Source & license

Everything on this site resolves to a file in the public source repository. These are the first paths into the standalone released slice.

Repository

Repository rootThe source of record for the standalone public slice.Open Plectis packageRunnable local source, public fixtures, and generated records; compatibility package ids still use microcosm.Open READMEThe entry point and the full component map.Open QuickstartThe one-page cold-clone run path.Open

Provenance

Plectis is an independent, AI-assisted project by Will Cook. The public release artifact is the standalone source repository, not the private working root behind it. Microcosm remains a legacy and technical compatibility name for repo paths, package ids, generated state, and historical links.

ProvenanceAuthorship, source-of-record, no-affiliation, and no-advice boundaries.Open

Lineage

Microcosm became Plectis on 21 June 2026 after a public naming check found an established Southampton hypermedia system with the same name. The acknowledgement is source-backed and does not imply endorsement or affiliation.

Site contract

The site is a static projection over public source refs. It has no runtime backend and no browser path back into the private working environment. It is not legal, financial, investment, trading, security, medical, or other professional advice.

The repository is the source of record. This site is a map over it, and when the two disagree, the repository wins.

Every page is generated from the source files listed above and the component index is a projection of them. The current content fingerprint is 30850b909d8aae06f4f841929476e38e; when the source changes, a rebuild regenerates the pages and a drift check fails until the site is current.

Projection status

One generator builds this whole site from the public source files above. The panel says what it was built from; the machine record beside it carries the full detail, including which source fields were too internal to show and were deliberately omitted.
