Golden Causal Object and Causal Host Resolver — Architecture for Invariant-Based Reconstructive Computing
Description françaiseCe document présente le Golden Causal Object comme noyau canonique de l’Informatique Causale et développe son extension vers le Causal Host Resolver, moteur destiné à prendre un système informatique existant comme projection observable plutôt qu’à remplacer son système d’exploitation. L’architecture reconstruit les objets, relations, invariants, méta-règles et coupes causales d’un hôte, maintient son état causal vivant par calcul résiduel et Temporal Grip, distingue l’information reconstructible de l’information irréductible, puis permet l’explication, l’isolation, la réparation minimale et la reconstruction d’un état fonctionnel certifiable. Le Causal Desktop apparaît comme la projection humaine de ce moteur à travers un panneau de contrôle local, tandis que Windows, macOS ou Linux demeurent les manifestations natives observées. Le document expose également le Causal Host Graph, l’ownership, les contrats de reconstruction, le Causal Irreducible Store, la gestion de l’état UNKNOWN, la récupération après divergence ou attaque, ainsi qu’un plan de production et de validation cross-OS. English descriptionThis document presents the Golden Causal Object as the canonical core of Causal Informatics and develops its extension into the Causal Host Resolver, a system designed to treat an existing computer as an observable projection rather than replace its operating system. The architecture reconstructs a host’s objects, relations, invariants, meta-rules, and causal cuts; maintains a living causal state through residual computation and Temporal Grip; separates reconstructible structure from irreducible information; and enables explanation, isolation, minimal repair, and reconstruction toward a certifiable functional state. The Causal Desktop is defined as the human-facing projection of this engine through a local control plane, while Windows, macOS, and Linux remain native manifestations being observed. The document also develops the Causal Host Graph, ownership model, reconstruction contracts, Causal Irreducible Store, explicit UNKNOWN semantics, recovery after divergence or attack, and a bounded cross-platform production and validation program.
