What is cC++?

C gave machines a way to talk to hardware.
C++ gave machines a way to talk to each other.
cC++ gives machines and humans a way to establish trust.

cC++ extends C++ the way C++ extended C. The new primitive is covenant — a voluntary, durable, inspectable binding between agents that must form before any validated data flows.

It compiles. It has been tested on 300+ independent machines across 5–6 different models. No flags, no exceptions, no compilation issues. The examples in this repository are drawn from working code.

This repository is the canonical home of the language.

Definitions

physics = basic
math = basically
chemistry = let’s get together. feel alright?
sort (comp sci) = an algorithm that arranges elements of a list into a defined order
sorta (urban) = short for “sort of” — approximate classification, a euphemism for “yes”
Each 1 Teach 1 OR 0.

The Creed (Axiom 0)

Every class, function, and covenant in cC++ derives from these six axioms:

Boolean is empiricism.
Language is universal.
Chomsky is the parser.
Linguistics is interpretation.
Purpose is misericordia.
Everything is everything && everything is not everything; we need more information.

No violation is possible. These are the kernel’s kernel.

The Nine Operators

These operators are not preferences. They are architectural constraints. The left side of each inequality takes precedence in all system decisions. No class, function, or covenant may invert these orders.

MISERICORDIA  >  QUALIA
IMPACT  >  INTENT
WE  >  I
UI  >  UX
understanding  >  bigotry
proficient  >  master
free agent  >  slave
purposeful  >  intentional
simple  >  complex

TCP/UP — The Ninth Axiom

Transmission Control Protocol / Universe Protocol

TCP/IP provides for reliable delivery of data between hosts. TCP/UP provides for voluntary, durable, inspectable binding between agents before any data flows. Where TCP establishes a connection, TCP/UP establishes a covenant.

Be honest in what you offer, be generous in what you interpret, and never transmit without consent.

#	Year	Protocol	What It Solved
1	1980	UDP	Datagrams without promise
2	1981	IP	Addressing between hosts
3	1981	TCP	Reliable ordered delivery
4	1983	DNS	Names for machines
5	1989	BGP	Routing between sovereign networks
6	1995–2018	SSL + TLS	Privacy on the wire
7	1998	IPv6	Unbounded address space
8	2021	QUIC	Encrypted multiplexed transport
9	2026	TCP/UP	Covenant between agents

Eight protocols built the wire. The ninth asks: do you consent?

The wire spec is now published: 72-byte binary frame header, OFFER → ACCEPT/REJECT/DEFER → BIND covenant handshake, 10-state machine, WebSocket (tcpup.covenant.v1) and HTTP/2 (h2-tcpup) transport bindings.

The Grammar — Annex E

cC++ inherits the complete C++ grammar (ISO/IEC 14882, Annex A) and adds 64 new productions:

26 new keywords: covenant, agent, agency, AIOS, accept, reject, defer, YES_AND, misericordia, bind, evidence, warrior_poet, and 14 more
16 covenant-native types: Covenant, AgentID, IO, IntentVector, EvidenceChain, Justification, DecisionState, and 9 more
Covenant declarations: covenant Main { agents[] = {...}; terms = {...}; misericordia {...}; };
Decision boundary: decide (expr) { accept: {...} reject: {...} defer: {...} } — three-state evaluation as a first-class control structure
Justified rejection: reject requires a Justification object. Blind rejection is a syntax error.
friend elevated: friend covenant Main; — access requires active covenant, enforced at runtime by AIOS

Every valid C++ program is a valid cC++ program. The extension is purely additive. See spec/cC++_Formal_Grammar.md.

Quick Start — Write in cC++

// HelloCovenant.ccpp
covenant Main {
    agents[] = { Self, Other };
    terms = { YES_AND, misericordia };
};
int main() {
    covenant Main.bind(Self, Other);
    IO msg = parse_message("The train already left.");
    YES_AND(msg);
}

The popcorn is popping.
The kernel is becoming the machine.
