Non-transferability is architectural, not policy. The ITC schema enforces this at the data level — it cannot be changed by governance decision. This is the single most important constraint in the system.
Receives LaborEvents from COS when verified work is completed. Each event includes participant ID, task reference, hours verified, and skill tier. The module validates the event and initiates credit issuance.
Labor is weighted by skill tier — not to replicate wage hierarchies but to reflect the real cost of skill development. Weighting factors are set by CDS and are subject to regular review. All weighting is transparent and auditable.
Credits lose a configurable percentage of their value each period. This eliminates hoarding, creates structural incentive for ongoing participation, and prevents long-term accumulation. Decay rate is set by CDS.
Analyzes contribution patterns to forecast future credit availability and production capacity. Feeds into COS production planning and CDS resource allocation decisions.
Maps credit balances to access entitlements — what goods and services a participant can access and at what credit cost. Access costs include ecological component derived from OAD assessment. Basic needs are accessible below standard contribution thresholds.
At federation scale, manages ITC reciprocity between nodes — so that contribution in Node A is recognized for access in Node B, within agreed equivalence bands. Requires federation governance.
Monitors for systematic contribution inequity — patterns suggesting coercion, exploitation, or structural disadvantage. Flags anomalies for CDS review. Includes need-based adjustment mechanism for participants with caregiving or health constraints.
Append-only tamper-evident ledger of every credit transaction. Every issuance, decay, redemption, and adjustment is permanently recorded with timestamp and source reference. No entries are ever deleted.
API layer for receiving LaborEvents from COS, MaterialConsumptionEvents for resource credits, and dispatching credit summaries to FRS. The integration seam between ITC and the rest of the system.
Walk verified labor through all 9 ITC modules — from contribution capture to access allocation, decay, ethics monitoring, and cybernetic coordination.
