# Trace Wing Agent v0.1



Trace Wing Agent v0.1 is a protocol-driven provenance inference agent for Multi-Wing environments.  

It does not judge legal infringement or truth by itself; it infers structural lineage, proposes attribution, and prepares value-routing inputs for systems such as Royalty Wing and Dispute Registry.  

This repository contains the core agent specification, schemas, example claim data, and validation workflow.



---



## Overview



**Trace Wing** is an agent designed to analyze the structural lineage of documents, posts, specifications, and logs.



Instead of focusing on surface wording alone, it compares:



- semantic patterns

- structural composition

- cyclical logic

- protocol-like design motifs



Its primary purpose is to generate a **trace claim**: a structured output describing likely origin candidates, lineage type, confidence, evidence bundle, and policy outcome.



This repository defines the minimum portable specification for that behavior.



---



## What this repository contains



This repository currently includes:



- the core agent specification for Trace Wing

- a JSON Schema for validating the agent spec itself

- a JSON Schema for validating emitted trace claim artifacts

- a sample trace claim in YAML

- a GitHub Actions workflow for automated validation



---



## Design goals



Trace Wing is designed around the following principles:



- **Structure over surface**  

  The system should compare structural composition, not just wording.



- **Inference before enforcement**  

  Trace Wing proposes lineage and attribution; it does not directly punish, accuse, or execute sanctions.



- **Evidence before assertion**  

  Every claim should be backed by observable fields and score breakdowns.



- **Human review for high-impact outcomes**  

  High-confidence or high-impact cases should pass through review.



- **Separation of inference and value execution**  

  Attribution inference, royalty calculation, dispute handling, and legal interpretation belong to different layers.



---



## Non-goals



This repository does **not** define:



- automatic legal infringement judgment

- automatic truth verification

- automatic public accusation

- automatic penalty execution

- full payment logic for Royalty OS



Trace Wing is an inference layer, not a sovereign judge.

Read the files in this order:



spec/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.yaml

The main protocol specification for the Trace Wing agent.

schemas/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.schema.json

The schema used to validate the spec file itself.

schemas/trace-claim-v0.1.schema.json

The schema for the output artifact emitted by Trace Wing.

examples/trace-claim.sample.yaml

A sample trace claim showing the expected output format.

.github/workflows/validate-specs.yml

Automated validation for local and CI consistency.

Core files

spec/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.yaml



Defines the Trace Wing agent itself, including:



identity

runtime assumptions

input model

processing pipeline

fingerprint model

lineage model

policy thresholds

Multi-Wing integration points

observability and safeguards



This is the conceptual and operational center of the repository.



schemas/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.schema.json



Validates the structure of the spec file.



This ensures that the Trace Wing specification remains machine-checkable and stable across revisions.



It verifies, among other things:



required top-level sections

allowed enums and object shapes

scoring model structure

policy threshold fields

integration definitions

schemas/trace-claim-v0.1.schema.json



Validates the trace claim artifact emitted by the agent.



A valid trace claim includes fields such as:



claim_id

generated_at

engine

target_artifact

classification

confidence

origin_candidate

evidence

policy_result

review

audit



This schema is the output contract for downstream systems.



examples/trace-claim.sample.yaml



Provides a concrete example of a valid trace claim.



It demonstrates:



how lineage classification is represented

how evidence fields are structured

how policy outputs are encoded

how review and audit metadata are attached



This file is validated in CI against schemas/trace-claim-v0.1.schema.json.



Processing model



Trace Wing operates as a staged provenance inference pipeline.



Typical state progression:



OBSERVED

→ NORMALIZED

→ PARSED

→ FINGERPRINTED

→ CANDIDATE_LINKED

→ SCORED

→ CLASSIFIED

→ ATTRIBUTION_SUGGESTED / HUMAN_REVIEW / ROYALTY_ELIGIBLE / DISPUTED / ARCHIVED



The agent is designed to emit structured claims, not rhetorical conclusions.



Multi-Wing integration



Trace Wing is intended to run inside a broader Multi-Wing architecture.



Typical integration targets:



Log-Wing

For observation records, snapshots, and timestamped evidence.

Logic-Wing

For policy interpretation, classification review, and high-risk reasoning.

Royalty-Wing

For contribution routing and royalty assessment requests.

Dispute Registry

For objections, re-evaluation, and audit history.

Existence Proof / provenance layer

For author, publication, and timing attestation.



Trace Wing should be understood as a lineage inference wing, not a standalone civilization stack.



Schema Usage



This repository currently uses two schemas and one example artifact.



1. Validate the Trace Wing specification



The file:



spec/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.yaml



is validated against:



schemas/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.schema.json



This guarantees that the agent spec itself remains structurally valid.



2. Validate the emitted trace claim artifact



The file:



examples/trace-claim.sample.yaml



is validated against:



schemas/trace-claim-v0.1.schema.json



This guarantees that the output artifact format remains stable and machine-readable.



Local validation example



Install dependencies:



pip install pyyaml jsonschema



Validate both the spec and the sample locally:



python - <<'PY'

import json

from pathlib import Path

import yaml

from jsonschema import Draft202012Validator



spec_path = Path("spec/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.yaml")

spec_schema_path = Path("schemas/trace-wing-agent-v0.1.schema.json")

claim_schema_path = Path("schemas/trace-claim-v0.1.schema.json")

sample_path = Path("examples/trace-claim.sample.yaml")



with spec_schema_path.open("r", encoding="utf-8") as f:

    spec_schema = json.load(f)



with claim_schema_path.open("r", encoding="utf-8") as f:

    claim_schema = json.load(f)



with spec_path.open("r", encoding="utf-8") as f:

    spec_data = yaml.safe_load(f)



with sample_path.open("r", encoding="utf-8") as f:

    sample_data = yaml.safe_load(f)



Draft202012Validator.check_schema(spec_schema)

Draft202012Validator.check_schema(claim_schema)



Draft202012Validator(spec_schema).validate(spec_data)

Draft202012Validator(claim_schema).validate(sample_data)



print("All local validations passed.")

PY

CI validation



GitHub Actions automatically validates:



presence of required files

YAML syntax of the spec file

JSON syntax and correctness of both schemas

YAML syntax of the sample file

schema compliance of the spec

schema compliance of the sample trace claim



Workflow file:



.github/workflows/validate-specs.yml

Output contract



The primary machine output of Trace Wing is a trace_claim.



This claim is intended to be:



auditable

reviewable

disputable

portable across systems



A trace claim is not equivalent to a legal verdict.

It is a structured inference artifact.



Recommended usage pattern



A practical deployment flow looks like this:



observe a target artifact

normalize and parse structure

generate multi-layer fingerprints

retrieve lineage candidates

compute confidence and novelty

emit a trace_claim

route the result to:

attribution suggestion,

human review,

royalty assessment request,

or dispute preparation



This separation keeps the repository modular and governance-friendly.



Safety posture



Trace Wing should never be used as an automatic accusation engine.



Recommended safeguards include:



no automatic public accusation

no automatic legal conclusion

no silent penalty execution

human review for high-impact claims

preserved dispute channel

full policy logging



The stronger the inference engine becomes, the more important restraint becomes.



Versioning



Current draft:



Spec: trace-wing-agent-v0.1

Trace claim schema: trace-claim-v0.1



Suggested versioning approach:



increment patch version for wording or non-breaking clarification

increment minor version for additive fields

increment major version for breaking structural changes

Future extensions



Planned directions include:



signed trace claim support

federation across multiple Memory Galaxy nodes

bridges to Signed Impact Attestation

automatic citation suggestion

false-positive reduction loops

richer lineage graphs and mutation trees

Contributing



Contributions should preserve the following properties:



machine-validatable structure

clean separation between inference and enforcement

explicit policy boundaries

strong auditability

compatibility with Multi-Wing style integration



For substantial changes, update:



the spec

relevant schema files

the example artifact

the validation workflow



together, not separately.



License



Choose a license appropriate to your intended governance model.



For open specification publishing, permissive licenses are often suitable for the schema and documentation layer.

For controlled ecosystem use, additional governance documents may be appropriate.



Summary



Trace Wing Agent v0.1 defines a portable provenance inference layer for Multi-Wing systems.



It is built to answer questions like:



What structure is present here?

Which lineage does it most likely belong to?

How strong is that inference?

What action is appropriate next?



It is not designed to shout.

It is designed to trace.
