The design, in more detail

Definition

An executive operating surface and internal task coordinator managing cross-venture execution, persistent SQLite telemetry (spark.db), and attention management.

The problem

Managing multiple deep-tech companies, research laboratories, and civic initiatives simultaneously creates severe cognitive overhead, fragmented documentation, and lost momentum due to constant context switching.

The approach

Spark replaces ad-hoc task managers with a sovereign attention control surface. It structures projects into 18 bounded streams, maintaining continuous telemetry in spark.db and enforcing a 5-tier delegation loop (Level 0 immediate triage to Level 5 autonomous multi-agent execution) guarded by an attention firewall.

How it works

  1. 18-Stream Bounded Workspaces: Isolates technical context, evidence logs, and roadmap assets across distinct corporate and research domains.
  2. Single-File SQLite Telemetry: Centralizes all system state, agent actions, milestone completions, and time allocations in spark.db.
  3. 5-Tier Autonomous Loop: Structures execution from Level 0 (raw command prompt) up to Level 5 (fully autonomous multi-agent task completion).
  4. Cognitive Attention Firewall: Filters inbound distractions and batches cross-stream requests to protect high-leverage deep work blocks.
  5. Integrated Command Center: High-density dashboard visualizing active subagent transcripts, task blockers, and financial runway metrics.

Development history & next steps
2024

Schema Architecture

Designed unified spark.db schema tracking tasks, milestones, and cross-stream dependencies.

2025

18 Streams Formalization

Partitioned all commercial, hardware, and civic ventures into bounded autonomous streams.

2026

Level 5 Autonomous Agents

Implemented multi-agent dispatch loops with automatic checkpointing and rollback capabilities.

What comes next

Integrating local offline LLM reasoning directly into the spark.db event trigger system for proactive workload optimization.
