CARTO User Guide
What CARTO Is
CARTO is the SnapKitty law engine. It combines:
- a
Prologreasoning kernel - a
COBOLprocedure kernel - a
REXXglue kernel - a reasoning fabric for engine attach and meta-lawyer spawn
- a trust deed layer for governance and authority control
It is a legal operations and reasoning system. It is not a filing bot and it is not autonomous legal advice.
Core Surfaces
1. Corpus
The corpus holds the legal terrain:
- credit repair
- sovereign trust architecture
- ACH dispute protocol
- FCRA / Metro 2 / zombie debt
- fiduciary and agent law
- bankruptcy
- trust account scan
- Moorish trust framework
- IRS CatCode defense
2. Kernel Team
CARTO / Prologhandles standing, doctrine, breach, and terrainCOBOLhandles corporate chunks, notices, ledgers, and records packetsREXXhandles workflow movement, summons routing, and operator glue
3. Reasoning Fabric
The reasoning fabric controls:
- engine attach
- audit gate
- summon route
- meta-lawyer spawn
- WORM seal
4. Trust Deed Layer
The trust deed layer controls:
- deed generation
- action scope
- escalation authority
- trustee and restriction rules
How To Think About Routing
Use Prolog when the work is about:
- standing
- breach
- doctrine
- legal classification
Use COBOL when the work is about:
- claim packets
- trust-account routines
- notices
- corporate formation procedure
- institution-shaped exports
Use REXX when the work is about:
- workflow movement
- records routing
- net-bound query handoff
- repeated office actions
Typical Flow
- operator identifies the matter
CARTOaudits and classifies the matter- the kernel lane is selected
- if outside reasoning is needed, the reasoning fabric attaches an external engine
- if action authority is needed, a trust deed is generated or attached
- output is sealed into WORM when the path is complete
What Is Live Versus Scaffolded
Live In Repo
- corpus layout
- kernel definitions
- reasoning-fabric definitions
- trust deed runtime scaffolding
- GitHub Pages frontend scaffold
Still Scaffolded
- live external engine calls
- live deed form submission
- live WORM persistence target
- runtime tests
Operator Rules
- do not treat output as self-executing legal advice
- do not bypass the deed layer for spawn or escalation
- do not treat a scenario description as a court-ready filing
- do not treat scaffolded runtime modules as production bindings
