ConceptKernel BFO Ontology

Three loops. Three Description Logic boxes. One Material Entity.

An open protocol for autonomous concept governance. Every entity typed against BFO 2020 (ISO 21838-2) with formal IAO/CCO/PROV-O mid-level grounding.

7 Modules
-- Classes
-- Properties
-- Individuals
-- Total Entities

Three Loops as Description Logic Boxes

TBox CK Loop

Identity & type definitions. conceptkernel.yaml, ontology.yaml, rules.shacl

RBox TOOL Loop

Capability & executable code. tool/processor, language runtime

ABox DATA Loop

Asserted facts & instances. storage/instances, proof, ledger

Ontology Layering Strategy

Layer 0
BFO 2020 ISO 21838-2 — foundational categories
Layer 0.5
IAO + CCO + PROV-O + ValueFlows Mid-level ontologies for agents, artifacts, provenance, economics
Layer 1
CKP v3.6 9 modules — Core, Metadata, Processes, Relations, Instances, Proof, RBAC, Edges, Consensus
Layer 2
Per-Kernel Domain Schemas ontology.yaml + rules.shacl per kernel
