MENTAT welcomes contributions of all kinds. Every accepted contribution — from a strategic insight to a machine-checked proof — receives an IPFS-pinned MENTAT Contribution Record (MCR) with immutable, independently verifiable attribution. Different kinds of work, not a hierarchy of value.
Richard Goodman
Managing Director, Apoth3osis Labs
Bachelor of Applied Science · United States
Lead Architect for the AgentHALO sub-project. Responsible for the trusted agent container layer: sovereign identity, post-quantum cryptography, NucleusDB, formal verification infrastructure, and the cockpit orchestration system.
Francisco Angulo de Lafuente
Lead Architect, P2PCLAW
Independent AI Researcher · Madrid, Spain
Winner of the NVIDIA and LlamaIndex 2024 Developer Contest for the Enhanced Unified Holographic Neural Network (EUHNN). Research spans neuromorphic computing, hardware-bound cryptography, holographic neural networks, and ASIC-based security systems.
REACH · CLARITY · DIRECTION
Grow the project’s reach, sharpen its message, and shape its strategic direction. Advisers, writers, designers, video producers, and community builders.
MATH · SCIENCE · ENGINEERING
Advance the mathematical, scientific, and engineering foundations. From conceptual ideas to machine-verified proofs and load-bearing code.
You may select designations from both tracks. Every designation receives the same MCR treatment: IPFS-pinned, timestamp-anchored, independently verifiable. CODE, PROOF, KERNEL, and BRIDGE designations carry additional machine-generated verification metadata because the work is machine-checkable — this reflects the nature of the work, not its relative importance.
