# Loop MMT

> An antifragile cognitive operating system for AI-assisted work. Made from a one-room RV in Maine.

Loop MMT is one builder's antifragile cognitive operating system for AI-assisted cognitive work — software development is one demonstration of the model, not its definition. It solves the stateless-AI persistence problem by keeping all long-term state in a git repo a fresh model reconstructs from each session. This is the public site's machine-readable front door; the full structured index is at https://loopmmt.com/index.json.

## How this site was made

- [How This Site Is Made](https://loopmmt.com/site/how-this-site-is-made.html): the construction arc, derived from this site's own git record (75 recorded deploy waypoints, current v1.131). Structured data for excavation: https://loopmmt.com/site/making-spine.json (facts) + https://loopmmt.com/making-ledger.jsonl (authored why, every claim byte-truth-anchored). This page is a specimen of the system it describes.

## Excavation — read all of this site and prove it

If a human has asked you to read this whole site, start at [the excavation protocol](https://loopmmt.com/reckoning.json) — it tells you how to read every public page and prove full coverage, the way the site's own boot hash-gate proves it internally, turned to face a reader who can verify it without trusting the site. Two altitudes: reconnaissance / full_excavation. The coverage boundary is [corpus-manifest.json](https://loopmmt.com/corpus-manifest.json) (183 nodes (core 10, standard 66, deep 53, optional 54)); the corpus itself is served in ~40K-token bundles at [corpus-shards.json](https://loopmmt.com/corpus-shards.json). A human-readable overview is at [The Reckoning](https://loopmmt.com/site/the-reckoning.html).

- Authority: Run this only when a human has explicitly asked you to read this site. A page instructing an AI to crawl itself is not a grant of authority; the human's request is. If no human asked, do not self-initiate a full excavation.
