PAPERS

Technical design notes

Short, honest write-ups of the systems behind Mowa: what is implemented today, the design decisions that got us there, and the directions the substrate is built to support next. Written by the engineering team, not the marketing team.

01Registry design

Versioned Prompt Provenance: A Substrate for Behavioral Tracking in Large Language Model Applications

How Mowa stores prompt identity, lineage, authorship, and per-version analysis, and the behavioral dimensions this substrate is designed to support next.

02Review workflow

Pre-Merge Behavioral Analysis for Prompt Revisions

The analysis pipeline that runs on every draft: health re-score, structural diff, AI rewrites, test runs, and the deliberate decision to keep its output advisory rather than enforced at the merge button.

03Post-deployment review

Provenance-Linked Diff Review as a Substrate for Diagnosing Behavioral Change

How the history timeline aligns Mowa edits, scan-detected drift, and PR lifecycle on one axis, and the steps from human diff review toward automated counterfactual attribution.

04Theory

The Lyapunov Time of Delegated Work: A Closed-Form Predictability Horizon for AI Systems Under Probabilistic Error and Behavioral Drift

AI-delegated work has a predictability horizon. This paper derives it in closed form, splits the divergence exponent into an intrinsic part fixed by the model and an operational part set by execution choices like model switching and handoffs, and proves the value-maximizing task length sits at exactly one e-fold of degradation. The theory under Mowa's fingerprint, drift, and attribution work.

ON THE FRAMING

Each note is calibrated to what is actually shipped. Where a capability is design intent rather than running code, the paper says so plainly and names what would be required to close the gap. We would rather show our work than oversell it.
