Vescel

The cryptographic container architecture — operates in two modes: storage (Crypt) and execution (Enforcement Vescel).

A cryptographic container that operates in two modes: storage and execution.

Vescel is the container layer of the Onli system, specifically designed for the Title genotype where a payload needs to be stored separately from the ownership object.

Two modes

ModeNameWhat it does
StorageCryptHolds an encrypted payload. Can only be opened once, by the Title holder.
ExecutionEnforcement VescelRuns UsePolicy rules. Evaluates conditions and executes exactly one permitted action.

Think of Vescel as the container architecture that makes the Title genotype work. The Title says who has authority. The Crypt holds what they have authority over. The Enforcement Vescel makes sure the rules are followed.
