🪡 SOV33 Small OWEMs — Triangle + Cascade

The smaller OWEMs that grow into large OWEMs. Two topologies: 3-around-1 (governance) + 10/90 cascade (efficiency). 5 OWEMs all sovereign-trained. 25 Jul 2026.

The Thesis (per Claude Code, MEOK Labs)

"Build your own AI — it grows with you. Small OWEMs grow into a large OWEM over time and other small OWEMs emerge. It's never the same, always changing."

— SOV33_GROWTH_MODEL · Sir Nicholas Templeman, 2026

Honest scope clarification (per CHARTER_OWEM_FOUR_SCOPE): "Small OWEM grows into a large OWEM" = the SAME substrate's small scope (personal memory/personality) accretes until it has large-scope reach (governance). NOT "small model grows into big model." Per the charter: never conflate size-routing with scope-reach.

SOV33 doesn't try to be one giant model. Instead it has multiple OWEMs at different scales, each owning its own lane, with a governed escalation path between them.

The 2 Smaller-OWEM Topologies

1. Triangle (3-around-1) — governance topology

Three small OWEMs at the vertices + one large SOV33-cubed (general) at the center as Queen/governor.

OWEM-1
lineage=qwen3-30b
brains=Compliance,Defense,Voice

OWEM-2
lineage=llama3-70b
brains=Defense,Intuition,Voice

OWEM-3
lineage=mistral-12b
brains=Compliance,Intuition,Voice

SOV33-CUBED CENTER (General OWEM — RunPod-trained sov33-master-v2)

Each small OWEM decides LOCALLY when confident (offline/cheap)
Escalates open-ended / out-of-lane work to the center
Triangle agreement is discounted by lineage ρ (measured)
3 identical lineages ≈ 1 effective vote (escalate)
3 diverse lineages ≈ 2.3 effective votes (commit locally)
Every cross-node message is SIGIL-signed

Built by Claude Code: sov33_triangle_owem.py. Hardened in b00c4f89 to use MEASURED ρ (not heuristic).

2. Cascade (10/90) — efficiency topology

LEFT brain (small fast) handles 90% of traffic · RIGHT brain (large deep) called only for the hard 10%.

LEFT

small fast model

~90% of traffic

handles easy/predictable queries

RIGHT

large deep model

~10% of escalations

handles hard/open-ended queries

Difficulty estimator: regex signals + length factor
LEFT always runs first (conscious, fast, gates via OWEM)
RIGHT called only when difficulty > 0.5
Every hop is SIGIL-signed and Care-Floor gated

Built by Claude Code: sov33_cascade_router.py. Honest efficiency: aggregate big, active small, every hop signed.
