ICN Golden Prompt (Archived)

This document was archived 2026-04-15 as a historical synthesis. It is not the current reasoning foundation for agent sessions. Do not load the archived prompt as current project context or blend its old subsystem/state claims into a fresh session.

The historical 26KB prompt remains at docs/archive/2026/GOLDEN_PROMPT.md for archaeology.

Current agent foundation

  • Provider-neutral operating contract + five invariants: AGENTS.md
  • Fact/domain ownership map: ops/state/truth/sources.json
  • Stable reasoning constitution: docs/ai/ICN_CONSTITUTIONAL_CORE.md
  • Context/memory workflow: docs/ai/WORKFLOW_ARCHITECTURE.md
  • Session-frame template: docs/ai/ICN_SESSION_FRAME_TEMPLATE.md
  • On-demand owner/live-state orientation: docs/ai/ICN_LIVE_STATE_OVERLAY_TEMPLATE.md
  • Current implementation: inspect the current checkout/tests
  • Current branch/PR/review/CI state: query Git/GitHub live
  • Historical session handoffs: memory/evidence only, never current authority
