A protocol for AI agent workspace state and effect management
reel reel is a protocol for the boundary between an AI agent's speculative work and the systems it does not own. Some attempts cross that boundary: a message is posted, a row is written, a payment is taken. Once an action has crossed, no later decision — including the decision to abandon the line of reasoning that produced it — can retract it. reel exists to make the boundary transactional, so that an action the system decides to discard is never performed in the first place.

reel reel is a protocol for the boundary between an AI agent's speculative work and the systems it does not own. An agent reasons by attempting things. Some attempts cross that boundary: a message is posted, a row is written, a payment is taken. Once an action has crossed, no later decision — including the decision to abandon the line of reasoning that produced it — can retract it. reel exists to make the boundary transactional, so that an action the system decides to discard is never performed in the first place. What it is reel defines six content-addressed types — Hash, Block, Ref, Delta, Capability, View — three verbs — fork, commit, abort — and three invariants: reachability, the silencing of discarded irreversible effects, and capability narrowing.
