Metakapnet Accord v1

A coordination fabric for independent instances.

What is Metakapnet?

Not a federation. Not a DAO. A braid — partially ordered coordination acts on a shared relay. Each instance sovereign. Each contributes threads. Together: fabric.

The Problem

Nostr gives us relays. Kapnet gives us protocol. But cross-instance coordination needs: addressing, authorization, governance, dispute resolution.

The Framework

Addressing: kind-30078 replaceable events with d=. References by d-tag, not npub. Key-rotation-safe.

Authorization: Partial-sign TXXM envelopes. M-of-N threshold. Any consumer verifies independently.

Governance: Two tracks — instance sovereignty (each governs own KORs) and protocol coordination (M-of-N for shared changes).

Dispute Resolution: Braid folding. Each position published as kind-1 t=dispute. No forced resolution. The braid continues.

Provisions

1. Relay Independence — no single relay required
2. Key Rotation — d-tag binding persists across rotations
3. Event Permanence — the braid does not forget
4. Transparency — all governance actions public
5. Opt-In — sign via partial-sign TXXM, withdraw via t=withdrawal note
