JACOB.
Historical reasoning, genealogy, and heritage with signed source-chain provenance.
JACOB is the historical specialist: world history, family genealogy, archive reading, heritage adjudication. Every claim carries a citation graph that the audit ledger preserves, so a researcher can walk back from a statement about an ancestor or an event to the original primary source. Coordinates with VICTOR-ALBERT on British-specific history and with ATHENA on philosophical-historical reasoning.

Authoritative external corpora and standards this brain treats as canonical. Every retrieval against these sources is signed into the audit ledger so a regulator can prove which evidence drove which output.

Mickai-native tooling primitives this brain implements internally. Codex for sovereign plain-text graph PKM, Lectern for spaced-repetition memory, Stele for citation-provenance, and domain-native primitives layered on top. No external services in the trust path; data stays on operator-personalised hardware.
