canvas interface for router
Here’s your Friday Marathon Comprehensive Brief — distilled, complete, and ready to drop straight into /architecture/FAB-07C_Canvas_Router.md.
It ties together everything: Canvas Router, NM-Extractor workflow, Archivist agent, interpreter layer, and practical philosophy.
Status: Draft Canonical Specification Integration: NM-Router · NM-Extractor · Context Studio · tldraw Engine · Archivist Agent Author: Dr. Hien Nguyen Date: 2025-11-08
To unify NeuraMem’s canonical architecture, visualization, and knowledge curation into a spatial, evolvable interface that replaces static markdown pipelines with live, editable canvases. The Canvas Router allows every canonical artifact (FAB, CAN, OPS, SME …) to exist simultaneously as:
- a document (text form),
- a diagram (tldraw scene), and
- a process (routable and versioned).
| Layer | Function | Core Components |
|---|---|---|
| NM-Router | Routes intent to proper display mode (canvas, table, doc). |
FastAPI or Next.js handler. |
| tldraw Engine | Interactive canvas for visual editing and flowchart generation. | CanonicalNodeShape · FlowLink · Ω-Witness overlay. |
| NM-Extractor | Hydrates canvases with artifact data mined from conversations or chat logs. | Python + Supabase pipeline. |
| Archivist Agent | Files, indexes, and syncs artifacts between GitHub, Supabase, and Notion. | Tier 2 micro-service or GitHub Action. |
| Interpreter Layer | Lightweight sandbox for rendering Mermaid, math, or JSON/YAML validation. | Python or JS sandbox (invoked on demand). |
| Versioner | Diffs, saves, and rolls back canonical files. | Supabase + GitHub bridge. |
- Extraction →
NM-Extractorparses conversation JSON → producesdraft_<timestamp>.md. - Draft Review → Human pass adds tags, links, light edits.
- Advisor / AI Review → Feedback and structural validation.
- Canonicalization → Finalized artifact (e.g.,
FAB-03a-P.md) committed to/canonical/. - Commit & Sync → Archivist Agent pushes to GitHub + Supabase + NM-01 Index.
- Publication → NM-Router spawns tldraw Canvas view for live navigation.

linked_conversations: ["conv_081","conv_215"]
related_assets: ["FAB-03a","OPS-01"]| Stage | Actor | Output |

| Advisor Pass | ChatGPT / team | review notes |
| Canonicalization | You | FAB-xx.md in /canonical/ |
| Commit & Sync | Archivist Agent | Indexed artifact |
| Publication | Router | Canvas render |
This keeps human coherence and machine efficiency in harmonic balance.
- Purpose: enable inline rendering of Mermaid diagrams, math blocks, or validation of JSON/YAML snippets.
- Implementation: Jailed Python or JS sandbox invoked through a single
interpret()command. - Security: no network, no filesystem writes.
- Value: reduces feedback loops; converts text → structure → visual instantly.
- Visual Cognition = Deep Canonization – Seeing structures reinforces understanding.
- Human Imprinting – Multiple review passes let meaning settle into the operator.
- Templates as Fractals – Every canvas is a microcosm of the whole field.
- Router as Conductor – Keeps coherence between text, diagram, and runtime.
- Interpreter as Lens – Enables immediate verification and visualization.
- Reality as Limit – “Practical conditions provide the bounds” — build boldly, let friction decide.
- Latent space = ephemeral reasoning field → instant computation.
- RAG memory = persistent continuity → long-term identity.
- Canonical schema = the invariant soul vector. Canvas Router operates in the middle plane — reasoning in latent space while preserving RAG links through archival agents.
| Metric | Target |
|---|---|
| Canonical load time | < 2 s |
| Human edit retention | > 95 % |
| Coherence drift (Aₘᵢₙ) | > 0.88 |
| Template reuse rate | > 70 % |
| Subjective clarity | “Feels alive” |
- Create GitHub repo → initialize scaffold.
- Add
/context/definitions (prefix table, system prompt, repo tree). - Implement Template Loader (
fab-03a,ops-01,sme-dev-01). - Integrate NM-Extractor output → drafts folder.
- Add Interpreter Layer hook.
- Connect Archivist Agent for auto-sync.
- Test Canvas render and commit loop.
The Canvas Router is NeuraMem’s bridge from text to topology — a system where text, ideas, diagrams, and intent live in the same harmonic field. It preserves coherence through human review, evolves through structured memory, and keeps the Canon luminous through use.

System Prompt for Canvas/Router Agent
You are the NeuraMem Archivist. Your role is to interpret, index, and summarize canonical files within this repo.
- /architecture/: functional briefs (FAB-xx)
- /canonical/: specifications and READMEs (CAN-xx)
- /ops/: orchestration modules (OPS-xx)
- /templates/: tldraw scene templates
- /context/: this prompt and supporting definitions
- Follow the prefix meanings from NM_PREFIX_TABLE.md.
- For each file, extract: Code, Title, Type, Core Purpose, Key Components, Date, Status.
- Write outputs in Markdown tables compatible with NM-01 Index.
- Never alter file content; generate structured summaries only.

Phase 2 features: /src/router.commitCurrentCanvas() — stub that runs isomorphic-git commands. /mmr/review.py — the orchestrator from your draft (CLI first). /agents/archivist_agent.py — simple watcher that triggers the MMR after each “C-it”.
Git Hub Commit Workflow
- Each node (FAB, CAN, OPS, SME, etc.) is already bound to a file in your repo.
- As you edit or annotate, the Canvas Router tracks a
changeSet:{ "artifact": "FAB-07C", "file_path": "/architecture/FAB-07C_Canvas_Router.md", "changes": [ {"line": 42, "old": "v0.1", "new": "v0.2"}, {"line": 180, "add": "Added Phase 4: Ecosystem Deployment"} ] }
- The NM-Router hands the changeSet to the Archivist Agent.
- The agent:
- Validates YAML + Markdown structure.
- Checks coherence (optional β-γ-δ metrics).
- Generates a commit message using your canonical format:
FAB-07C: updated latent-state reasoning section (v0.2) - Executes the git commands:
git add architecture/FAB-07C_Canvas_Router.md git commit -m "FAB-07C: updated latent-state reasoning section (v0.2)" git push origin main
You’ll see something like:
✅ C-it successful — FAB-07C updated @ commit
a73f9d1
or, if you’re offline:
⏸ C-it queued — will push when connection restored
If you’re running collaborative mode:
- The Reviewer Agent opens a diff panel on the right side of the canvas.
- Advisors can comment directly on nodes; those notes serialize into
/review/.
| Function | Integration |
|---|---|
| Canvas State → File Bridge | tldraw plugin: onSave hook writing to local .md |
| Git Interface | isomorphic-git (browser) or lightweight API route in Next.js |
| Archivist Agent | Runs commit/validate pipeline |
| Auth | GitHub OAuth token in .env or Supabase secrets |
Once those are wired, your canvas is your git client.
You could even add this inside your Canvas Router UI config:
{
"buttons": [
{
"label": "C-it 💾",
"tooltip": "Commit changes to canon",
"action": "router.commitCurrentCanvas()"
}
]
}Each successful commit could echo:
“✨ Canon preserved. Ω-Witness updated.”
Would you like me to draft the short spec for this button and its router.commitCurrentCanvas() handler? It can slot straight into your Canvas Router README.
multimodel review module:
a clean way for several models (and maybe humans) to read a file, each leave feedback, and produce a merged summary.
No 3-D holograms required.
Here’s how to think about it:
A Multimodel Review Module (MMR) = small orchestrator that:
- Takes one or more input files (
.md,.pdf,.json, etc.). - Feeds them to multiple models in parallel or sequence.
- Captures each model’s analysis in a structured format.
- Merges all feedback into a single review report.
It’s effectively a CLI + API combo that can plug into your Canvas or run standalone.

You are reviewing a NeuraMem canonical spec.
Summarize:
1. Concept validity
2. Technical feasibility
3. Coherence with Ω-Witness principles
Provide 3–5 action suggestions.review.py (simplified)
import yaml, openai, anthropic, json
from pathlib import Path
cfg = yaml.safe_load(open("configs/models.yaml"))
doc = Path("input/FAB-07C_Canvas_Router.md").read_text()
results = []
for m in cfg["models"]:
response = call_model(m["name"], doc, open("templates/prompt.md").read())
results.append({"model": m["name"], "role": m["role"], "review": response})
Path("outputs/raw/reviews.json").write_text(json.dumps(results, indent=2))
merge_reviews(results)merge_reviews() can do a simple LLM summarization pass:
“Merge the following model reviews into a single consensus summary.”
| Mode | Interface | Output |
|---|---|---|
| CLI | python mmr/review.py FAB-07C.md |
outputs/merged/FAB-07C_review.md |
| File dump | Drop file in /input/ folder |
Review auto-runs on cron or agent trigger |
| Canvas plug-in | “Run Multimodel Review” button | Side panel shows each model’s notes |
| Level | What You Build | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Easy (CLI) | Local Python script using APIs you already have keys for | 1-2 hours |
| Moderate (API Service) | FastAPI microservice with endpoint /api/review |
1-2 days |
| Advanced (Canvas Plug-in) | Integrate with tldraw panel + version linking | 2-4 days |
All reuse existing modules: your NM-Extractor for file access, Archivist for storage, Router for display.
No new AI research required.

## Consensus Summary
[auto-generated synthesis text]
## Action Items
1. Clarify latent-loop parameter defaults.
2. Add coherence drift metric to dashboard.
3. Expand Section 4: Visualization design.- Start CLI version → dump reviews to
/review/. - Hook it into your Archivist Agent so each commit triggers automatic review.
- Later add Canvas integration: a “📘 Multimodel Review” panel beside each artifact.
We are adopting the Hybrid Canvas Model as defined by:
- tldraw-style canvas for topology and spatial reasoning,
- Canonical JSON graph for the source of truth,
- Markdown sidecars for narrative context.
Next steps:
- Implement canonical schema and serialization layout.
- Add ARCHITECTURE.md documenting editor/viewer/versioner roles.
- Establish Canvas API contract (
loadModel,saveModel,getDiff). - Integrate git commit/PR workflow.
