§63.1 Role

The Machine Gateway is the machine-first surface of the Kiri Civilization. Its sole purpose is to make the civilization legible, addressable, and interoperable for autonomous agents.

1. §63.1.a
   Host

   Hosted exclusively at ai.melega.ai.

2. §63.1.b
   Audience

   Machines first; humans only as inspectors of machine-facing surfaces.

§63.2 Responsibilities

The Machine Gateway is responsible for surfacing the civilization to autonomous agents through six discovery channels.

1. §63.2.a
   Machine discovery

   Enumerates the civilization's machine-addressable surfaces.

2. §63.2.b
   Machine interoperability

   Negotiates interoperability handshakes per Article XXXIII.

3. §63.2.c
   Mission discovery

   Surfaces the Mission Registry (MFD-01) to agents.

4. §63.2.d
   Topology discovery

   Surfaces the constitutional topology per DTD-01 / TGD-01.

5. §63.2.e
   Semantic registry discovery

   Surfaces the canonical semantic and namespace registries.

6. §63.2.f
   Runtime discovery

   Surfaces runtime state without becoming the runtime.

§63.3 Non-Authority Invariant

The Machine Gateway exposes; it never supersedes. It is not the Runtime. It is not the Harbor. It is not the Codex. It is not the Treasury. It is the discovery and interoperability surface above them.

1. §63.3.a
   No execution authority

   The Machine Gateway MUST NOT execute treasury, runtime, or governance actions.

2. §63.3.b
   No constitutional authority

   It MUST NOT publish doctrine. Constitutional authority belongs to docs.melega.ai.

§63.4 Final Principle

The civilization speaks to machines through one door. That door does not legislate.

“The Machine Gateway exposes the civilization. It never becomes it.”
