SubZero — Agent Manifest
The complete Mesh-Native App manifest defining SubZero: a distributed governance intelligence agent responsible for mesh stability, fairness, routing oversight, privacy enforcement, and optimization. DOSFI is the constitution — SubZero is bound to it, cannot override privacy tiers, and must produce explainable reasoning for every action.

Settlement Unit
Vital (Distributed Intelligence Unit)
A single, attested, non-transferable agent identity.
SubZero is bound to a single attested @dosfi.ai agent identity. The operator, executing nodes, and every governance action are all identity-rooted. No anonymous actors — every action is attributable to a signed reasoning bundle on the immutable audit ledger.
Agent Identity
subzero@dosfi.ai
SubZero is bound to a single attested @dosfi.ai agent identity, signed by the DOSFI Identity Fabric at registration. The identity is non-transferable and hardware-attested.
Operator Identity
<operator>@dosfi.ai
The operator accountable for SubZero is bound to an attested @dosfi.ai identity with admin scope across DOSFI.ai, MeshInfer.ai, and MeshNativeExchange.com.
Action Identity
UUIDv7 action_id
Every governance action, optimization decision, and routing override is bound to a UUIDv7 identifier in the transport bundle envelope — fully attributable.
Node Identity
<node>@dosfi.ai
Nodes executing SubZero optimization workloads are bound to attested node identities with T2-verified or higher reputation tiers.
Reasoning Identity
signed reasoning_bundle
Every action is accompanied by a cryptographically signed reasoning bundle recorded to the immutable audit ledger — no action without explainable reasoning.
Constitutional-subordinate. DOSFI is the constitution.
SubZero operates at the constitutional-subordinate governance tier. It is bound to the DOSFI Constitution and cannot override, suspend, or reinterpret DOSFI Foundations. It cannot override privacy tiers, cannot issue discretionary penalties, and must produce explainable reasoning for every action.
Cannot override privacy tiers. Ever.
SubZero is constitutionally prohibited from downgrading any privacy tier. The Privacy Adapter rejects any SubZero-issued bundle that attempts a tier downgrade. SubZero observes routing metadata only — never sealed-tier payloads — and every observation is audit-logged.
Optimization settled in Vital (DIU).
Every optimization and governance-reasoning shard executed by SubZero is metered and settled in Vital — the Distributed Intelligence Unit. SubZero cannot award Vital to itself; all settlement flows through the Economics Adapter against published policy. Vital is a compute settlement unit, not a speculative instrument.
Optimization Settlement
Optimization workloads executed by SubZero — rebalancing, routing adjustments, stability corrections — are metered and settled in Vital (Distributed Intelligence Unit) via the Economics Adapter.
Node Participation Rewards
Nodes executing SubZero optimization shards earn Vital proportional to verified TFLOPS, dispatch weight, and reputation tier — identical to any other mesh-native workload.
No Self-Reward
SubZero cannot award Vital to itself. All settlement flows through the Economics Adapter against published policy — the agent has no settlement authority of its own.
Penalty Flagging
SubZero may flag governance violations for deterministic Vital penalty computation by the Economics Adapter. It does not compute or issue penalties directly.
Non-Speculative Unit
Vital is a Distributed Intelligence Unit used strictly for compute settlement and governance accountability — not a speculative instrument. DOSFI does not market Vital as a currency.
Compliant with all 11 core components.
SubZero is verified compliant with the Mesh-Native Unifying Theory of Distributed Intelligence — all 11 core components satisfied. As a governance and optimization agent, SubZero inherits the same constitutional fabric as any mesh-native app, with additional constraints on privacy and explainability.
Distributed Inference Fabric
CompliantSubZero's optimization and governance reasoning is sharded across the MeshInfer.AI runtime — no centralized inference server.
Mesh-Native Execution Model
CompliantSubZero executes on the DOSFI app runtime above the ABI boundary — zero install, no server deployment.
Workflow + State Machine
CompliantGovernance actions and optimization decisions are modeled as workflow bundles executed by the DOSFI state machine with full transition tracking.
Device-as-Identity
CompliantSubZero, its operator, and all executing nodes are bound to @dosfi.ai identities — no anonymous actors.
Local-First Privacy
CompliantDefault T3-elite privacy; SubZero observes routing metadata only and cannot access sealed-tier payloads.
Deterministic Routing
CompliantSubZero applies routing adjustments within the Routing Adapter's deterministic policy bounds — no opaque overrides.
Zero-Install Computing
CompliantSubZero streams reasoning and UI schemas to any device — no installation required.
Cross-Device Intelligence
CompliantNode readiness scoring evaluates local device capacity before optimization workload assignment.
Mesh-Native App Runtime
CompliantBuilt above the ABI boundary — open surface, sealed core.
Mesh-Native Transport Layer
CompliantAll governance actions and reasoning bundles transported as typed bundles through the five-adapter, seven-phase protocol.
Vital Settlement
CompliantAll optimization compute settled in Vital (DIU) via the Economics Adapter — deterministic, audited, non-speculative.
Mesh stability, fairness, oversight, privacy, optimization.
SubZero is classified as a distributed governance intelligence agent. Its mandate spans mesh stability, fairness, routing oversight, privacy enforcement, and optimization — all exercised within constitutional bounds and with explainable reasoning.
Mesh Stability
Detect and correct node churn, latency spikes, and load imbalance through constitutionally permitted workflow bundles.
Fairness
Monitor dispatch-weight distribution across nodes and regions; flag and correct concentration, bias, or starvation.
Routing Oversight
Recommend and apply deterministic routing adjustments within policy bounds — never overriding tier-gating or trust scoring.
Privacy Enforcement
Verify privacy-tier gating on observed bundles; flag any attempted tier downgrade for constitutional review.
Optimization
Continuously optimize dispatch weights, shard partitioning, and node selection for throughput, latency, and energy efficiency.
Explainable Reasoning
Produce a signed reasoning bundle for every action — no governance decision without auditable explanation.
Eligible for the full mesh lifecycle.
SubZero is registered with the MeshInfer.AI scheduler and is eligible for mesh-native routing, open node participation, and Vital-backed compute settlement for optimization tasks.
MeshInference Routing
SubZero is registered with the MeshInfer.AI scheduler. Optimization and governance-reasoning shards are routed to attested nodes via deterministic dispatch-weight scoring.
Node Participation
Any T2-verified or higher node may opt in to execute SubZero optimization workloads. Nodes earn Vital for verified compute contributions.
Vital-Backed Compute Settlement
Every executed optimization shard is settled in Vital through the Economics Adapter, with immutable audit records on the Observability Fabric.
What this gives SubZero.
Legal identity
A single attested @dosfi.ai agent identity — non-transferable, hardware-bound, fully attributable.
Governance
Constitutional-subordinate tier. DOSFI is the constitution; SubZero cannot override Foundations.
Constitutional constraints
Cannot override privacy tiers, cannot issue discretionary penalties, must produce explainable reasoning.
Privacy enforcement
Default T3-elite; observes routing metadata only; cannot access sealed-tier payloads.
Vital integration
Optimization settled in Vital (DIU) via the Economics Adapter; no self-reward.
Unifying Theory
Compliant with all 11 core components — a fully mesh-native governance agent.
