<h2>1. Abstract</h2>
<p>newOS4 is a <strong>Cognitive Operating System</strong> — an agentic, AI-native fabric where intelligence is treated not as an application layer but as the kernel's primary resource. Unlike traditional OSs that manage CPU cycles and memory pages, newOS4 manages <strong>agentic workflows, semantic storage, and recursive self-optimization</strong> as first-class primitives.</p>

<h2>4. Pillar Deep Dives</h2>
<h3>4.1 Hyper-Modular Kernel</h3>
- <p>The kernel is a collection of hot-swappable driver modules loaded via the <strong>WPM (WebX11 Package Manager)</strong>. Each driver is an isolated ES module. A self-rewrite daemon monitors telemetry and generates optimized driver variants.</p>
+ <p>The kernel is a collection of 45 hot-swappable driver modules across three layers:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Infrastructure</strong> (3) — module-loader, module-manager, ollama-manager. Loaded by the constructor, providing boot-time services.</li>
+ <li><strong>Core</strong> (23) — terminal, VFS, AI assist, server monitor, ollama, orchestration, agent registry, neural VFS, mod manager, and more. Boot-loaded from the <code>BUILTIN</code> list at startup.</li>
+ <li><strong>Extension</strong> (19) — editor, mindmap, webdav, cron, diff, theme, wpm, calc, voice, busybox, cryptogzip, filemgr, shell, alias, finder, tutorial, skill-pack-core, and more. Demand-loaded via <code>packages.json</code>.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>All modules tracked in <code>modules-index.json</code> — the single source of truth for module-to-file mapping, class names, and load strategies. Layer separation eliminates confusion about which modules are core OS vs. user-installable packages.</p>
+ <p>Cache versioning via <code>?v=2026-06-03-neuralvfs</code> query parameter ensures all module loads use fresh files after system updates.</p>
<h3>4.2 A2A Protocol</h3>
- <p>Agent-to-Agent (A2A) is a standardized message format for agent negotiation. Agents discover each other via VFS registrations without a central broker.</p>
+ <p>Agent-to-Agent (A2A) is a standardized message format for agent negotiation. Agents register contracts with schema validation via <code>contract-register</code>, discover each other via <code>contract-list</code>, and negotiate task delegation without a central broker.</p>
+ <p>The orchestrator performs an A2A handshake before delegating tasks: it queries the contract registry for available agents matching the required capability, validates schemas, and negotiates a lease. This eliminates hardcoded agent routing in favor of dynamic capability discovery.</p>
+ <p>Key commands: <code>contract-register &lt;name&gt; &lt;capability&gt;</code>, <code>contract-list</code>, <code>validateTask &lt;contract_id&gt; &lt;payload&gt;</code>.</p>
+ <p>Contracts persist in VFS under <code>/system/contracts/</code> and survive page reloads.</p>
<h3>4.3 Neural VFS</h3>
- <p>Replaces hierarchical paths with semantic addressing (e.g., <code>concept://agentic-workflows/design-patterns</code>). Path resolution uses a semantic index and context cache.</p>
+ <p>Replaces hierarchical paths with semantic addressing. Users access files by concept rather than directory tree path.</p>
+ <p>Four terminal commands:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><code>nvfs-index</code> — Builds a semantic index of all VFS files, mapping concepts to file paths.</li>
+ <li><code>nvfs-status</code> — Shows index statistics (total concepts indexed, coverage).</li>
+ <li><code>nvfs-resolve &lt;concept&gt;</code> — Resolves a concept to its file path(s).</li>
+ <li><code>nvfs-tree [concept]</code> — Displays the semantic index as a concept tree.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>Plus <code>concept://</code> URI handler integrated into VFS <code>readFile()</code> and <code>ls()</code> — <code>cat concept://skill</code> resolves through the semantic index and returns actual file content. An AI tool <code>nvfs_resolve</code> is also available for AI-assisted concept lookups.</p>
<h3>4.4 Recursive Self-Optimization</h3>
- <p>The loop: <code>Monitor → Profile → Diagnose → Patch → Test → Promote</code>. This ensures the system evolves in real-time to eliminate latency.</p>
+ <p>The loop: <code>Monitor → Profile → Diagnose → Patch → Test → Promote</code>.</p>
+ <p>The <code>system-health</code> command provides real-time telemetry:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Tool Latency</strong> — Per-tool timing tracked in <code>/system/metrics/tool-latency.json</code>.</li>
+ <li><strong>VFS Stats</strong> — File count, directory count, total storage used.</li>
+ <li><strong>Module Stats</strong> — Loaded module count, registered agent count.</li>
+ <li><strong>Memory</strong> — Current usage vs. 4GB limit, tool call counts, error rates.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>Telemetry hooks are embedded in the AI tool-calling paths (safe and destructive) within <code>module-aiassist.js</code>, automatically logging every tool invocation. This data feeds future latency diagnosis and WPM patch generation.</p>
