What It Rests On

Cross-Domain laid out what CRAFT and WALKRI do. This is what they themselves stand on, the deeper standards for structural integrity and precise language, and the specifications themselves.

The Architecture

How the Standards Fit Together

Cross-Domain laid out what CRAFT and WALKRI do. This is how all four fit together and what they stand on.

  • CRAFT is the meta-standard for making a domain's data falsifiable and legible. It rests on deeper foundations for structural integrity and precise language ( and ).
  • CROSS and WALKRI inherit from CRAFT.
  • GRAIN is the abstraction layer beneath all of them: one shared representation of a grant that the others read.

The Foundations

What It All Rests On

CSIS

The Coordination Structural Integrity Suite. The structural conditions under which a coordination system holds together under pressure. CRAFT inherits its precision requirements from here.

Frame Language

The vocabulary discipline beneath all of it: the canonical terms a standard must use to carry its meaning intact, and the method for reaching them. It is why the standards say what they mean and mean what they say.

The Standards

All dedicated to the public domain under CC0. Read them, implement them, build on them. GRAIN’s specification is in preparation; its repository states the positioning for now.
