The '''Psi Mesh''' is the [[Tho'ra Clan]]'s peer-to-peer encrypted radio mesh for [[HelmKit]]-equipped operators and [[Field Recorder]] units in the field. It carries [[Psi-Tech]] telemetry, threat-signature exchange, and operator state-sharing across a small team without depending on cellular or internet infrastructure. The Psi Mesh is the field substrate that the [[PsiNet]] and the [[Earth Intelligence Network]] connect into when uplink is available, and stands alone when it is not.

== Overview ==

The Psi Mesh is, architecturally:

* '''Layer 1: radio''' — 433/868/915 MHz LoRa or 2.4 GHz BLE-mesh, operator-jurisdiction-appropriate.
* '''Layer 2: routing''' — Reticulum or B.A.T.M.A.N.-adv, store-and-forward, single-hop and multi-hop transparent.
* '''Layer 3: identity''' — keys from the operator's [[Resonant Card]] (or in-helm Mk1 keypair).
* '''Layer 4: content''' — signed [[Psi-Tech]] telemetry frames, [[Psi Defender]] threat signatures, [[Psi Recorder]] session digests, terse text.

Bandwidth is small (kbit/s, not Mbit/s). The mesh is for ''coordination'', not media.

== Theoretical Basis ==

* {{Psi-claim|status=PROVISIONAL|cites=}} LoRa and Reticulum are mature off-grid mesh substrates with documented field deployments.
* {{Psi-claim|status=PROVISIONAL|cites=}} BLE-mesh / Reticulum identity binding through commodity secure-elements is a solved problem.
* {{Psi-claim|status=TESTABLE|cites=[[Psionic Threat Model]]}} Real-time team-share of [[Psi Defender]] threat signatures materially improves group situational awareness in hostile-EM environments. This is the Mk2 evaluation question.

== Subsystems and BOM ==

=== Mk0 (target ≤ \$0 per operator) ===

Group text thread + group voice channel + paper map. Documented as a baseline; the Mk1+ Psi Mesh must outperform this.

=== Mk1 (per node, target ≤ \$120) ===

* nRF52840 + LoRa SX1262 module (RAK4630 or similar) — \$30
* PCB or wire antenna for chosen band — \$5
* USB-C battery harness — \$10
* HelmKit pairing connector (JST-GH) — \$5
* Enclosure (3D print) — \$10
* Per-node provisioning amortized

=== Mk2 / Mk3 ===

Mk2: meshed LoRa + BLE-mesh hybrid, gateway nodes that bridge to [[Earth Intelligence Network|EIN]] when uplink is available. Mk3: integration with the [[Resonant Pipeline]] and the [[Star Seer Observatory]] feeds.

== Build Notes ==

* '''Band per jurisdiction.''' Operators must use license-exempt bands legal in their region. The mesh stack is band-agnostic.
* '''Identity = Resonant Card.''' Mesh nodes pair to the operator's Resonant Card on first boot; identity is portable across hardware.
* '''Frame budget.''' Default per-operator: 1 telemetry frame / 30 s, 1 threat-signature on detect, text on demand. Higher rates require coordinator approval.
* '''No raw biosignal.''' Biosignals stay on the [[Psi Recorder]]; the mesh carries digests and markers only.

== Safety and Ethics ==

* Encrypted by default. End-to-end via per-operator keypair.
* Local-first. The mesh does not phone home unless a gateway node is present and consented.
* Direction-finding hardening. Default duty cycle low; LoRa spreading factor chosen to balance range vs DF-vulnerability.
* No remote-command of one operator's HelmKit by another. The mesh exchanges information; it does not exchange control.

== Maturity ==

{{Psi-tech-maturity
| mk0=Group text + voice + paper map.
| mk1=LoRa nodes + Reticulum, signed telemetry + threat-signature frames. Current frontier.
| mk2=LoRa + BLE-mesh hybrid; [[Earth Intelligence Network|EIN]] gateway bridging.
| mk3=Full [[Resonant Pipeline]] and [[Star Seer Observatory]] integration.
| confidence_mk0=HIGH (it works as well as group chat does)
| confidence_mk1=HIGH (LoRa + Reticulum is mature)
| confidence_mk2=MEDIUM

| evidence_mk1=Bench multi-node throughput tests; pilot deployments.
| evidence_mk2=Planned 2030–2033.
| evidence_mk3=Projected post-2032.
| gate_mk1=Five-node 24-hour field exercise; ≥ 95 % frame delivery; identity portable across two hardware swaps.
| gate_mk2=Twenty-node multi-band exercise; gateway bridge to [[Earth Intelligence Network|EIN]] tested.
| gate_mk3=Federated multi-site continuous mesh with [[Resonant Pipeline]] ingest.
}}

== Failure Modes and Mitigations ==

* '''Duty-cycle violation in regulated band.''' → Firmware enforces regional duty-cycle caps; operator cannot exceed without re-flash.
* '''Lost node = lost key.''' → Revocation propagated via Resonant Card revocation log.
* '''Mesh partition.''' → Store-and-forward; nodes hold frames for next reachable hop.
* '''Direction-finding by adversary.''' → Low duty cycle; jurisdiction-appropriate spreading factor; emission cap.
* '''Sybil attack.''' → Operator identities bound to issued Resonant Cards; sybils require physical issuance.
* '''Operator burdened by mesh.''' → HelmKit surfaces only actionable mesh events; raw frames stay in the [[Psi Recorder]] log.
