'Kompendio is Konnaxion’s reference layer. For ethiKos, this page is a public placeholder describing the future ethiKos reference pack: repeatable deliberation patterns, canonical civic objects, legitimacy checks, and integration vocabulary (including Smart Vote readings).',

# ethiKos Kompendio (TBD)

Status: TBD (not implemented / not finalized)

This page **does not describe an implemented Kompendio pack for ethiKos**.
It documents what the **ethiKos reference layer is intended to become**, so civic processes remain **portable, governable, and auditable**.

> For ethiKos v2, the authoritative **Boundaries & Contracts** live in the Kintsugi page:

## What “Kompendio” means in Konnaxion

Kompendio is the **reference layer**: a public repertory of patterns, charts, and integration maps that lets communities:

- run the same civic process repeatedly without reinventing it,
- keep rules legible and contestable,
- migrate/self-host/fork without losing institutional memory,
- compare outcomes across time without “moving goalposts.”

For ethiKos, Kompendio becomes the **public playbook + canonical formats** for deliberation and decision formation.

## What ethiKos Kompendio will give users

When defined, ethiKos Kompendio should make it easy to:

1) **Run deliberation the same way every time**
- consistent phases, roles, and outputs
- predictable “what happens next”

2) **Produce decision-ready outputs**
- options, rationale, tradeoffs, minority positions
- a publishable decision record that can be revisited

3) **Protect legitimacy**
- guardrails against spam, capture, and performative participation
- explicit rules on how inputs become outcomes (and how that can be challenged)

4) **Reuse civic work**
- reference packs that can be adopted by other communities
- versioning so improvements travel without rewriting everything

## Planned contents (draft outline)

### A) Process templates (repeatable governance)
- Deliberation lifecycle templates (phases, timeboxes, roles)
- Facilitation checklists and “anti-capture” practices
- Participation formats (consultation, consensus mapping, co-drafting, assemblies)
- Escalation rules (when a process becomes high-stakes / requires stronger protocols)

### B) Canonical civic objects (shared formats)
- Problem statement / scope format (what is in/out)
- Proposal format (intent, constraints, impacts, risks)
- Evidence packet format (what counts, how to cite, how to contest)
- Deliberation packet format (arguments, objections, bridges, open questions)
- Drafting format (options, amendments, version history)
- Decision record format (what was decided, why, thresholds, readings published)

### C) Quality and legitimacy checks
- “Minimum legitimacy” checklist (before publishing a decision)
- Inclusion checks (who is missing, what was not heard, access constraints)
- Manipulation / capture checks (signals and mitigations)
- Appeal and revision pathways (how decisions can be challenged safely)
- Transparency expectations (what must be published with the decision)

### D) Smart Vote alignment (readings, not rule-by-stealth)
- Definition of **baseline** vs **Smart Vote readings** (lenses)
- Rules for declaring readings: what a lens is allowed to use (and what it is not)
- How to publish side-by-side results so the baseline stays visible
- How readings bind to a stable audit context (so “why this reading” is contestable)

### E) Mimic vs Annex maps (so tools don’t capture the process)
- Criteria for **Annex** (optional sidecar) vs **Mimic** (native pattern)
- Replaceability rules: no dual-truth, no hidden dependency
- Attribution list: “inspired by” patterns (public credit without importing their constraints)

### F) Integrations (user-facing, not technical specs)
How ethiKos outputs connect to:
- **Kollective Intelligence** (Smart Vote readings + publishable decision record)
- **KonnectED** (competence signals *when relevant* and explicitly governed)
- **keenKonnect** (handoff into projects, deliverables, and continuity)
- **Kreative** (publication/preservation of validated outcomes)

## What this page is not

- Not a technical specification.
- Not legal advice.
- Not a fixed promise of features.

It is a **public placeholder** until the ethiKos Kompendio pack is defined.
