This document captures all prompts, decisions, and progress throughout the project development.
User initialized the Distributed Computer project to build native Rust infrastructure for a justice-based sharing economy.
- Language: Rust (for performance, memory safety, security)
- Framework: Build from scratch (vs. Substrate) for full control
- Consensus: Hybrid PoC (50%) + PoR (30%) + Stake (20%)
- Token: Hogwarts Coin (HWC) - 60% contributors, fair launch
- First Integration: Hogwarts school platform

| Alternative | Decision |
|---|---|
| Custom Oracle | Selected - tailored to formula |
| SourceCred | Inspiration for patterns |
| GitHub Actions | No blockchain integration |
| Chainlink | Overkill for MVP |
Phase 2 (Planning) - Current:
├── 2.1 Write/refine PRD
├── 2.2 Define MVP scope
├── 2.3 Create epics
├── 2.4 Break into stories
├── 2.5 Configure GitHub issues
└── 2.6 Update workflow status
Phase 3 (Solutioning) - Next:
├── 3.1 Architecture doc ✓ (created)
├── 3.2 API specifications
├── 3.3 Data model schemas
└── 3.4 Network topology
Phase 4 (Implementation) - After Solutioning:
For each Sprint:
For each Story:
1. /dc-sm → Review story
2. /dc-dev → Implement
3. /dc-qa → Test
4. Commit with conventional format
5. /dc-oracle → Record contribution
6. Update status files

- Memory safety without garbage collection
- Performance comparable to C/C++
- Strong type system prevents bugs at compile time
- Used by Solana, Polkadot, Ethereum clients
- Best-in-class for cryptographic applications
- Full control over contribution tracking logic
- No dependency on Polkadot ecosystem
- Optimized specifically for Proof of Contribution
- Aligned with self-sovereign philosophy
- Deep understanding of internals
- Battle-tested by IPFS, Ethereum, Filecoin
- Native Rust implementation (rust-libp2p)
- Handles NAT traversal, peer discovery
- Supports gossip protocols for real-time updates
- PoC (50%): Rewards historical contributors
- PoR (30%): Rewards resource providers
- Stake (20%): Prevents spam without plutocracy
-
Complete Phase 2 (Planning):
- Refine PRD with MVP scope
- Create epic files in
docs/epics/ - Break Epic 1 (P2P Network) into stories
- Create GitHub issues for Sprint 1
-
Begin Phase 3 (Solutioning):
- API specifications
- Data model schemas
- Network topology diagrams
-
Start Implementation:
- Story 1.1: libp2p setup with Kademlia DHT
- Follow story lifecycle through to Done
"ultrathink carry on"
Continuation of BMAD workflow to complete Phase 2 (Planning) and Phase 3 (Solutioning).
