AIUAR – AI Universal Address Reference
Part of the AIURM Protocol
AIURM/AIUAR is a set of conventions and abstractions for persistent, governable, and expansible cognitive workflows.
It creates an operational space in which data, logic, and results can be organized, addressed, reused, and executed across any LLM and any substrate, without initially relying on specific infrastructure.
Requires: LLM + CLI + filesystem – everyone already has this.
“I need to define what, with what, and for what. The AI resolves the how.”
The Structure
aiuar_root/│└── *****contextspace ← operational universe │ └── ****entity ← owner / team / organization │ ├── governance/ ← pipeline contract (read-only) │ └── ***project ← a workflow │ └── **session ← an execution instance │ ├── data/ ← *data_x raw inputs ├── logic/ ← *logic_x rules └── result/ ← *result_x outputsEvery artifact has a universal address:*****contextspace****entity***project**session*markerOne address. Any substrate. Zero ambiguity.
How It Works (Claude Code)
The protocol stack
This is everything that makes AIURM/AIUAR work:
aiuar_root/├── CLAUDE.md ← instructs the AI to load the skills before any operation└── skill/ └── aiurm_protocol/ ├── aiurm/SKILL.md ← marker protocol — [*markers], DLR, intention suffixes ├── aiuar/SKILL.md ← addressing system — 5-level hierarchy, execute command ├── governance/SKILL.md ← contract standard — mandatory sections, field rules └── changelog/SKILL.md ← mutation tracking — snapshots, undo, change history**CLAUDE.md** tells Claude Code to read these files before any operation.**Each SKILL.md** is plain text — readable by any human, executable by any LLM.*This is the entire protocol stack.*---**Governance** is the contract. A plain text file that defines:- what data the pipeline consumes- what logic it applies- what results it must produceThe AI reads the governance and executes. No code. No framework.**DLR** is the execution atom:| Node | Marker | Meaning ||--------|-------------|--------------------------------|| Data | `*data_x` | the input — the fact || Logic | `*logic_x` | the rule — what to do || Result | `*result_x` | the output — what was produced |**AIUAR address** is the handle to any artifact, anywhere:*****contextspace_example****adaoaper***project_hr**session_1*result_performance
The Operational Environment
Built-in environment projects handle cross-cutting concerns automatically:*****contextspace_environment └── ****general ├── ***project_audit ← execution records ├── ***project_log ← step-by-step log ├── ***project_exception ← failure records ├── ***project_code ← generated code artifacts └── ***project_changelog ← governance & logic mutationsAnd extensible by design — add `project_semaphore`, `project_contract`, `project_communication`when your workflows need coordination, validation, or messaging.These extensions are still in the ideation phase and have not yet been implemented.
Execute a Workflow
execute {governance_path}
The AI reads the governance file, loads data and logic markers, executes all result steps in order,
and deposits each result at the correct address. One command. Deterministic. Auditable.
Substrate Agnostic
The same workflow runs on:| Substrate | Form ||-----------------|------------------------|| Filesystem | folders and files || JSON | a single portable file || Key-value store | hierarchical keys |Every artifact lives within the AIUAR space — addressable by any agentthat can resolve the notation, on any substrate.The JSON substrate, for example, enables portability — opening many possibilities.Substrate materialization is only limited by the resolver's capability.
Practical Demo – Step by Step
What you will see:
- Agent 1 executes a 14-step HR analysis pipeline from a governance file
- Agent 1 materializes the entire project into a single portable JSON file
- Agent 2 — fresh session, zero context — receives only the JSON path and reproduces the full pipeline

Why This Matters
Current orchestration tools treat the AI as a function inside a software stack.
AIURM/AIUAR inverts this: the AI is the runtime. The protocol is the operating system. The substrate is storage.
No server. No daemon. No vendor lock-in. No framework to install.
The workflow is a text file. The executor is the model. The contract is governance.
