Semantic Taxonomy – Official Path Rules

This document defines how routes are organized inside .me.

Its goal is to prevent contamination between canonical semantics, operational state, and visual state.

General Rules

• The namespace is the owner of the meaning.
• profile.* and auth.* are canonical → they must be publishable and resolvable by cleaker.me.
• ui.* and runtime.* are local → they only exist in the .me of the current device or session.
• Never mix view state or device state inside canonical paths.

Official Categories Table

Writing Rules

• Writing to profile.* or auth.* from GUI components is forbidden unless an explicit flag is used (allowCanonicalWrite: true).
• ui.cleaker.* and runtime.cleaker.* are free to write.
• identity.session.* should only be written during login/logout.

Reading Rules

• Identity components must read from profile.* and auth.*.
• View state must read from ui.cleaker.*.
• Operational state must read from runtime.cleaker.*.

Correct and Incorrect Examples

Correct

me.profile.username = "jabellae"
me.auth.claimed_at = 1744300000000
me.runtime.cleaker.namespace = "suimacbook-air.local"
me.ui.cleaker.modalOpen = true

Incorrect (Contamination)

me.profile.modalOpen = true
me.profile.viewMode = "profile"
me.profile.rootHash = "0x..."
me.profile.namespace = "suimacbook-air.local"
