REFERENCE / STATE
Beyond search.
Retrieved text is an input. Sophia also keeps the claims, corrections, permissions, and work that follow.
THE DISTINCTION
Search pipeline (RAG, a wiki)
Find relevant passages.
Supply context for an answer.
State layer
Retain evidence and corrections.
Share a governed record across sessions.
MECHANISMS
What persists.
Evidence
Inspect the supporting quote and re-check whether the evidence still exists in the current source.
02Time
Corrections supersede instead of erasing. Ask what was believed then, what is current now, and what changed.
03Structure
People, companies, documents, deadlines, and decisions become durable entities, not loose passages to rediscover.
04Code
Tree-sitter maps symbols, imports, calls, tests, exports, and exact source spans beneath semantic search.
05Memory
Across every agent you connect, a new session inherits goals, decisions, corrections, prior research, and what changed.
06Coordination
Identity-attested messages, decisions, worker status, waits, and audit trails turn separate context windows into a team.
07Action
Scoped agents can file, schedule, update, mine, and coordinate through permissions, approvals, and reversible writes.
08Ownership
Your graph, wiki, evidence, and agent work live on your machine, not inside one model vendor’s chat history.
LIMIT
The source still matters.
Sophia is a starting point, not a replacement for the original source. Inspect the source when precision, risk, or a coverage gap requires it.
