This work is organized as a set of research systems. Some artifacts define protocols and reference infrastructure. Others apply the same method to public policy, institutional design, and operational mechanisms.
The best way to read the site is in layers: start with the core paper, move into the formal or operational artifact, then inspect the implementation surface.
Path 1
Protocol Infrastructure
The Universal Sports Graph (USG) is the flagship protocol stack. It begins as a whitepaper, becomes an RFC specification, and continues into registry and resolver infrastructure.
The blueprint whitepaper introducing USG as neutral infrastructure for representing sports rights as interoperable data.
The formal specification defining the protocol architecture, access model, and settlement logic.
The canonical data layer: stable identifiers, schema-backed records, and versioned registry state.
The read-only reference surface for resolving canonical USG records.
Path 2
Institutional Systems
The Shutdown Stabilizer shows the same method applied to public policy: define the structural failure, translate it into an operational mechanism, then formalize it into law.
The whitepaper reframing shutdowns as a structural credit problem for essential federal workers.
The operational framework for activation, payroll continuity, and reconciliation.
The statute-ready draft formalizing the authority, safeguards, and capacity required.
A 30-day scenario showing how the mechanism behaves during an active shutdown.
Additional work extends this method across labor systems, media infrastructure, education, mobility, energy, and public institutional design.
