  "abstract": "Abstract Glyph Tokens are typed semantic carriers that compile messy human language into inspectable propositions, authorities, conditions, constraints, substitutions, uncertainties, evidence references, and actions. They are not tokenizer tokens and are not trusted merely because they are structured. Trust derives from source, authority, signature, project scope, compiler version, validators, current state, and human approval where required. The protocol is intended to make intent, routing, caching, verification, and consequential execution operate on one explicit graph while preserving exact source text and ambiguity.",
