Constructs are split across sealed cells so memory, persona, and authority can be governed as separate custody objects.

MIKOSHI-IX / RUNTIME SPECIFICATION
VAULT / PARTITION / SIMULATION
A construct is only sovereign when its prison has governance.
Mikoshi is specified as Arasaka's post-biological continuity runtime: partitioned construct vaulting, memory thaw control, rehearsal chambers, witness-bound drift suppression, and release gates for authority that must survive the body.
Release requires biological proof, board quorum, and regional custody witness before any construct enters simulation or interface state.
Persona variance is bounded against witness material, signed decision priors, and continuity rehearsal baselines.
Runtime Modules
Mikoshi turns the afterlife into infrastructure.
The runtime separates construct storage from construct use. Capture arrives as evidence; simulation runs as a governed workload; release remains a legal event.
VLT-01
Partitioned Construct Vault
Stores engram shards in isolated custody cells with separate keys for memory trace, authority record, and persona execution state.
THW-02
Biometric Thaw Gate
Allows controlled interface only after a living proof, discontinuity proof, or board-sealed succession trigger matches the custody ledger.
SIM-03
Succession Rehearsal Chamber
Runs high-pressure board, market, family, and hostile-counterparty scenarios before any construct is trusted with authority.
ISO-04
Hostile Construct Isolation
Quarantines coercive payloads, rogue AI hooks, blackmail vectors, and self-modifying persona fragments before they reach the custody core.
Runtime Envelope
Storage is cheap. Governed resurrection is not.
Mikoshi only enters client scope when Arasaka can prove custody lineage, legal release authority, construct stability, and a reversible failure path.
Intake objectSigned engram shard, Relic capture package, or Soulkiller extraction receipt
Partition modelMemory, affect, authority, and execution state separated by quorum keys
Simulation modeBoard room, market shock, family succession, hostile interrogation, silent archive
Release authorityTokyo root quorum with regional custody witness and export license
Abort pathCold rollback, partition freeze, witness challenge, construct silence order
Continuity Routing
Mikoshi is the custody layer beneath Relic, Soulkiller, executive continuity, and board succession.
The runtime does not promise escape from death. It converts identity into a governed asset class with custody evidence, simulated authority, and release conditions that can survive institutional shock.
