Ten mechanisms, ten emblems

Visual emblems representing core fleetmesh protocol mechanisms: identity, topology, replication, reputation, and distributed compute. Each emblem links directly to its normative specification section.

Part 01 · Identity, Cryptography & Genesis

Cryptographic Identity and Versioning

Cryptographic Identity Knot

Spec § Identity · kind 11801

Multi-key identity knot

A tri-fold knot unifying the three distinct cryptographic keys of a mesh node: secp256k1 for Nostr identities, x25519 for DIDComm encryption, and ed25519 for wire transport authentication.

Cryptographic Keyhole Emblem

Spec § Identity · Schnorr & multikey

Cryptographic keyhole

A tubular keyhole motif representing Schnorr signatures, private key encapsulation, and zero-knowledge capability verification.

schnorr / nostr signRead spec →
Protocol Version 0 Genesis

Spec § Governance · genesis draft

Protocol version 0 (genesis)

A numeral zero motif representing self-sovereign bootstrap without centralized coordinators, deterministic protocol version declarations, and the alpha contract.

Part 02 · Topology, Discovery & Node Classes

Topology and Transport Traversal

Anchor, Edge, and Leaf Node Classes

Spec § Node classes · 3 tiers

Three node classes (trio)

A three-tiered geometry depicting network roles: outer Anchor servers on static IPs, intermediate Edge servers behind NAT, and central Leaf clients on mobile devices and browser applications.

Gossipsub Lattice Swarm

Spec § Discovery · libp2p

Gossipsub lattice swarm

A symmetrical node lattice representing libp2p Gossipsub dissemination. Propagates node descriptors, peering grants, and verified fraud reports directly across peers, keeping bilateral receipts strictly private between session participants.

NAT Hole Punching Conduit

Spec § Transports · iroh QUIC

Hole-punched P2P conduit

Dual conduits traversing an outer boundary shield to establish direct point-to-point QUIC connections between NAT-constrained Edge nodes.

Part 03 · Replication, Reputation & Economics

Replication, Reputation and Settlement

NIP-77 Negentropy Range Reconciliation

Spec § Replication · NIP-77

Negentropy harmonic wave

Interlocking wave conduits illustrating hierarchical fingerprint tree reconciliation. Two relays identify precise differences across shard ranges using minimal bandwidth instead of retransmitting entire datasets.

NIP-77 range syncRead spec →
Reverse Reputation Monitoring

Spec § Ladder · kind 30802

Reverse reputation radar

A radar lens with a central verification target representing local reputation scoring. Node operators evaluate signed fraud evidence through local subjective trust weights.

Grant Equilibrium Loop

Spec § Grants · kind 30801

Orbital grant equilibrium

An orbital ring illustrating rate budget balance: local token bucket allocation, cryptographic receipt hash chains, and AIMD window convergence.

AIMD token bucketRead spec →
Lightning Micropayment Compute

Spec § Compute · kind 30810

Lightning zap cipher

A lightning filament encased in an execution capsule, representing deterministic WASM compute, invoice preimage settlement, and cryptographic execution proofs.

The emblems provide visual references for core protocol mechanisms defined in the normative Fleetmesh Specification and detailed in the Reputation Deep Dive.
