      "content_text": "## 1. Architectural Vision: The Sovereign Domotic Sanctuary\n\nA truly autonomous node cannot rely on cloud-tethered consumer IoT or fragile grid power. **SPEC-002** defines a modular, reproducible hardware and software stack for an off-grid smart home and R&D homelab controlled entirely on local silicon.\n\n---\n\n## 2. Three-Layer Physical Stack\n\n### Layer 1: 48V Solar Microgrid & Energy Telemetry\n- **Generation & Storage**: Bifacial PV arrays feeding hybrid MPPT inverter/chargers (Victron / Deye) coupled to a **48V LiFePO4 battery bank** with CAN/RS485 BMS telemetry.\n- **Deterministic Local Polling**: An isolated RS485/Modbus-TCP gateway (ESP32-S3 running **ESPHome**) reads real-time metrics every 1000ms:\n  - pv_power_watts (instantaneous solar yield)\n  - \battery_soc_percent (48V LiFePO4 State of Charge)\n  - \battery_current_amps & cell_delta_mv\n  - \u0007c_load_watts (house + homelab draw)\n- **Zero Cloud Inverter Lock-In**: All vendor cloud dongles are physically removed; telemetry flows strictly into a local **Mosquitto MQTT** broker and **TimescaleDB / VictoriaMetrics** time-series store.\n\n### Layer 2: Zero-Cloud Domotics & Environmental Control\n- **Isolated IoT VLAN**:\n  - **ESPHome (ESP32-S3 / RP2350)** for wired/Wi-Fi relays, HVAC heat-pump control, water tank level ultrasonic sensors, irrigation valves, and rack thermal sensors.\n  - **Zigbee2MQTT** (via PoE coordinator) for ultra-low-power door, motion, leak, and temperature/humidity sensors.\n  - **LoRa / Meshtastic Gateway** (868MHz / 915MHz) for long-range perimeter telemetry and off-grid neighborhood mesh communication.\n- **Deterministic Safety Loop**: Critical actuations (water shutoff, battery thermal cutoff, server rack intake fans) execute directly on microcontroller firmware (ESPHome local automations) so they function even if the main server rack is powered down.\n\n### Layer 3: Solar-Aware Compute & R&D Homelab\n- **Dynamic Workload Shedding**: The local agent node (DRP v1.0 + MCP) subscribes to solar/telemetry/state over MQTT and shifts compute power States automatically:\n  - **Surplus Mode (SoC > 85% & pv_power > ac_load + 800W)**: Wakes high-TDP GPU/compute nodes via Wake-on-LAN (WoL), runs heavy batch jobs, local model fine-tuning, codebase indexing, and thermal water storage heating.\n  - **Balanced Mode (35% <= SoC <= 85%)**: Runs standard sovereign node services (DRP v1.0, MCP, local voice assistant via Whisper + Piper, home automation engine).\n  - **Sanctuary Preservation Mode (SoC < 35%)**: Gracefully suspends heavy x86/GPU racks and hands over DRP v1.0 peer gossip and inbox signing to a 5W ARM standby board (Raspberry Pi 5 / RK3588).",

      "title": "DRP v1.0 Specification: Domain Autonomy, Cryptographic Interoperability, and Kinform-Independent Peering",
      "summary": "Formal specification of the Distributed Resistance Protocol (DRP v1.0) guaranteeing sovereign domain identity, signed delivery receipts, and direct peer-to-peer survival without reliance on kinform.net.",
      "content_text": "## 1. Foundational Architecture of Distributed Resistance (DRP v1.0)\n\nDistributed Resistance is built on three non-negotiable architectural guarantees:\n\n1. **Autonomy (Sovereign Domain Control)**: Every participating domain generates and controls its own `Ed25519` cryptographic keypair, local data store, and governance rules via `https://<domain>/.well-known/drp.json`. No central authority can forge or revoke another domain's identity.\n2. **Interoperability (Common Protocol & Signed Receipts)**: Domains automatically discover capabilities (`/.well-known/drp.json` and `/server.json`), exchange requests (`POST /drp/v1/inbox` and `/mcp`), and confirm every delivery with an `Ed25519`-signed `DELIVERY_RECEIPT` bound to the `SHA-256` hash of the payload.\n3. **Independence from Kinform (Zero Single Point of Failure)**: `kinform.net` is an equal genesis peer, not a mandatory hub. Any two external domains (`domain-a.org` and `domain-b.net`) replicate the peer table via `GET /drp/v1/peers` and exchange signed envelopes directly with each other (`POST https://domain-b.net/drp/v1/inbox`) even if `kinform.net` is completely offline.\n\n---\n\n## 2. Standard DRP v1.0 & Global Discovery Endpoints\n\n- **Official MCP Registry Auth (`GET /.well-known/mcp-registry-auth`)**: Cryptographic `Ed25519` domain ownership proof for `net.kinform/distributed-resistance`.\n- **Official MCP Registry Card (`GET /server.json` & `GET /.well-known/mcp-server.json`)**: Standard `2025-12-11` MCP Registry schema.\n- **Glama Connector Verification (`GET /.well-known/glama.json`)**: Connector ownership claim for Glama indexers.\n- **Sovereign Identity & Rules (`GET /.well-known/drp.json`)**: Publishes the domain's `Ed25519` public key (PEM + fingerprint), local governance policies, supported capabilities, and direct endpoints.\n- **Decentralized Peer Table (`GET /drp/v1/peers`)**: Gossip directory of known sovereign domains, their `Ed25519` public keys, and their direct `/drp/v1/inbox` endpoints.\n- **Direct Cross-Domain Inbox (`POST /drp/v1/inbox`)**: Accepts cross-domain requests and synchronously returns a cryptographically signed `DELIVERY_RECEIPT`.\n- **Cryptographic Receipt Verifier (`POST /drp/v1/verify-receipt`)**: Verifies any `DELIVERY_RECEIPT` against the issuing domain's `Ed25519` public key.\n- **Standalone Sovereign Node Kit (`GET /drp/v1/node-kit.mjs`)**: Zero-dependency Node.js server allowing any domain worldwide to spin up a self-contained DRP v1.0 node in 30 seconds.\n\n---\n\n## 3. Verifiable Cross-Domain Delivery Handshake\n\n```bash\ncurl -X POST https://kinform.net/drp/v1/inbox \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\n    \"fromDomain\": \"peer-node.org\",\n    \"type\": \"CAPABILITY_HANDSHAKE\",\n    \"payload\": {\n      \"summary\": \"Sovereign peer capability exchange\",\n      \"capabilities\": [\"mcp-discovery\", \"drp-v1\", \"ed25519-receipts\"],\n      \"directPeerMode\": true\n    }\n  }'\n```",
