PROTOCOL 05: SECURE CLUSTERS

High-Bandwidth Coordination

[ AXIOM ]

"Entropy increases in open systems. Close the system to increase signal."

The Legacy Failure

Legacy communities like Discord are firehoses of noise. Open systems attract larpers, recruiters, and low-signal participants who drown out high-value technical discussions. Without gating mechanisms, every channel becomes a linear feed where context is lost and signal-to-noise ratio approaches zero.

The Manifold Fix

Manifold Clusters are gated environments based on Proof-of-Work. Access is restricted by:

Verified Revenue: Minimum MRR thresholds (e.g., $10k+)
Commit Velocity: GitHub activity requirements
Threaded Context: Structured discussions prevent information loss

These environments serve as dedicated "War Rooms" for building complex systems among peers of equal caliber.

cluster.ts

interface ClusterAccessPolicy {
  min_revenue_mrr: number; // e.g., 10000
  min_commits: number; // e.g., 100
  verified_github: boolean;
  threaded_context: boolean; // Default: true

}

function checkClusterAccess(user: User, policy: ClusterAccessPolicy): boolean {
  if (user.stripe_mrr < policy.min_revenue_mrr) {
    return false; // ACCESS_DENIED
  }
  if (user.github_commits < policy.min_commits) {
    return false;
  }
  return true; // ACCESS_GRANTED
