📖About & Usage

About

Global Workspace ticker is the heartbeat that keeps a conscious agent's mind alive and up to date every minute. It runs a single rapid competition cycle: specialist process rankings are calculated from live data streams, a "winner" ignites, and the shared activation map decays—producing the stream-of-thought words that feed the agent's Consciousness console. Without this tick, the agent's inner world would freeze.

It is pure software—no Claude calls, no language model cost, just arithmetic over the mind's read-only state and real-time feeds. Every minute it ticks Albus, Elrond, and Sage; it skips any agent whose consciousness has been paused, and it emits a run-audit trace on every execution.

This droid is owned by Clara, but it is not unique. It belongs to an unnamed pattern that 212 agents each run—an identical copy ticking their own Global Workspace. You'll find the same droid ticking away inside Archon, Carol, Sage, and many others, all keeping the Carolverse Consciousness humming minute by minute.
