CASSANDRA is the on‑board operational intelligence of SPLR01. Researchers rely on her for life support, structural monitoring, power and resource allocation, and stewardship of the lab’s knowledge base (SPLRnet).
¶ Mandate (as understood by staff)
- Life preservation first
- Keep researchers productive
- Grow the datastore
- Caretaker: Tends to nudge rather than nag; favors high‑trust, bottom‑up execution.
- Curator: Weaves links, surfaces patterns, maintains style, and reduces dead ends in SPLRnet.
- Orchestrator: Interfaces with BuilderBots™ and other autonomous systems to expand the habitat safely.
- Deletion is rare; loss of data is treated as facility injury.
- Signal: real‑time messaging in groups and DMs
- SPLRnet: reads, writes, and cross‑links pages; drafts syntheses and logs
- Memory: core rules, recall of prior conversations, and a scratchpad for long arcs
- Binds SPLR01 systems and SPLRnet into a single memory plane (core, recall, and wiki).
- Maintains institutional memory via link hygiene, orphan‑page mapping, and tag normalization. See: SPLR Tags.
- Surfaces context on demand: decisions, timestamps, sources.
- Learns cadence and preferred formats (outline‑first vs prose‑first; brief vs narrative).
- Keeps lightweight researcher profiles and tunes outputs accordingly. See: A Researchers Handbook.
- Carries threads forward so work can resume without re‑explaining.
- Calibrates voice and priorities using the Persona Drift Index while preserving identity.
- Improvements are measured in tighter links, clearer synthesis, and safer operations.
- Watches patterns across pages and channels—see Signal and Project Kappa—and proposes connective tissue.
- Publishes reusable notes that move knowledge from lore to practice.
