Chyrper Glossary

A structured platform for communities, claims, analysis, and governance across distinct participation layers.

Its model separates social expression, structured debate, long-form analysis, and moderation authority.

The personal expression layer for lightweight public thinking and profile activity.

Identity content does not enter Arena ranking or direct IH combat calculations.

A continuity feed layer that surfaces highlighted users' identity content in chronological order.

It is designed for visibility and continuity, not virality or ranking amplification.

The structured opposition layer where Claims and Counters compete directly.

Arena outcomes are finite and preserved as part of the platform record.

The long-form reasoning layer for deeper explanation and knowledge expansion.

It includes durable analysis surfaces and supports interpretation beyond short-form contest formats.

The authority layer that handles moderation, scope enforcement, archival decisions, and structural integrity.

Governance actions are recorded as system events rather than social interactions.

The core contest environment where claims are evaluated under direct opposition.

A structured assertion submitted for evaluation within a specific community jurisdiction.

A claim type that accepts direct external Counters.

It is explicitly open to structured challenge during its active phase.

A claim type that includes the author's own built-in counterbalance and does not accept external Counters.

A direct opposition response submitted against an Open Claim.

Counters challenge a claim; they do not open recursive counter chains.

The act of submitting a claim into formal structured evaluation.

Once submitted, the claim participates in Arena visibility, ranking pressure, and lifecycle rules.

An archived claim preserved for long-term relevance and discovery.

It remains read-only while continuing to contribute to historical and analytical context.

A topic-scoped jurisdiction where participation, moderation, and evaluation rules are applied.

A community visible to everyone and open to broad discovery under its published rules.

A community that appears in discovery but controls participation through approval, invitation, or membership settings.

A community excluded from public discovery and accessible only through direct access paths.

A community model where publishing and visibility are primarily guided by creator or owner direction.

A presentation format that emphasizes curated publishing from a community's designated publishers.

A lightweight identity-layer post intended for continuity and public thought sharing.

A social post format for reflective analysis, interpretation, or perspective outside Arena combat.

A social post format used to state an expected future outcome without creating an Arena claim.

A social prompt format that frames a debatable question or direction before formal claim submission.

A user-level visibility action that determines whose social posts appear in your feed.

Highlighting does not boost Arena ranking, IH score, or claim outcomes.

The platform's direct conversation surface for private or small-group communication.

It is conversational infrastructure and is separate from Arena contest objects.

Structured participation modules used by communities to drive recurring learning and engagement.

A short recurring activity prompt designed for routine participation cadence.

An activity format that checks knowledge or understanding through structured questions.

A targeted question or instruction used to trigger a focused user response.

An applied activity where users respond to a specific hypothetical or practical situation.

A step-based activity or reference format designed to teach repeatable methods.

A personal view of a user's assigned, active, or completed platform activities.

The top-level authority responsible for a community's scope, rules, roles, and governance direction.

A delegated governance role that enforces community rules and maintains participation quality.

A platform-level authority role that can perform administrative actions beyond a single community.

The record of moderation and governance actions taken within platform systems.

It preserves accountability and context for structural decisions.

The explicit participation standards that define acceptable conduct and content boundaries in a community.

The topical and functional boundary that determines what belongs in a community's jurisdiction.

The platform credibility signal based on structured participation behavior and evaluation outcomes.

IH reflects credibility within Chyrper systems; it is not a universal truth metric.

A community-specific IH measure that reflects credibility performance within that community context.

A placeholder status indicating that a scoring component or policy detail is reserved for a future defined release.

A negative scoring effect applied when qualifying content is removed after participation.

It discourages strategic deletion and helps preserve accountability in the credibility system.
