Capture Signals
Runtime status, logs, topology hints, and endpoint checks are ingested into evidence memory.
Module Architecture
CTK Reason organizes runtime cognition into explicit layers so teams can reason deterministically across signals, topology, contradictions, adjudication outcomes, and next actions.
Discovery Core
Collect and normalize runtime evidence from services, containers, and repository context.
Topology Intelligence
Model runtime architecture as a deterministic, confidence-aware operational graph.
Operational Reasoning
Generate replayable causal narratives, contradiction insights, and confidence evolution.
Action Layer
Issue action guidance only when evidence quality and certainty satisfy safety rules.
Operational Loop
1. Capture
Evidence
Runtime signals, logs, topology findings, and observed service behavior are captured as evidence.
2. Reason
Inference
Deterministic rules infer relationships, apply contradiction checks, and score confidence posture.
3. Adjudicate
Truth
Truth maintenance resolves conflict and emits a stable operational memory snapshot.
4. Act Safely
Safety Gate
Recommendations are blocked or allowed by confidence, freshness, and contradiction policy.
Surface FAQ
The surface exposes evidence, contradictions, topology confidence, causal replay, truth adjudication, and safety-gated action guidance in one operational interface.
No. CTK Reason is a deterministic reasoning surface that converts runtime observations into replayable operational truth instead of only visualizing raw signals.
Topology confidence shows whether the current architectural reading is well supported or still partial, which directly affects trust in later decisions and actions.
The safety gate can block actions when confidence is low, evidence is stale, or contradictions remain unresolved.
