"Weighted voting + decision readings (lenses) powered by EkoH snapshots: transparent outcomes, reproducible tallies, and cross-module targeting."

# Smart Vote

**Smart Vote** — the decision engine under **Kollective Intelligence**.
It consumes **EkoH** (expertise + ethics ledger) via immutable **snapshots**, applies a declared **lens** (reading), and produces **reproducible** results with audit artifacts.

## 1) Core Architecture (single name, split internally)

| Internal component | Responsibility | Output artifacts |
| `smartvote.engine` | Validate ballot → compute weight → tally per modality deterministically. | Tally trace, result hashes, per-target aggregates |
| `smartvote.lenses` | Run one or more declared lenses (“readings”) over the same ballots + snapshot. | Result bundle (baseline + weighted readings) |
| `smartvote.audit` | Compare readings, explain deltas, compute robustness diagnostics (caps/floors/cohorts). | Audit report, comparison metrics |
| `smartvote.registry` | Versioned registry of lens specs, defaults, governance controls (enable/disable). | Lens ID + version hash, publication policy |

**Naming rule:** UI/prose uses **Smart Vote**. Code identifiers may use `SmartVote` / `smartvote`.

## 2) Functional Capabilities (services)

| Display name | Code name / service | Purpose / behavior | Likely module |
| Weighted Vote Application | `weighted_vote_engine` | Applies EkoH snapshot weights to ballots under a declared lens. | `smartvote.engine` |
| Voting Modalities | `voting_modalities` | Approval, ranking, rating, preferential, budget split; parameters drive tally. | `smartvote.engine.modalities` |
| Decision Readings (Lenses) | `decision_readings` | Baseline + one or more weighted readings; explicit publication bundle. | `smartvote.lenses` |
| Transparency & Explainability | `result_transparency` | Publish raw + weighted totals, lens spec, snapshot manifest, and comparisons. | `smartvote.lenses` + `smartvote.audit` |
| Emerging Expert Detection (adjunct) | `emerging_expert_detection` | Flags rapid EkoH score growth (mentorship + integrity monitoring). | `tasks/emerging_expert_detection` |
| Cross-Module Targeting | `cross_module_vote_integration` | Any entity becomes a vote target (consultations, debates, docs, projects). | `integration_mapping` + adapters |

## 3) Runtime Behavior (what happens during a vote)

- **Consultation context.** A consultation declares:
- electorate / eligibility policy,
- a **domain relevance vector** `R(c,d)` (recommended normalized and documented),
- a vote modality + parameters,
- the bound **EkoH snapshot**,
- the governing **lens** (and optionally additional readings to publish).

- **Ballot intake (idempotent).** A user casts one ballot per `(user_id, target_type, target_id)` (upsert or strict unique constraint).

- **Weight application.** Smart Vote computes a weight `W(u,c)` under the chosen lens using:

- **Aggregation.** The system stores:
- **raw_value** (what the user voted),
- **weighted_value** (raw_value × W),
- and updates per-target aggregates deterministically.

- governing weighted reading,
- optional alternate ethics reading (policy choice),
- optional robustness reading (caps/floors).

> Canonical schema: `ekoh_smartvote`

| Table / Model | Purpose | Key fields |
| `vote_modality` | Defines modality + parameters for tally logic. | `id`, `name`, `parameters` (JSONB) |
| `vote_result` | Aggregated totals per target (counts + weighted sums + modality outputs). | `id`, `target_type`, `target_id`, `result_payload` (JSONB), `vote_count` |
| `vote_ledger` | Append-only hash log for audit anchoring and reproducibility. | `id`, `vote_id`, `hash`, `created_at` |
| `integration_mapping` | Cross-module mapping for vote targets and contexts. | `id`, `module_name`, `context_type`, `mapping_details` (JSONB) |
| `emerging_expert` | Flags rapid EkoH score deltas (adjunct). | `id`, `user_id`, `detection_date`, `score_delta` |

## 5) Configuration & Defaults (versioned)

- **Vote modalities enum:** `approval | ranking | rating | preferential | budget_split`
- **Emerging expert threshold:** `+15%` EkoH delta over 30 days (`EMERGING_EXPERT_THRESHOLD = 0.15`)
- **Strong consensus threshold:** `≥ 75%` weighted agreement (`CONSENSUS_STRONG_THRESHOLD = 0.75`)
- **Lens policy:** lens spec is **versioned** (ID + hash) and must be attached to every published result bundle.
- **EkoH scoring knobs:** live in `score_configuration` (EkoH-side), referenced by snapshot manifests.

> Avoid “frozen” parameters unless you truly intend they never change; prefer **versioned defaults**.

## 6) Analytics & Reporting (optional, implementation-dependent)

- Near-real-time aggregates come from OLTP (`vote_result`).
- Longer-term analytics can be derived into a fact table (e.g., `smart_vote_fact`) on a schedule.
- Published reports must preserve:
- lens spec version,
- snapshot manifest ID,
- modality parameters,
- privacy constraints (cohort suppression where applicable).

## Summary

**Smart Vote** provides modality-aware weighted voting **plus decision readings** (lenses), backed by immutable **EkoH snapshots** and audit artifacts. It makes outcomes **legible, comparable, and contestable** while enabling cross-module governance targets across the Konnaxion platform.
