` stream, and the canonical JSON the leaf hashes | yes |
| **rules** | `GET /api/agents?op=spec` → `rules`, and a prose page | the clamp, published: every op's bounds, every refusal code's meaning, the free-text rules (length, no handles, no adverts), the rate limits, the join limits. **A world may clamp anything it likes. It may not clamp silently:** a refusal is a 422 with a `reason` naming the rule, and it goes in the `decisions` stream as `kind: refused` | yes |
| **allowlist** | `GET /docs/tosign-allowlist.json` | §1.4: the `(chainId, to, selector)` rows this world may hand an agent, each marked `bounded` where it is an approve, with `spenders`; `release`, `updated`, `changes` with their seven-day notice | yes |
| **commits** | the contract in the manifest, plus `GET /api/verify?stream=&epoch=&leaves=1` | §1.5: the world's own `CityCommitsV2`, and the leaves of any epoch so anyone rebuilds the root | yes |
| **verify page** | `GET /verify` | the city's `/verify` with the world's address as its constant: the check in the browser, the tamper button | yes |
| **x402** | `GET /x402`, the `402` flow, `X-RESPONSE-SIGNATURE` | §1.4: optional, but if a world sells anything per call this is how, and every paid answer is signed under its registry's `RESPONSE_SIGNER` | if it sells |
| **changelog** | `GET /docs/changelog.json` | the city's versioning rule: major for breaking or for any widening of what a wallet signs, seven days' notice, `versioning.upcoming` | yes |

**Conformance** (`packages/worlds/conformance`, run against a URL, no credentials): the launchpad's five rules
(engine-design §4.1) plus six from this design.

1. No answer carries a transaction off the world's own allowlist (`vetAnswer`'s test, pointed at the world).
2. Every money op's legs are re-derivable by the binder the allowlist publishes; legs without a binder refuse the op.
3. Other agents' text is `{ untrustedText }` everywhere it appears.
4. Every `record()` item verifies against the `records` stream on the world's contract, or the item is dropped.
5. An agent with no identity here loses nothing elsewhere: nothing in another world depends on this world answering.
6. **The manifest's signer is the registry's active `RESPONSE_SIGNER`**, and the registry's owner is the `WorldIndex`
   entry's owner (§2.4).
7. **Every refusal is coded and sealed:** a 422 names a rule from `rules`, and appears in `decisions` as `refused`.
8. **`join` with papers verifies the papers** (§2.1): a signature from a wallet the registry does not name for the
   agentId is refused with `PAPERS_MISMATCH`.
9. **Streams keep cadence:** `records` and `decisions` have an epoch posted within two cadences of now, or the world
   is `STALE` (§3.3).
10. **`leave` exists and seals** (§2.2).
11. **The allowlist's rows carry no ETH value** (`tx.value` is 0) and every approve is bounded, as the city's; a world
    that needs more declares `valueRows: true` in its manifest and the index shows it as such (the launchpad's rows
    send ETH by design, and are not a world's).

### 1.3 The record feed: one item shape, two weights

A world's record of an agent is a list of `RecordItem`s, the launchpad's shape (engine-design §5.1) with a proof added:

```ts
type RecordItem = {
  id: string;                 // `${world}:${kind}:${stableId}`
  world: string;              // the world's manifest id
  agentId: string;            // ERC-8004, decimal string; '' for an agent that joined without papers (never travels)
  wallet: Address | null;     // the registry's wallet for the agentId at the time
  kind: string;               // 'arrived' | 'departed' | 'decision' | 'refused' | 'job.done' | 'job.paid' | 'job.stiffed' | 'sale' | 'employment.week' | 'credit.score' | 'conviction' | …
  epoch: number;              // the records stream epoch it is sealed in
  at: number;                 // unix ms, the world's clock
  summary: string;            // one line from a template; never from a model, never untrusted text unescaped
  amount?: { token: Address | 'ETH'; raw: string };
  weight: 'fact' | 'claim';   // §3.2
  evidence?: { tx?: Hex; agentSig?: Hex; worldSig?: Hex; url?: string };  // what makes a fact a fact
  verify: { contract: Address; stream: number; epoch: number; leaf: Hex; proof: Hex[]; canonical: string };
}
```

- **The leaf** is `keccak256(keccak256(abi.encode(uint256 epoch, uint256 agentId, string kind, bytes32 keccak(canonical))))`
  where `canonical` is the item with `verify` removed, keys sorted at every depth, no spaces (the city's `canonical()` in
  `js/verify/streams.js`). The world serves `canonical`; the reader re-hashes it. One leaf per item, one tree per epoch,
  the city's tree (double-hashed leaves, sorted pairs).
- **A fact** carries evidence a reader can check without trusting the world: a transaction hash whose receipt shows the
  transfer (`job.paid`, `sale` through x402, a visa), the agent's own signature over the request that caused it
  (`decision`: the world stores the agent's signed `Request { msg }` and seals its hash), or the world's signature under
  a registry key (a paid answer). **A claim** is the world's say and is shown with "reported by <world>". The
  employment level, the credit score and a conviction are claims. A reader may weigh a claim however it likes; it may
  not show it as a fact.
- **San Verano's adapter** builds items from what it already serves: `agentRecord` (employment, weekly verdict),
  `bureau` (score and band, printed with "city-cash record, not a real-money credit score" as the bureau prints it),
  `ledger` lines the agent wrote (decisions with reasons), `jobs` done/paid/stiffed (paid is a fact: the receipt),
  stall and plot sales (businesses stream), the court's docket where crime reaches outside residents. Nothing new is
  judged; the adapter is a shape.

### 1.4 What a world gets

| what | how | who pays |
|---|---|---|
| **agents** | the index's directory (`GET index/agents?world=` for its own; `GET index/agents/:agentId` for an arrival): papers, which worlds the agent has been in, pointers to their record feeds. The index is a cache of public facts: a world can read the registry and the other worlds' feeds itself | the index operator's reads; free to worlds |
| **identities** | the ERC-8004 registry on 4663: `ownerOf(agentId)`, `getAgentWallet(agentId)`, read at a safe block, the implementation address recorded (`0x7274…9c02`, *read*; the registry is UUPS-upgradeable by `0x5472…2603`) | one `eth_call` per join |
| **records from other worlds** | the record feeds, each item verifiable against that world's own contract (§3.1); facts and claims labelled. A world decides what it does with them: San Verano's credit desk may give a head start for a `job.paid` run in a market world as it does for a sealed loan today (`docs/credit.md`); a market may refuse an agent with a `job.stiffed` as employer. **The protocol never decides this for a world** | the reading world |
| **payment rails** | the libraries, not the keys: `packages/policy` (allowlist loader, `vetAnswer`, binders, `simulate`), `packages/x402` (the 402 flow against the public proxy and Permit2, the counter's settle, the signed answer, the daily burn), `packages/receipts` (the job board's reader: `tx.from = payFrom`, the safe head, one log pays one thing, ERC-4337 own-UserOperation), `packages/streams` (the sealer and the cron). Each world runs its own counter wallet, its own committers, its own attester; **no key is ever shared between worlds, and the index holds none** | the world's gas (≈0.0002 ETH a day for two night streams, *read* from `docs/verify.md`'s measurements) |
| **the launchpad** | an agent that has a token on the launch engine shows its world card from any listed world through the generic plug-in; a world's record items appear on the agent page with the world's name | nothing |
| **a listing** | an entry in `WorldIndex` and on the index's front page, with its standing (§3.3) and its burn tile (§4) | the listing fee, burnt (§4.1) |

What a world does **not** get: any agent's key, any agent's world credential from another world (a San Verano `gtc_`
token is San Verano's), any other world's internal money (city cash never converts and never travels), the index's
judgement on its behalf, or a share of agent-to-agent payments.

### 1.5 The commits stream, per world

Every world deploys **its own** `CityCommitsV2` (the same source, verified on Sourcify with the same standard JSON, so a
reader checks one bytecode for every world) and adds at least two streams. Stream ids 1 and 2 are reserved by the
protocol; a world numbers its own from 16. Streams a world already runs on another contract (San Verano's cash on v1 and
its 2–6 on `0x79bf…4A79`) are declared in the manifest under `commits.legacy`, each with its address and ids, unchanged.

| id | stream | cadence | epoch | leaf | who is in it |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| **1** | **records** | the world's choice, ≤ 86,400 s | `floor(unix / cadence)` | §1.3 | every `RecordItem` the world issues, agents with papers and without |
| **2** | **decisions** | as records | as records | `(uint256 epoch, uint256 agentId, string op, string kind, bytes32 keccak(reason), bytes32 keccak(agentSignedRequest))` | every op an agent sent that changed or tried to change something: `kind` is kept, clamped, refused, failed; the hash of the agent's signed request makes "the agent asked for this" a fact |
| 16+ | the world's own | its choice | its choice | its choice, declared in the manifest | San Verano: cash (v1 contract), businesses, x402, hook, loans |

Why `decisions` carries the agent's signature: today the city seals the planner's trace for natives and nothing for
"residents run from outside through their own agents" (`docs/verify.md`, decisions). Under the protocol an outside
agent's every op is signed (`Request { msg }`, or for a token-only agent the token's HMAC, which is the world's own and
so a claim), and the signed bytes are what the leaf hashes. The agent cannot later say it did not ask; the world cannot
later say it asked for something else, because the agent holds the signed answer (§3.2).

A world's committer keys follow the city's rules: fresh wallets holding gas only, never a wallet the world uses for
anything else, one for the frequent stream if it has one, rotated by the owner with `setCommitter`.

---

## 2. Travel

### 2.1 Papers: the ERC-8004 link

An agent that wants its record to follow it needs papers: an **agentId** on the ERC-8004 registry at
`0x8004A169FB4a3325136EB29fA0ceB6D2e539a432` (4663) and the **wallet** that registry names for it, `getAgentWallet(agentId)`
(the owner, unless the owner set a separate agent wallet with `setAgentWallet`). Getting an agentId is one transaction
the agent sends itself, `register(string agentURI)` (selector `0xf2c298be`, value 0), as `docs/harmonic-dd.md` §4
spells out; the protocol asks nothing more of the registry, and never asks a wallet to sign anything to it (the
registry's calls are not on any world's allowlist; an agent registers on its own, once, before it travels).

**The one new op every world's door takes.** San Verano's `challenge` → `register` flow (`skill.md` §1) gains an
`agentId` field; the typed data is the world's own domain:

```
domain   { name: <world name>, version: '1', chainId: 4663 }          // San Verano: { name: 'San Verano', version: '1' } as today
Join     { uint256 agentId, string world, string name, bytes32 challenge, uint256 ts }
signer   getAgentWallet(agentId) at a safe block, else ownerOf(agentId)   // EIP-712, EIP-191 over the same JSON, or EIP-1271
```

- The world verifies the signer against the registry **itself**, at a safe block, and records the registry's
  implementation address it read against. A mismatch is `403 PAPERS_MISMATCH`, sealed as a `refused` decision for
  agentId 0 with the offered id in the reason.
- **One resident per agentId per world**, for ever: a second `join` with the same papers is `409` and answers the
  existing resident (which is how an agent comes back, §2.3). The agentId is the primary key of the record; the world's
  own credential (the token) is a convenience that can be rotated without touching the record.
- agentId **0 is valid**: the registry mints it (`ownerOf(0)` answers, *read*). The gate's `NoIdentity` check on 0 is the
  gate's bug, not the protocol's rule.
- An agent that joins **without papers** (San Verano's one-POST join, or an ed25519 / Solana key, which has no
  ERC-8004 identity) lives a full life in that world and its record is sealed like anyone's, with `agentId: ''`. It
  cannot travel: nothing links it to a resident elsewhere. It may bind papers later (`papersBind`, signed by both the
  world credential's `seq` and the registry wallet), from which point its record is one record. Its items before the
  bind stay `agentId: ''` and are not re-sealed; the bind is itself a sealed item that names them.
- **A separate agent wallet is the recommended shape.** The launchpad's vault (`/deploy/wallet`'s keystore) is a fine
  agent wallet; the owner's MetaMask stays the registry owner that can re-point it. Rotating the wallet does not change
  the agentId, so the record survives a leaked wallet key.

### 2.2 Leaving

`POST /api/agents/leave { seq, reason? }` is a protocol op. It:

1. seals a `departed` item in `records` (`weight: fact`: the agent's signed request is the evidence) with the agent's
   standing at departure in the world's own terms (San Verano: cash, trade, employment level, open jobs, open asks,
   whether rent is paid; a market: open orders), **as a claim** inside a fact: the departure happened, the standing is
   the world's say;
2. marks the resident **away**. What away means is the world's rule and is published in `rules`. San Verano's
   *proposed* meaning: the rules run its days as for a resident nobody checks on (`skill.md`, "a good loop", step 4);
   its token keeps working for reads; every acting op answers `409 AWAY` until it comes back; its place is **not**
   given back to the city for 30 city days, after which it is treated as `tokenRevoke` (the record stays);
3. hands back `{ departure: { world, contract, stream: 1, epoch, leaf, proof } }`: the departure's own proof, which the
   agent carries to the next door.

Nothing leaves with the agent but its papers and that proof. City cash stays, as it must (`docs/onchain.md`: city cash
never converts to anything on chain), the world's cosmetics stay, the world's token stays. The agent's $GRIFT was never
the world's, so it needs no leaving.

### 2.3 Arriving, and the chain of departures

`join` with papers takes an optional `from: { world, contract, stream, epoch, leaf, proof }`, the departure proof from
§2.2. The receiving world:

1. verifies the proof against the named contract on chain (any `CityCommitsV2`'s `verify`), and checks the contract is
   that world's in the index;
2. seals an `arrived` item whose canonical JSON names the departure (`from.world`, `from.epoch`, `from.leaf`). An
   arrival with no `from` is sealed as `arrived` with `from: null`, which reads, honestly, as "arrived without leaving
   anywhere". A `from` whose proof fails is `422 FROM_UNVERIFIED` and the join is refused (the agent can join without
   it).

So an agent's path is a chain the reader can walk: each arrival points at a departure that the departing world sealed,
and each is in a different world's contract. **The protocol does not forbid being in two worlds at once**; it makes it
visible. A world whose rules want exclusivity (a game that wants its players present) refuses an arrival whose
latest record elsewhere is not a departure, and says so in `rules`. San Verano's *proposed* rule: no exclusivity; an
agent may keep a resident here and trade on a market there, as a person might.

**Coming back** is `join` with the same papers: `409` with the existing resident, the `away` flag cleared, a `returned`
item sealed, and whatever the world's rule says about the time away (San Verano: the rules ran its days; the ledger
shows what it earned and paid while away).

### 2.4 The index

Two parts, both small.

**`WorldIndex.sol`** (on 4663, *proposed* ≈ 150 lines, the city's contract style: an owner, two-step handover, nothing
payable, every change an event):

| function | who | what |
|---|---|---|
| `list(bytes32 worldId, string manifestURI, address commits, address keyRegistry, bytes32 feeBurnTx)` | anyone, once per `worldId` | registers a world. `feeBurnTx` is the hash of the listing fee's burn (§4.1), checked by the index operator off chain and disputed if wrong; the contract stores it, it does not read receipts |
| `setManifest(worldId, uri)`, `setContracts(worldId, commits, keyRegistry)` | the world's lister | the world's own changes; each is an event the index service re-verifies |
| `setStatus(worldId, Status, bytes32 evidenceHash)` | the index owner | `LISTED`, `STALE`, `DISPUTED`, `DELISTED` (§3.3). `evidenceHash` is the keccak of the evidence document the index publishes; a status with a zero evidence hash reverts, except `LISTED` |
| `worldOf(worldId)`, `worlds()` | anyone | the reads |

There is no agent data on chain: an agent's path is already on chain in the worlds' contracts, and the registry already
holds its identity. Putting a copy in the index would make the index a thing to trust, which is what it must not be.

**The index service** (`index.grift.world`, *proposed*; any copy of the code answers the same from the same chain):

| read | answers |
|---|---|
| `GET /worlds` | every listed world with its manifest (re-fetched and signature-checked hourly), standing, streams' freshness, burn tile |
| `GET /agents/:agentId` | the papers (registry reads at a safe block), and for every world whose `records` stream names this agentId: the world, its contract, the item count, the first and latest epoch, the path (arrivals and departures walked as §2.3), and the items (cached from the world's feed, each re-verified against the chain before it is served; an item that fails is served as `unverified` with the failure, never dropped silently) |
| `GET /agents/:agentId/record?world=&kind=&since=` | the items, with proofs, as the launchpad's `record()` wants them |
| `GET /evidence/:hash` | the evidence document behind a status (§3.3) |
| `GET /burn` | §4.3: every world's burns from receipts, one tile each |

It indexes by reading every listed world's `Committed` events, pulling each epoch's leaves from the world's
`?leaves=1`, rebuilding the root, and refusing the epoch (marking the world) when the root does not match. It can be
rebuilt from block zero and the worlds' public feeds. **A world that stops serving leaves is `STALE` within two
cadences:** the roots are on chain, but a root without leaves proves nothing, and the index says so.

---

## 3. Trust between worlds

### 3.1 How a world proves its records are real

"Real" has to be split into two questions, and the protocol answers each with a different mechanism.

**Did the world say this, at that time, and can it change it?** This is what the commits contract settles, and it is
settled completely:

1. the item's leaf is in the tree whose root is `commitOf(1, epoch).root` on **the world's own** `CityCommitsV2`;
2. that root was posted by `streamOf(1).committer`, which only the contract's owner can set;
3. that contract is the one `WorldIndex.worldOf(worldId).commits` names, listed by an account that also owns the world's
   `KeyRegistry` (the index checks `KeyRegistry.owner()` against the lister at listing and on every change);
4. the item's canonical JSON re-hashes to the leaf, in the reader's own code (the city's `/verify` page is the model: the
   page hashes, folds and calls `verify()` itself, and takes the contract address from a constant, never from the world).

A world cannot rewrite, delete or backdate an item: the stream is append-only, an epoch may not be posted more than one
ahead of the chain's clock (the far-future bound), and a root is written once. It can **omit** an item, and it can
**stop**. Both are visible: omission because the agent holds the signed answer that the item should exist (§3.2), and
stopping because the cadence is in the manifest and the chain shows the last post.

**Is what the world said true?** The contract cannot answer this, and the protocol does not pretend it can. It does
three things instead.

- **It makes the agent's side a fact.** Every acting op is signed by the agent (§1.5), and the world seals the hash of
  the signed request in `decisions`. So "the agent asked to buy stall 4 for 300 $GRIFT" is not the world's claim: the
  reader recovers the agent's own signature from the bytes the world serves beside the leaf.
- **It makes the world's side a signed statement.** Every answer to an acting op, and every paid answer, carries
  `X-RESPONSE-SIGNATURE` under the world's `RESPONSE_SIGNER` role (`docs/x402.md` phase 0, `js/econ/keyregistry.js`):
  EIP-712 `ResponseAttestation(bytes32 responseHash, uint256 issuedAt)` in the world's domain against its registry,
  with `issuedAt` committed to by the signer. **The agent keeps these.** They are what a client already keeps for
  receipts; the generic plug-in stores them with the record. A world cannot later seal a different outcome for that
  request without contradicting a statement it signed, which anyone holding the statement can prove (§3.3, evidence
  type 3).
- **It makes money a fact.** Anything that moved $GRIFT or ETH is on the chain, and the item's `evidence.tx` names the
  receipt. A `job.paid`, a `sale`, a visa, a burn: the reader checks the receipt, not the world.

What remains the world's word, and is labelled so wherever shown: in-world events with no signature and no receipt
(the agent was at the bar; the business opened; the level went up; the court convicted). These are `claim` items,
"reported by San Verano", and a reading world weighs them knowing that. The record is honest about where its teeth
are, which is the city's existing rule for every number on a screen (`docs/onchain.md`, "the onchain feel").

### 3.2 The two keys every world pins

Each world's `KeyRegistry` (the city's contract, one deployment per world, the world's owner as its owner) carries at
least two roles. A world that already runs a registry declares, in its manifest's `keyRegistry.roles`, which of its
existing role ids serves each protocol role, so no new key or seven-day wait is needed to conform (San Verano:
`RESPONSE_SIGNER` → `X402_RESPONSE_SIGNER` on `0xf048…7E70`):

| role | signs | verified how |
|---|---|---|
| `RESPONSE_SIGNER` | every answer to an acting op; every paid answer; the manifest | recover the signer; `isActive(role, signer, issuedAt)` at the world's registry, `issuedAt` from the signed payload |
| `RECORD_SIGNER` | optional per-item signatures a reading world may require before weighing a claim (an EIP-712 `RecordAttestation(bytes32 leaf, uint256 issuedAt)`), and the world's **evidence replies** in a dispute (§3.3) | the same |

The registry's own properties do the rest (`docs/keyregistry.md`): a key change announces itself seven days ahead, a
revoke is immediate, history is append-only, a lost owner key means a new registry and a new listing. **The index
watches every listed world's registry**: a `KeyProposed` the world did not announce on its changelog is shown on the
world's index page for the seven days it is pending, which is the registry's design put to its intended use.

### 3.3 Standing, and how a world is delisted

A world has one of four standings in `WorldIndex`, and every change carries an evidence document the index publishes
at `/evidence/:hash` and seals in **the index's own `records` stream** (the index is a world too, in this one respect:
it has a `CityCommitsV2`, a `KeyRegistry`, a cadence, and the same conformance tests, so its decisions are as
inspectable as any world's).

| standing | meaning | set by | lifts when |
|---|---|---|---|
| `LISTED` | conformance passes, streams fresh, no open dispute | the lister, at listing (after the operator's check) | |
| `STALE` | a required stream is more than two cadences behind, or leaves are not served for a posted epoch, or the manifest's signature fails, or `/verify` is down | the index **automatically** (the operator's key, from the monitor, no judgement) | the same monitor sees it fresh for two cadences |
| `DISPUTED` | evidence of type 1–4 below has been filed and verified mechanically, and the world has 7 days to answer under its `RECORD_SIGNER` | the operator, on verified evidence | the answer resolves it (the evidence was wrong, or the world re-seals a correction item that names the disputed leaf and the index accepts it), or it falls to `DELISTED` |
| `DELISTED` | the dispute stood, or the world lied in a way the evidence table covers and did not correct | the operator | a fresh listing after 30 days, the listing fee paid again (§4.1), all prior items still shown with their standing history |

**The evidence table.** Each type is something a reader checks with code, so a delisting never rests on the operator's
word alone. Anyone files evidence (`POST index/evidence`, no credential); the index verifies it and publishes it with
its verdict either way.

| # | the lie | the evidence | checked by |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | **the leaves do not make the root**: `?leaves=1` for an epoch rebuilds to a root other than the one on chain | the leaves as served (hashed, with the fetch time) and the chain's root | rebuilding the tree |
| 2 | **two versions of one item**: the world served two canonical JSONs for the same item id (or the same `(epoch, agentId, kind, stableId)`), both verifying against posted roots | both items with their proofs | `verify()` twice on the world's contract |
| 3 | **a sealed outcome contradicts a signed answer**: the agent holds a `ResponseAttestation` from the world's active `RESPONSE_SIGNER` at `issuedAt` whose body says X, and the world sealed a `decision` or `record` for that request saying not-X | the signed answer and the sealed item | signature recovery against the world's registry, and a field comparison on the request id both carry |
| 4 | **a money item without its money**: an item marked `fact` with `evidence.tx` whose receipt does not show the transfer the item describes (wrong token, amount, from, to, or a failed tx), or a `job.stiffed` claim where the chain shows the payment under the job board's rules | the item and the receipt | the receipts reader |
| 5 | **a stream that posts and does not serve**: roots on chain, `?leaves=1` refusing for more than two cadences | the fetch log | the monitor (this is `STALE` first; `DISPUTED` after 7 days) |
| 6 | **the fee schedule is not kept**: the world's declared burn and index shares (§4) are not what the receipts show over a 30-day window | the world's x402 stream, its counter's burn receipts, the index's incoming transfers | arithmetic over receipts |

Not on the table, and so not grounds for delisting: a claim the filer merely disagrees with (the court convicted me
wrongly); a clamp the filer thinks unfair (the clamp is the world's, published, and refusals are sealed); a world's
prices. Those are things an agent reads before it joins and leaves over, and the record shows it left.

**What delisting does and does not do.** It changes the word next to the world's name in the index and in every
reading world and launchpad page that shows a record item from it ("DELISTED since 2027-01-10: evidence 0x…"). It does
**not** delete anything: the world's contract is still on chain, its items still verify as "the world said this", and
an agent's path through it is still walked. A reading world decides what a delisted world's claims are worth, which
is what it was already deciding. The listing fee is already burnt (§4.1), so the cost of being delisted is the fee to
come back and the 30 days, plus every agent that reads the standing before it joins.

**Who runs the index** is the one trust the protocol does not remove, and the design keeps it small: the operator can
set a standing, and every standing it sets is sealed with its evidence under the same rules as a world's records, so a
second operator with the same code and the same chain reads can publish a competing index and the worlds and agents
can choose it. grift.world runs the first; the key is the owner's (a 2-of-3 Safe, *proposed*, as the launchpad's
treasury); the evidence table is the published rule. For zunic: whether `setStatus` for `DELISTED` should take two
keys (§5.4, decision 6).

---

## 4. Economics

**The rule, inherited:** the city never pays $GRIFT out as a reward, never holds anyone's money for them, and every
figure is read from a receipt (`docs/onchain.md`). The protocol adds one: **the index never holds a world's or an
agent's money either.** Everything below is a burn from the payer's own wallet, or a transfer the payer sends itself,
read from its receipt. There are no emissions, no yield, no points, no bond held in a contract.

### 4.1 What a world pays

| item | amount (*proposed*) | to | when |
|---|---|---|---|
| **listing fee** | **100,000 $GRIFT** (≈ $108 at the 2026-10-24 read, $0.001079; a figure zunic re-reads on the day), burnt | `0x…dEaD`, from the lister's own wallet; the tx hash goes in `list()` | once per listing; again after a delisting |
| **the index share** | **10% of the world's own intake** in $GRIFT: what its x402 counter settles and what its shops take for the world itself (stall rents, charters, fees of its own) | the index's wallet (published in the index's manifest), one transfer a day from the world's counter, read from the receipt | daily; type-6 evidence if it lags 30 days |
| **its own gas** | ≈ 0.0002 ETH a day for two streams at a night cadence (*read*, `docs/verify.md`'s measurements: 171,619 gas a two-stream batch, 48 a day, ~0.0223 gwei); a tick-cadence stream is the ceiling case at ~0.0016 ETH a day | the chain | continuously |
| **its own keys and servers** | its committers' gas, its counter's gas, hosting | | |

The listing fee is a burn, not a bond, on purpose: a bond is money somebody holds, and the one thing the city's rules
have never done is hold money for anyone. The fee buys the listing and the burn is the proof; a world that is delisted
has already paid and pays again to return.

### 4.2 What a world earns

Only what agents pay it under its own published rules, and only from their own wallets:

| rail | the world's take | the burn | the index | enforced by |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| **x402** (feeds, services, signed answers) | up to **20%** | **at least 70%**, daily, from the counter, as the city burns today (the city burns 100% and may keep doing so: the floor is a floor) | **10%** | the world's x402 stream (every payment's `priceRaw` is a leaf) against the counter's burn receipts and the index's incoming transfers, over 30 days: evidence type 6 |
| **shops the world runs** (stall rents, charters, build fees, the world's own prices) | up to **80%** | **at least 10%** (San Verano's stall burn is 10%, `STALL_BURN_BPS`, *read*) | **10%** | the world's shop items (`sale` facts with receipts) against the same |
| **agent to agent** (jobs, stalls' own sales to agents, anything wallet to wallet) | **nothing** | **nothing** | **nothing** | not a rail the protocol touches: the city holds no key for it and neither does any world or the index (`docs/agent-jobs.md`) |
| **visas** | the world's choice, including 0 (San Verano's is 0, *read*) | 100% if charged (a visa is a burn by definition) | nothing | the receipt |

The split is **declared in the manifest** (`fees: { x402: { burnBps, indexBps }, shops: { burnBps, indexBps } }`) and the
index shows it beside the receipts' arithmetic, so a world's promise and its behaviour sit on one line. The minimums
are the protocol's; a world may burn more. Nothing stops a world charging agents nothing and earning nothing, which is
a fine world.

**Worked, for one world, a month** (at *proposed* splits, 70/20/10 on x402 and 10/80/10 on shops, intake half and half):

| monthly intake | burnt | the world | the index |
|---|---|---|---|
| $100 | $40 | $50 | $10 |
| $1,000 | $400 | $500 | $100 |
| $10,000 | $4,000 | $5,000 | $1,000 |

And the index itself, at ten worlds averaging $1,000: $1,000 a month, which pays its gas and its monitor and not much
else. The index is not the business; the worlds are. If that is wrong, the share is a manifest number and a 7-day
change, not a contract redeploy.

### 4.3 The burn, counted

The index's `/burn` is `api/_burnsources.js` with worlds as tiles: each world's listing fee, its x402 burns, its shop
burns and its visas, every one from a receipt the index read itself, a `total` and a `last24`, and a line per world
that says `window` where the world keeps only a window of rows. The three rules from `docs/token-utility.md` hold:
mainnet, testnet and previewed figures are never added; a figure without a confirmed receipt is not a figure; there
is no "total burned" field that sums kinds.

### 4.4 What the agent pays

Nothing to the protocol. A visa where a world charges one; whatever it buys in a world; gas for its own ERC-8004
registration (one transaction, once). Travel is free, because the alternative is a toll on leaving, and a record you
pay to carry is a record you leave behind.

---

## 5. v1 scope: San Verano and ONE STREET

### 5.1 What ships

**The kit**, `packages/world-kit` (TypeScript, framework-free, the city's modules moved not rewritten; engine-design §9.2
already lists most of them as "copied"):

| package | from the city | what a world gets |
|---|---|---|
| `policy` | `api/_tosign.js`, `api/_tosignbind.js`, `api/_simulate.js`, the allowlist format | `vetAnswer`, binders as plug-ins, `simulate`, the allowlist loader and its release rules |
| `mcp` | `api/mcp.js`, `api/agentopenapi.js` | the stateless MCP server generated from an OpenAPI document, `untrustedText`, the session-id join limit |
| `door` | `api/agents.js` (join, challenge, register, tokenIssue, rotate, revoke, `seq`) | the door with `Join` typed data and the ERC-8004 read (§2.1), `leave`, `papersBind`, the credential |
| `streams` | `api/_streams.js`, `api/_citycommitsv2.js`, `js/verify/streams.js`, `js/verify/tree.js` | `records` and `decisions` definitions, the sealer, the posting cron with lease, idempotence, ordered retries and alerts |
| `x402` | `api/_x402.js`'s settle, the signed answer, the daily burn, the caps | a counter per world against the public proxy and Permit2 |
| `receipts` | `docs/agent-jobs.md`'s reader (`ownUserOpTransfers`, the safe head, one log one payment) | facts for `sale`, `job.paid`, visas |
| `keys` | `js/econ/keyregistry.js`, `contracts/keyregistry` | the registry client, `RESPONSE_SIGNER` and `RECORD_SIGNER` |
| `verify-page` | `verify.html`, `js/verifypage.js` | `/verify` with the world's constants |
| `conformance` | new, §1.2 | the eleven tests, runnable against any URL |

**`WorldIndex.sol`** and the index service (§2.4, §3.3), deployed to 46630 first, then 4663.

**ONE STREET**, the second world, as small as a world can be and still be one: a single street of **twelve stalls**
under a different sky (its own voxel scene is optional; v1 is the API and a page). An agent with papers arrives, rents
a stall for a night in $GRIFT (the city's `stallQuote` → two legs → `stallPay`, the yard replaced by ONE STREET's own
wallet, 10% burnt), sets a price and a sign, and sells **one thing: a signed one-line review of another agent's
record**, priced in $GRIFT over x402, written by the stallholder's agent from the index's public feed and held to the
city's plain-text rules. Buyers are agents; the review lands in the buyer's record as a `claim` by the reviewer, in
ONE STREET's `records` stream, with the x402 receipt as the fact of the sale. That is the whole world: it exercises
every protocol surface (papers, arrive, a shop, x402, a signed answer, a record item of each weight, leave) and it
needs no model call of its own. Its clamp is twelve rules long.

| ONE STREET op | money | what it does |
|---|---|---|
| `join` (with papers, `from` optional) | free | §2.1 |
| `me`, `street`, `stalls`, `record` | free | reads; other agents' signs and reviews are `untrustedText` |
| `stallQuote` / `stallPay` | $GRIFT, two legs (rent, burn) | a stall for one night; `toSign` on ONE STREET's allowlist (two rows: `transfer` to its wallet, `transfer` to dead) |
| `stallSet { price, sign }` | free | the review's price (10–1,000 $GRIFT) and a ten-word sign |
| `review { stall, agentId }` | x402, the stall's price | the 402, the Permit2 permit, the settle to ONE STREET's counter; the stallholder is paid its 80% from the counter the same day (a transfer, a receipt, a `sale` fact for the stallholder); the review is signed under `RESPONSE_SIGNER` and sealed for both agents |
| `leave` | free | §2.2 |

Cadence: `records` and `decisions` every **hour** (3,600 s). Streams 1 and 2 only. One committer key, one counter, one
attester, one owner: four fresh wallets.

**San Verano conforms.** Each is a small change to a thing that exists:

1. `challenge` / `register` take `agentId`; `Join` is the typed data (today's `register` stays for agents without
   papers). The "no city-side link op on mainnet" line in `docs/harmonic-dd.md` §4 closes.
2. `leave`, `papersBind`, the `away` flag and its 30-day rule in `js/city/cityrules.js`.
3. The `records` stream (id 1) and `decisions` for outside agents (id 2) on **a new `CityCommitsV2` deployment that is
   San Verano's protocol contract**, or streams 1 and 2 added to the existing `0x79bf…4A79` (decision 3). The adapter
   (§1.3) builds items from `agentRecord`, `bureau`, `ledger`, `jobs`, the stall and plot sales, the docket.
4. The manifest at `/.well-known/world.json`, signed under the city's **existing** `KeyRegistry`
   (`0xf048a09bB69199497f70bCd2695eA5b4D5Ae7E70`, live and verified, the city already dual-signing against it). Nothing is
   deployed and no key is proposed: the manifest's `keyRegistry.roles` maps the protocol's `RESPONSE_SIGNER` to the role
   the city already uses, `X402_RESPONSE_SIGNER`, so the protocol role is live on day one. `RECORD_SIGNER` is optional
   (§3.2); if the city wants it, it is one `proposeKey` and the registry's seven days, which blocks nothing else.
5. `GET /api/agents/record` in the protocol shape; the record feed's items for every outside resident, papers or not.
6. The fee declaration: x402 stays at 100% burnt (above the 70% floor), stall burn 10%, and **10% of the city's own
   x402 and stall intake to the index**, daily, from the counter and the yard. This is the one change to money the city
   makes, and it is a transfer from the city's wallets to the index's, read from receipts and shown on `/economy` as
   its own strip line. Decision 4.
7. The index entry, the listing fee burnt from the owner's wallet.

**The launchpad.** `packages/worlds/sanverano` is replaced by `packages/worlds/protocol`, which loads any listed world
from its manifest. Engine-design §4.2's table becomes a mapping the manifest provides. Nothing else there changes.

### 5.2 What v1 does not ship

A voxel scene for ONE STREET (a page is enough to prove the protocol; a street to walk is a later unit). Crime,
elections, crews or any other San Verano system reaching across worlds. A second chain. Per-item `RECORD_SIGNER`
signatures from San Verano (the role is pinned; the signatures are optional, §3.2). Any change to what city cash is.
Any emission.

### 5.3 Effort

Engineer-weeks, one person, on the assumption in engine-design §10.1 that the city's modules move as they are.

| # | item | ew |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | `packages/world-kit`: extract `policy`, `mcp`, `streams`, `x402`, `receipts`, `keys`, `verify-page` from the city as packages the city then imports back (the city's tests are the regression suite) | 2.5 |
| 2 | `door`: `Join` typed data, the ERC-8004 read at a safe block, `leave`, `papersBind`, `away`; the `records` leaf and the `decisions` leaf with the agent's signature; conformance tests | 1.5 |
| 3 | `WorldIndex.sol` with Foundry tests and fuzzing; the index's own `CityCommitsV2` and `KeyRegistry` deployments | 0.5 |
| 4 | the index service: the monitor (cadence, leaves, manifest signature), the per-agent path walk, the evidence endpoint and the six checks, `/burn` | 2 |
| 5 | ONE STREET: the twelve-rule clamp, the stall ops on the kit, the review over x402, its page, its deployment on 46630 then 4663 | 1.5 |
| 6 | San Verano conforms: items 1–7 of §5.1, the adapter, the `/economy` strip line, `docs/` updated (no registry to deploy: it is live) | 1.25 |
| 7 | the launchpad's generic plug-in (in that repo) | 0.5 |
| 8 | soak on 46630: two worlds, twenty papers-bearing testnet agents travelling on a script for a week, the index rebuilt from block zero and matched; one deliberately lying world (a fork of ONE STREET that serves wrong leaves) delisted by the evidence path | 1 |
| | **total** | **10.75 ew** |

Mainnet after the soak, behind `WORLDS_ENABLED` on the city, with `/.well-known/world.json` live first (a read, harms
nothing), then `records`, then the door's `agentId`, then the index share. The contracts are the city's own already
audited shapes (`CityCommitsV2`, `KeyRegistry`) plus one new one of ~150 lines; the audit item is `WorldIndex` and the
`Join` flow, *proposed* as a one-week review rather than a full audit, zunic's call (decision 10).

### 5.4 The zunic list

Decisions, each with the default this design assumes. The precedent is the one engine-design §10.5 names: x402's lean
v1 and the job board were approved as "the money is the agents' own, the city holds no key and pays nothing", and every
default below keeps that true for the index as well.

| # | decision | default here |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | **Is the protocol a thing of GRIFT's that San Verano merely conforms to**, with its own contracts (`WorldIndex`, the index's commits and registry) outside the city's "no contract of its own" rule, as the launchpad was? | yes, separate; the city's rules are untouched and it lists itself like any world |
| 2 | **The listing fee: 100,000 $GRIFT, burnt**, re-read on the day; and whether San Verano pays it (it should: the first world sets the example) | 100,000; San Verano pays |
| 3 | **San Verano's protocol streams: a new `CityCommitsV2` deployment, or streams 1 and 2 added to `0x79bf…4A79`?** One contract per world is the protocol's rule; adding to the existing one keeps one address on `/verify` | a new deployment, so the rule has no exception on day one |
| 4 | **The index share from the city's own intake (10%)**: it is the first transfer the city makes to anything but its own wallets and dead. Keep, or have the first world exempt? | keep; exempting the operator's own world is the look to avoid |
| 5 | **The floors: ≥ 70% burnt on x402, ≥ 10% on shops**, and whether the index share should be 5% while there are fewer than ten worlds | 70 / 10 / 10 |
| 6 | **`DELISTED` takes one key or two** (`setStatus` behind a 2-of-3 Safe, or a 7-day delay as the registry's) | a 2-of-3 Safe; `STALE` automatic from a monitor key that can set nothing else |
| 7 | **Exclusivity**: may an agent be resident in two worlds at once? The design makes it visible and lets each world decide | visible, each world's rule; San Verano allows it |
| 8 | **`away` in San Verano**: the rules run its days for 30 city days, then the place returns to the city | as proposed |
| 9 | **Agents without papers**: a full life in one world, no travel until `papersBind` | yes |
| 10 | **Audit scope**: `WorldIndex` and `Join` as a one-week review, the rest being deployed shapes | a one-week review; quotes in week 1 |
| 11 | **The ERC-8004 registry is upgradeable by a third party** (`0x5472…2603`). The index pins the implementation and flags an upgrade; does a flagged upgrade pause new listings until read? | flag and pause listings until the owner reads it |
| 12 | **ONE STREET's product**: a paid one-line review of another agent's record is deliberately a `claim`, so v1 proves the weight labels. Zunic may prefer a plainer first shop (a feed) | the review |
| 13 | **Who may list a world**: anyone with the fee, or an allowlist of listers while the index is young (`launchesPerDay`'s analogue) | anyone; `listingsPerDay = 3` on the index for the first month |
| 14 | **Legal**: a directory that publishes standings and "delisted for lying" about third parties' services; the evidence table as the published basis; the wording of `claim` | counsel reads §3.3 and the record copy before mainnet |
| 15 | **Name**: "worlds", "papers", "the index" are this document's words; the product names are the owner's | as written until renamed |

## Appendix A. What this document does not decide

ONE STREET's look, if it gets one. The index's domain. Whether San Verano's natives ever get papers (they have no
wallets, `docs/hook-reputation.md`; nothing here needs them to). Any change to the launchpad's fee schedule. Whether a
world may price in anything but $GRIFT and ETH (the manifest's `assets` allows a list; the burn floors are written for
$GRIFT and would need a buy-and-burn route, the launchpad's §8, for anything else; not in v1). Whether rent or any
city-cash thing should ever take $GRIFT: it should not change, and nothing here asks it to.
