MOVA 4.1.1 – Core Spec Patch Release

Summary

MOVA 4.1.1 is a patch release over 4.1.0.
There are no breaking JSON-schema changes (ds., env., global.*).
The release clarifies the core spec, security layer, text/UI rules, and layers/namespaces, and introduces the operator frame.

Highlights

• Core catalog cleanup

  • Core catalog examples contain only red-core artefacts (no Smartlink or other domain schemas).
  • ds.mova4_core_catalog_v1 and env.mova4_core_catalog_publish_v1 updated to 4.1.1 and aligned with the red-core inventory.

• Security layer as mandatory red core

  • mova_4.1.1_security_layer promoted the security layer to a required part of the core.
  • ds.security_event_episode_core_v1 and ds.instruction_profile_core_v1 are now explicitly aligned with global.security_catalog_v1.
  • Updated instruction profile and security event examples (no domain-specific tails).

• Text & UI layer alignment

  • mova_4.1.1_text_and_ui_layer defines clear text channels (human_ui, model_instruction, system_log, mixed_legacy).
  • ds.ui_text_bundle_core_v1 is aligned with global.text_channel_catalog_v1 and forbids mixing human UI text with model instructions.

• Layers & namespaces clarified

  • red_core is strictly language-only (ds/env/global, plus security/text/episodes/catalogs).
  • Domain schemas (Smartlink, social, e-commerce, etc.) are explicitly scoped to the skills layer.
  • Infra (runtimes, tools, vendors) is described as execution, not part of the language.

• Operator frame

  • New document mova_4.1.1_operator_frame.md introduces a 12-axis operator frame (what/how/where/when/why/...).
  • Constitution, episodes/genetic-layer, and security docs now reference the operator frame as the official audit lens.

Migration notes (4.1.0 → 4.1.1)

• No schema migrations are required if you already conform to MOVA 4.1.0.
• Recommended:
  • Update documentation references to 4.1.1.
  • Ensure your core catalog does not include domain schemas.
  • Align security events and instruction profiles with global.security_catalog_v1.
  • Check that text bundles use the correct text channels and do not mix human UI text with model instructions.

MOVA 4.1.0 — Core Spec, Security Layer and Runtime Contracts

Overview

This release promotes MOVA 4.1.0 to the canonical core specification.

Version 4.1.0 stabilises:

• the red core (data schemas, envelopes, global catalogs),
• the episode & genetic layer,
• the security layer (instruction profiles + security events),
• the text/UI layer (text channels + UI bundles),
• the runtime & connector core.

All 4.0.0 text documents are archived; 4.1.0 is the new single source of truth.

What’s new

1. Core schemas (red layer)

New and updated core schemas under schemas/:

• ds.mova_schema_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.mova_episode_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.security_event_episode_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.instruction_profile_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.runtime_binding_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.connector_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.ui_text_bundle_core_v1.schema.json
• ds.mova4_core_catalog_v1.schema.json

Core envelopes:

• env.mova4_core_catalog_publish_v1.schema.json
• env.instruction_profile_publish_v1.schema.json
• env.security_event_store_v1.schema.json

Global catalogs:

• global.episode_type_catalog_v1.json
• global.security_catalog_v1.json
• global.layers_and_namespaces_v1.json
• global.text_channel_catalog_v1.json

All schemas now use JSON Schema draft 2020-12.

---

2. Text specifications (docs/)

New 4.1.0 documentation:

• docs/mova_4.1.0_core.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_global_and_verbs.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_episodes_and_genetic_layer.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_layers_and_namespaces.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_security_layer.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_text_and_ui_layer.md
• docs/mova_4.1.0_runtime_and_connectors.md

These documents describe how the red core, episodes, security, text/UI and runtime/connector contracts fit together.

---

3. Security layer

The security layer is now part of the red core:

• instruction profiles: ds.instruction_profile_core_v1
• security event episodes: ds.security_event_episode_core_v1
• security catalogs: global.security_catalog_v1
• storage envelope: env.security_event_store_v1

Security events are first-class episodes with episode_type = "security_event/…", linked to instruction profiles and security_model_version.

---

4. Text & UI layer

A dedicated text/UI layer is introduced:

• global.text_channel_catalog_v1 (channels: human_ui, model_instruction, system_log, mixed_legacy)
• ds.ui_text_bundle_core_v1 for structured UI text bundles

The spec formalises separation of:

• human-facing UI copy,
• model instructions,
• system logs.

---

5. Runtime & connectors

Runtime and connector contracts are now explicitly defined:

• ds.runtime_binding_core_v1 — runtime binding core
• ds.connector_core_v1 — connector core

These schemas are vendor-neutral red core artefacts; concrete runtimes and connectors must extend them in the infra layer.

---

6. Validator and tooling

The validation tool has been updated:

• tools/validate_all.js now uses Ajv 2020 (ajv/dist/2020) and validates all schemas as draft 2020-12.
• All schemas in schemas/ are registered first, then validated, so $ref by $id (including the core schema) resolve correctly.

Run:

npm test
to validate all core schemas.

Migration notes
All previous 4.0.0 text documents are moved to:

text
Копировать код
docs/archive/4.0.0/
For any new work, use only the mova_4.1.0_*.md documents and 4.1.0 schemas as the authoritative specification.

Schema consumers must support JSON Schema draft 2020-12.

MOVA 4.1.0 is now the canonical contract for data, envelopes, episodes and security in the MOVA ecosystem.

MOVA 4.0.0 — core specification

First public publication of the MOVA 4.0.0 core specification.

Includes:

• Core language documents in docs/
• JSON Schemas in schemas/ (draft 2020-12)
• Basic examples in examples/
• Schema validator (npm test → Ajv 2020-12)
