The 2026 development

Perplexity Computer decomposed goals into tasks and coordinated subagents and different model capabilities.

The governance gap

Routing one task across several models multiplies the number of identities, prompts and tool grants in play. The orchestration layer becomes the only place where the whole trajectory can be seen.

Where CAIN-42 fits: Moat 1 — Trust State

Core question: Who do we trust right now? Evidence-backed trust computed at the moment of the action, never a static badge.

Score each step against the trust state of the model, tool and data involved, and make the score a gate rather than a dashboard. CAIN's runtime bus and kernel already carry trust context across a multi-stage action.

How the wiring works

  1. Register each model and tool as an entity with an owner and a trust state.
  2. Attach the task's authority and budget to the orchestration context.
  3. Evaluate each handoff before the next model receives the task.
  4. Record the full trajectory, including which model produced which step.

What is real today

LIBRARY Production code and tests exist in this repository; there is no hosted route for this exact use.

The kernel and runtime bus are real. The hosted decision demo exercises the decision path, not a Perplexity integration.

keystone/actors.pyWho wrote the fix, and who wrote the test. Independence is a claim about authors, not a mood.

Descriptions are the first line of each module's own docstring, read without importing it. A module path is a pointer into this repository, not a hosted endpoint. Its existence is checked by the test suite; its status for this use is the label above.
