# V6 — Features (Page Index)

This directory holds the V6 (Egbe — an agentic-companion universe where
autonomous AI agents live persistent lives and the player is their steward)
feature map, decomposed from the single [`../V6_features.md`](../V6_features.md)
hub into focused, in-depth, code-grounded pages. The hub remains the canonical
entry point and preserves every section heading; each page below expands one
part of the product with richer, code-grounded detail and an honest implemented
/ spec-only status. The companion architecture reference lives in
[`../architecture/`](../architecture/README.md).

> **Cross-reference convention.** Page-to-page links are relative
> (`./<slug>.md`); the architecture companion for a feature page is linked as
> `../architecture/<slug>.md`. Platform-foundation links point at the shared
> [`platform/`](../../platform/overview.html) space.

## Feature landscape

```mermaid
flowchart TB
  Player[Player as steward] --> VAC[Voice text and embodied communication]
  VAC --> Ori[Ori identity autonomy and portable biography]
  Ori --> Cognition[Agent minds grounding goals and action]
  Cognition --> Moirai[Moirai persistent life simulation]
  Moirai --> Orun[Orun world relationships and offline progression]
  Orun --> Story[Clio story fate endings and legacy]
  Ori --> Aye[Aye cross-game incarnation]
  Orun --> Commons[Meta-hub Commons creation and live service]
  Story --> Governance[Welfare safety provenance consent and commerce]
  Commons --> Governance
  Governance --> Operations[Evals cost accessibility localization rollout and launch]
```

The landscape expresses the stewardship thesis: communication may influence an
Ori, but durable identity, simulation, cognition, autonomy policy, and world
authority govern what happens. Story and embodiment derive from that life; they
do not replace its canonical state.

Use this index to choose the player/Ori/world job, pair it with the owning
[architecture page](../architecture/README.md), and trace consented identity,
deterministic state, probabilistic generation, governed effects, disclosure, and
recovery. Then check backlog, dependencies, current code/tests/evals, flagship
evidence, model/client tiers, release records, and operations before describing
the behavior as supported.

Every focused feature topic appears exactly once below. The
[V6 documentation guide](../docs/README.md) supplies welfare-aware truth
vocabulary and role paths; the [diagram atlas](../docs/diagram-atlas.md)
supplies cognition, identity, lifecycle, ownership, stewardship, and release
models. Cross-links add context without blurring canonical ownership.

## Orientation

- [Overview & Design Posture](./overview-and-design-posture.md) — what V6 is and
  the agentic-companion design posture.
- [Glossary & Conventions](./glossary-and-conventions.md) — every V6 subsystem
  mapped to code, and the conventions.
- [Product Promise & Surfaces](./product-promise-and-surfaces.md) — the promise
  and the surfaces players touch.

## The World and the Ori

- [The World of Orun](./world-of-orun.md) — Orun as a place: its districts,
  persistence, and what living there is like.
- [The Ori: Portable Identity](./ori-portable-identity.md) — the persistent
  identity/personality/biography that makes each agent an individual.

## Agent Cognition

- [Agent Minds & Autonomy](./agent-minds-and-autonomy.md) — how agents think and
  act autonomously, and what makes them feel alive.
- [The Moirai Simulation](./moirai-simulation-kernel.md) — how agents' lives
  advance day to day, even when you're not watching.

## Stewardship, Communication, and Fate

- [Stewardship: The Player's Role](./stewardship-the-player-role.md) — the
  steward role: guiding rather than commanding.
- [VAC: Communicating with Agents](./vac-communication.md) — how the player
  talks with agents and how they understand and respond.
- [Guiding Fate, Legacy & Story](./guiding-fate-legacy-and-story.md) — guiding
  an agent's fate, legacy at their end, and the emergent story.

## Shared Worlds, Creation, and Live-Service

- [The Meta-Hub & Commons](./meta-hub-and-commons.md) — the shared social space
  and the community commons.
- [Egbe Studio & Live Service](./egbe-studio-and-live-service.md) — the creation
  tools and the live-service programming.

## Trust, Safety, and the Launch Bar

- [Governance, Safety & Commerce](./governance-safety-and-commerce.md) — the
  governance model, safety + agent welfare, and commerce.
- [Accessibility & Localization](./accessibility-and-localization.md) —
  accessibility and localization (including localizing agent speech).
- [Evals, Cost & Budgets](./evals-cost-and-budgets.md) — the eval sets that keep
  agent behavior good and the cost/budget model.
- [Cross-Platform, Rollout & Launch](./cross-platform-rollout-and-launch.md) —
  cross-platform support, region rollout, and launch readiness.
