Symbolic computation with receipts.

The anti-hallucination layer for AI agents. A Hermetic programming language where programs are rituals, agents are decks, and every inference shows its work. Zero LLM calls for the symbolic path — pure computation, receipts visible.

 i. 
Proprietary runtime.
  

The TarotScript runtime is closed-source and hosted. Receipts,
          dignities, bundle validation, and tension math run where provenance
          is enforceable.

  
 
 ii. 
Distributable primitives.
  

Contracts ship as open @stackbilt/contracts. Primitive
          algorithms ship as standalone libraries. Decks plug into the hosted
          runtime as author-owned plug-ins.

  
 
 iii. 
MCP tools for agents.
  

Third-party AI agents reach the runtime through MCP —
tarot_cast, tarot_classify,
tarot_validate_bundle. Symbolic primitives, tool-shaped.
