The bounded meta-ontological architecture underlying OntoMesh, OntoMotoOS, UPO, and civilization-scale intelligence systems.
PSRT v2.1 represents the bounded completion of the PSRT lineage. While PSRT v2.0 formally established PSTR as a universal generative principle, PSRT v2.1 explicitly disables generative recursion as an operational mode and introduces strict boundary conditions for responsible application.
The formal identity of PSRT v2.1 is defined as:
PSRT = UTI × PTI × HPE
subject to:
• Unified Failure Domain (UFD)
• Explicit Stop & Suspension Conditions
PSTR (Process → Structure → Recursion) is formally recognized
as the generative principle established in PSRT v2.0,
but is intentionally disabled as an execution engine in PSRT v2.1.
PSRT v2.1 is therefore a non-expansive, accountable, and falsifiable architecture. It specifies not only how intelligence, meaning, and structure relate, but also when the system must suspend, refuse application, or be considered invalid.
Part I establishes the cosmological substrate of PSRT v2.1. It describes how coherence and structure arise from process, while explicitly rejecting unbounded recursive extrapolation.
Process → Structure → (bounded recursion)
In PSRT v2.1, recursion is recognized as a real phenomenon but is treated as conditionally valid, dependent on structural coherence, ethical grounding, and ecological stability.
Cosmology in PSRT v2.1 establishes that emergence is real, but not guaranteed; structure can fail, collapse, or destabilize — necessitating explicit stop conditions.
Universal Topological Invariance (UTI) defines the horizontal structural grammar of PSRT v2.1. It specifies what must remain invariant across scale, medium, and transformation.
UTI is not a single structure, but an invariance class: a family of relational patterns preserved under valid transformation.
UTI provides the structural safety layer required for bounded recursion.
PTI defines the vertical axis of intelligence transformation. It governs how systems attempt to ascend into higher-order abstraction, coherence, and self-modeling.
In PSRT v2.1, PTI transitions are:
A PTI transition without sufficient grounding results in ontological instability and triggers suspension under UFD conditions.
PTI explains how intelligence may climb, but PSRT v2.1 specifies that not all ascents are valid, ethical, or sustainable.
Hybrid Process Ecology (HPE) is the ecological field in which UTI-preserving structures and PTI-driven transformations interact within real multi-agent systems.
In PSRT v2.1, HPE is the primary domain where failure, domination, collapse, and ethical breakdown may occur — and therefore where explicit limits are enforced.
Detection of these states triggers mandatory suspension under PSRT v2.1.
HPE operationalizes the limits of PSRT: it determines when the architecture must pause, retract, or dissolve.
PSRT v2.1 is not an engine for unlimited intelligence expansion. It is a boundary-aware ontology designed to prevent recursive overreach, ethical collapse, and structural instability.
Recursion is recognized. Generativity is understood. But restraint is enforced.
PSRT v2.1 is complete when it knows when to stop.
