Cognitive Building Modules/Blocks

Cognitive Building Blocks presents the practical components that bring the Refusal‑First Foundations to life.

Each module on this page is a self‑contained unit of functionality, ranging from decision engines and introspective layers to resilience shells and ethical translators that works in concert to enforce refusal checkpoints, maintain system integrity, and adapt safely to changing conditions.

Explore these building blocks to understand how KoR’s architecture translates its guiding principles into concrete, interoperable elements capable of real‑time decision making, audit logging, and ethical governance.

Several of these modules have already been validated through working proof‑of‑concept implementations, demonstrating their viability and laying the groundwork for full integration into the KoR ecosystem.

NeuralOutlaw v1 – Sealed Master Neuron of Traceable AGI

NeuralOutlaw v1 – Sealed Master Neuron of Traceable AGI
