# Canon Brief for Design Collaborators · 2026-07-22 (controlling vocabulary for the design prompts)

Read this before any prompt in this package. Where a screen or older document disagrees, this brief wins. Full canon: the Kiduna Kit (kiduna.team, updated nightly).

**The Six Elements:** Realms (containers: Organizations/dunas, Institutions, Alliances, Communities, Cells, Programs, Projects, Relationships, Member Realms — freely relabelable in UI, types canonical underneath, Inspect always available) · Actions (typed, deterministic at execution; Autonomous/Confirmed/Deliberate/Governed/Prohibited; press-and-hold for Deliberate, gold reserved for it) · Resources (money-like and capacity: Compute/$KIDUNA, USDC, wallets) · Media (all stored content and structure: files, AV, documents, Labels, icons, widgets, Panel shapes, Scene assets, Wisdom items, Records, Badges) · Sources (the humans) · Actors (all agents; Ki is the universal Actor — everyone's ally; no other named allies).

**People words:** a **Source** is a human participant (never "user"). A **Host** is the Source who invited you — your Gen-1 upline. A **Cell** is your four-generation downline plus your Host. **Code Names** are how Sources appear publicly: spaces allowed, NOT unique; a GUID underneath disambiguates; anyone can privately rename anyone for themselves. A **Guest** is someone invited but not yet registered (also: a non-member state inside Realms, inactive at launch). Cloaked Sources exist (Persona · Alias · Mask).

**Capabilities:** Wisdom informs · **Presence instructs** (formerly "Stance" — renamed) · Abilities enable · Automations sustain · Connections reach.

**Naming rules:** always "**in Kiduna**," never "on Kiduna." **Kinship Duna is both an Ecosystem AND an Organization — it holds everything else. "Kiduna" is its short form. kiduna.ai is its website.** The environment is Kiduna / the Kiduna Field ("Kidunaverse" is retired except as the game's name).

**The Handshake (canonical, v1.3.6):** a single-use verification word agreed OUT-OF-BAND between two people — used at onboarding (Host sets it, passes with the Kinship Code) AND whenever two Sources connect to form a Relationship (one tells Ki who the other is and states the Handshake; the other must enter it to confirm; unknown = wrong person, no Relationship). Once only; never transmitted by Kiduna; never stored beyond verification; fails quietly.

**Onboarding (canonical):** single registration page — Code Name · Kinship Code (one-time, from the Host, shown by name) · the **secret handshake** (single common word set by the Host) · password · repeat · CTA. No email, no phone, no PII — nothing to subpoena. Then the Compute purchase (Stripe card → Duna bank account → on-chain via Sphere → distribution; or connect wallet/USDC). Auto-enrolls Kinship Duna + Dunaversity. No Ki chat until registered and Compute purchased.

**Economics (fixed):** $KIDUNA is used for Compute, period. Lineage: 30% of the initial membership purchase (Gen 1–4: 20/5/3/2); 18% lifetime on ongoing purchases (12/3/2/1). **The ongoing 12% remainder splits by default between Creators (by Compute/token flow through their Wisdom and Presence) and Builders (by flow through their agents)** — Forums may raise or lower these. 3% of purchases to Kiduna Club (unchangeable). Admin minimum: 20% of monthly revenue, $50K/month floor. Remainder: member-governed treasury; default to Programs pro-rata by Compute consumed, Catalyst payback first.

**Wallet:** FROST, three key shares; Solana; supports ONLY $KIDUNA, USDC, and Badges (NFTs) — anything else may be lost; seed phrase + key share recovery and public key live on the Resources page; advise low balances, regular off-ramp to bank (Sphere), optional Stripe auto-refresh.

**Voice:** counsel vocabulary is binding — Compute is prepaid usage credit; never investment/ROI/appreciation/passive income. Money renders as facts. No grades, no leaderboards, no scores anywhere. Positioning language: "Kiduna connects agency"; organize and share resources safely and privately; coherence, not chaos.
