  ## About Me

  I am a student focused on AI systems architecture, robotics, and protocol design.\
  My interest lies in building foundational infrastructure for intelligent systems —
  not just applications.

  CXP began as a question:

  **How can autonomous systems share context safely, progressively, and efficiently — without flooding each other?**

  Instead of building another application, I designed a protocol.

  ***

  ## What Makes CXP Different

  * Progressive context disclosure (Preview → Request → Expand)
  * Budget-aware exchange (token, latency, size constraints)
  * Policy-bound sharing (purpose + TTL)
  * Provenance attached to every slice
  * Transport-neutral architecture
  * Robot-compatible context mapping

  CXP separates reasoning from memory transport and defines a structured exchange layer for autonomous systems.

  ## Project Roadmap

  <CardGroup cols={3}>
    <Card title="Formal Specification">
      Define message types, version negotiation, error model, and conformance guarantees.
    </Card>

    <Card title="Reference Implementation">
      A minimal CXP client/server pair demonstrating progressive expansion and policy enforcement.
    </Card>

    <Card title="Interactive Demo">
      A polished web-based Inspector that visualizes real-time context exchange and governance.
    </Card>
  </CardGroup>

  ## Vision

  My long-term goal is to design core infrastructure for intelligent systems —
  building protocols and architectures that scale safely across agents, tools,
  and embodied robotics.

  CXP is the first step in that direction.
