PROTOCOL 06: DIRECT UPLINK

Peer-to-Peer Negotiation

[ AXIOM ]

"Attention is a scarce resource. Filter the input."

The Legacy Failure

Traditional messaging platforms are flooded with recruiter spam and cold outreach. Your inbox becomes a noise filter where high-value signals are buried under low-intent messages. There is no mechanism to verify the sender's credibility before they consume your attention. Every unsolicited message is a tax on your cognitive bandwidth.

The Manifold Fix

The Direct Uplink protocol provides a zero-trust, end-to-end encrypted pipe for high-value operators:

Strict Contact Protocols: Only verified nodes or mutual connections can initiate
File Transfer: Drag-and-drop CAD files, contracts, and IP documents
Low-Latency: Peer-to-peer architecture for real-time negotiation

Your private communications remain a secure backchannel away from the public noise of the open internet.

}

    return null; // BLOCKED
