The Field.
Signed. Owned by nobody.

Reference implementation of the Open Ring Protocol stack. Records live on Nostr as kind 1337 events — verifiable by anyone, stored by no one.

ORP-01 · §1 Identification

What is being examined.

One sentence · precise · name the specific thing, not the category.
Preserved verbatim. Never paraphrased.
Determines signal weight. Secondhand/speculative triggers PRELIMINARY flag.
ORP-01 · §2 Inversion Diagnostic

What is fixed · what varies · who pays.

If α or P(detect) = low → triggers NOMINALLY CONSTANT flag.
ORP-01 · §3 Gradient

Pressure · maintenance · the seed crystal.

The concrete place where the call to action lands.
ORP-01 · §4 SignalChain

Find the first break in the chain.

If this differs from Q3.05 stratum → triggers STRATUM MISMATCH flag.
ORP-01 · §5 Orientation

Correct invariant · what must be freed · immunity.

Can education about this structure be suppressed by a single actor?
Does distribution require a controlled channel?
Can an incumbent concentrate finance to block it?
Is legitimacy dependent on external validation?
All four "No" → approaching capture immune.

What this is

The Signal Ledger is the reference implementation of the Open Ring Protocol stack — ORP-01 (questions), ORP-02 (verdict), ORP-03 (Field record).

A ledger only means something when nobody owns it. Records here are signed Nostr events of kind 1337 — owned by the person who filed them, verifiable by anyone, stored across the relay network.

The framework holds itself to its own condition: α × P(detect) > 1. A signed Nostr event satisfies both. A Google Sheet satisfies neither.

One-paste filing

The Import button on the File a record tab accepts the READY TO FILE block produced by the pocket operator. Paste the block, every matching Q-field auto-fills, review the form, sign. Full cycle in under a minute.

The protocol stack
ORP-01 Question Protocol input layer The questions and answer types. ORP-02 Verdict Protocol processing layer The nine-field standard output. V.01 through V.09. ORP-03 Field Protocol output layer The signed record on Nostr kind 1337.

How to connect

Uses NIP-07 — a browser extension that holds your Nostr private key and signs events without exposing the key.

Compatible: Alby, nos2x, Nostore (iOS), Kiwi Browser + nos2x (Android).
