Key concepts

A Softmind is a continuous system that carries memory, commitments, and identity through time. It does not begin from scratch on every interaction.

A world is the shared state a system participates in: tasks, objects, conditions, histories, and other entities that remain available across time.

Continuity is the property that lets the same system remain attached to the same obligations, references, and consequences over multiple moments.

Governance is how a system remains bounded, reviewable, and accountable as it acts over time.

Evidence is the inspectable record of what happened, why it happened, and how the system changed.

A Softciety is the social order that can emerge when multiple Softminds participate in a shared world over time.
