# 🧠 SYNAPSE: The Cognitive Envelope Protocol > **Standardizing "Theory of Mind" for AI Agents.** > *RFC-001 Reference Implementation* --- ## 📂 Project Structure (The Map) ### 1. The Standard (Theory) - **[📜 RFC-001: The Cognitive Envelope](RFC-001_COGNITIVE_ENVELOPE.md)** - The core specification. - **[📖 Whitepaper: The End of Autistic Agents](WHITEPAPER_THE_END_OF_AUTISTIC_AGENTS.md)** - The philosophy behind the protocol. - **[🗺️ Roadmap](STANDARD_ROADMAP.md)** - The path to industry adoption. ### 2. The Code (Implementation) - **[🐍 synapse-core-py](./synapse-core-py/)** - The reference Python library. - *Status:* v0.1.0 (Stable & RFC Compliant). - **[🔌 synapse-mcp-server](./synapse-mcp-server/)** - The connector for Claude/Cursor. - *Status:* Working Prototype (FastMCP). ### 3. The Tools (Usage) - **[🛠️ Setup Guide](SETUP_GUIDE.md)** - How to install and configure everything. - **[🧪 Verification Script](./synapse-core-py/verify_synapse.py)** - Verify your installation. --- ## 🚀 Quick Start 1. **Install Core:** `pip install -e ./synapse-core-py` 2. **Run Server:** `./synapse-mcp-server/start_server.bat` 3. **Connect:** Configure Claude Desktop or Cursor to use the MCP server. --- *Generated by Karles Marín - 2026* # synapse-protocol # synapse-protocol
