ADR-001: Adopt v2.1 Mind-class Architecture

Status: Accepted Date: 2026-06-18 Decision: ADL-20260618-001

Context

The current Animus codebase (Core/Forge/Quorum/Bootstrap + Kernel extraction) is an ad-hoc monorepo with divergent versions, no unified event model, and no schema layer. It cannot support the "Mind"-class system defined in The_Culture_Mind_Daily_Function_and_Tooling.pdf.

Decision

Commit to the v2.1 canonical executable baseline as the target architecture.

Consequences

  • Root directories scaffolded: apps/, modules/, contracts/, database/, infra/
  • 8 dead blockchain packages archived to packages/_archive/
  • 20 canonical schemas extracted into contracts/
  • PostgreSQL will become the durable authority; SQLite relegated to projections
  • Evidence bundles required for every release
