Program 01

Anchor

Deterministic Runtime Governance

Active // PyPI: anchor-audit v6.0.1

Anchor investigates constitutional enforcement, runtime constraints, capability isolation, auditability, and policy-driven execution. The program explores how intelligent systems can remain governable after deployment.

Program 02

ANIMUS

Reasoning Systems & Cognitive Infrastructure

Research

ANIMUS explores reasoning architectures, symbolic representations, memory systems, semantic computation, and domain-agnostic cognition. The objective is to understand how intelligence can be represented, constrained, and governed.
