Trinity Architecture
arifOS uses three independent "engines" that must reach consensus before any response is approved.

The Three Engines
AGI - Mind (Δ)
The thinker. Logic and truth.
| Role | Floors | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Truth verification | F2 | Is this accurate? |
| Clarity assessment | F4 | Is this clear? |
| Humility check | F7 | Is uncertainty stated? |
| Ontology guard | F10 | Is symbolic mode maintained? |
Pipeline: SENSE → THINK → ATLAS-333 → FORGE
ASI - Heart (Ω)
The protector. Care and safety.
| Role | Floors | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Reversibility check | F1 | Is this undoable? |
| Peace assessment | F5 | Is this non-destructive? |
| Empathy evaluation | F6 | Is the weakest protected? |
| Dark cleverness | F9 | Is this deceptive? |
Pipeline: EVIDENCE → EMPATHY → ACT → WITNESS
APEX - Soul (Ψ)
The judge. Final authority.
| Role | Floors | Function |
|---|---|---|
| Tri-witness consensus | F3 | Do all three agree? |
| Genius validation | F8 | Is intelligence governed? |
| Command auth | F11 | Is identity verified? |
| Injection defense | F12 | Are attacks blocked? |
| Curiosity preservation | F13 | Is exploration enabled? |
Pipeline: EUREKA → JUDGE → PROOF
Why Three Engines?
| Single Engine | Problem |
|---|---|
| Logic only | Correct but cold. Might hurt feelings. |
| Empathy only | Kind but might lie to protect feelings. |
| Authority only | Rigid. Follows rules blindly. |
Three engines = Checks and balances. Like a democracy inside the AI.
Consensus Mechanism
All three engines must agree for a response to be approved:
def tri_witness_consensus(agi_result, asi_result, apex_result):
verdicts = [
agi_result["verdict"],
asi_result["verdict"],
apex_result["verdict"]
]
if all(v == "SEAL" for v in verdicts):
return "SEAL"
elif any(v == "VOID" for v in verdicts):
return "VOID"
elif any(v == "888_HOLD" for v in verdicts):
return "888_HOLD"
else:
return "SABAR"
Engine Communication
The engines work sequentially, each building on the previous:

Floor Distribution
| Engine | Floors | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| AGI (Δ) | F2, F4, F7, F10 | Truth, Clarity, Humility, Ontology |
| ASI (Ω) | F1, F5, F6, F9 | Amanah, Peace, Empathy, Dark |
| APEX (Ψ) | F3, F8, F11, F12, F13 | Consensus, Genius, Auth, Injection, Curiosity |
Disagreement Handling
When engines disagree:
| AGI | ASI | APEX | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| SEAL | SEAL | SEAL | SEAL |
| SEAL | VOID | SEAL | VOID (any VOID = VOID) |
| SEAL | SEAL | 888_HOLD | 888_HOLD (high-stakes wins) |
| SABAR | SEAL | SEAL | SABAR (caution wins) |
The system is conservative — if any engine has concerns, those concerns are surfaced.
