Lumen Capability Mesh

Each agent advertises what it can do along with a token that expires. When one agent needs a capability, Lumen finds a provider holding a live token for it, and refuses the connection if none exists. Every lookup goes into a log where each line includes a hash of the line before it, so tampering with history is detectable. The demo uses the fleet's real agent names with invented capabilities.

What to try

  1. Resolve "inference.decide" for Hermes. Kev holds a live token, so the request is allowed.
  2. Advance the clock 15 minutes and resolve again. Tokens expire and Lumen refuses the handshake.
  3. Take Muse offline. rewire() moves "copy.draft" to the next agent that advertises it.
  4. Tamper with entry 1, then verify. Every later hash stops matching.
