Agent Morphogenesis
Overview

Agent Morphogenesis

AgentPlat Agent Morphogenesis is the governed process by which an agent collective can change its operational form while preserving authority, continuity and evidence. It can recruit or create a specialist, realign a role, reassign work, replace or suspend an agent, transform Team topology, adapt a strategy, admit a new agent lineage or advance an organizational epoch.

Morphogenesis is not unrestricted self-modification. It never turns a model output, Mesh message, simulation score or approval button into direct execution authority. It composes the existing owners of identity, Membership, Trust, Inference Control, Team, Work, Action, Workflow and evidence.

The operating loop

bounded authenticated observations

need + target morphology

advisory proposal + compiled operator plan

agent, person, policy, quorum or composite decision

separate execution authorization + authority fence

existing subsystem boundaries perform each effect

receipts + outcome evaluation + successor morphology epoch

The decision-maker may be an authorized agent, an authorized person, a local policy, a collective quorum, or a policy-required composition. A person is not intrinsically required. Every principal is checked for mandate, scope, independence, currentness, expiry and conflicts of interest.

V6Governed Agent Genesis through sandbox and probationAgent Factory, Membership, attestation and Work issuance
V7Whole-collective successor epochs and compensationMultiple subsystem owners; no global super-authority
V8Constitutional continuity, meta-governance and fork isolationConstitutional proof plus existing local authority owners

Maturity and evidence boundary

V1–V8 are implemented, opt-in source capabilities in the 0.3.0-beta.6 release line. Source, conformance and packaging checks establish deterministic software behavior. They do not prove production readiness, organizational improvement, global optimality or safety under every deployment. Operational claims require deployment-specific evidence.
