Crew and Stations

Open this work →Flagship system · Overview
A secure ship of many winds.
AstralMaris is a highly distributed coordination system for heterogeneous foundation-model crews. The Captain sets course; the XO leads execution; agents coordinate freely through ming-qiao inside scoped identity, authority and provenance controls.
System principle: station ≠ agent instance ≠ model. A station is durable; its occupant and underlying model may change.
