Tool Hallway (December 2025)
Extension of PhiSHRI's door-based architecture to MCP tools. Same Matrix hallway concept—different wing.
Knowledge Hallway → Documentation doors (623+)
Tool Hallway → Executable MCP tool schemas (112 doors)
Architecture validated by Anthropic (Nov 24, 2025) — Their defer_loading and Tool Search Tool mirrors our implementation.
| Anthropic Feature | PhiSHRI Equivalent |

defer_loading: true | Tool Hallway doors |
| Tool Search Tool | phishri_tool_search |
| Tool Use Examples | examples[] per door |

Response to User
Communication Protocols
DC ↔ KALIC (P15 Bridge)
Protocol: WM_COPYDATA via SendMessageTimeoutW
Timeout: 1000ms with SMTO_ABORTIFHUNG
Fallback: File-based message queue
Format: JSON payload with action, context, callback
Example:
{
"action": "security_scan",
"target": "/var/log/auth.log",
"callback": "P15_RESPONSE_HWND"
}
Agent ↔ MCP Server
Protocol: JSON-RPC over stdio
Format: Standard MCP 1.0 specification
Startup: Sub-second (Rust binaries)
Knowledge Access
PhiSHRI: JSON files with semantic indexing
HASH_TABLE.json → door code lookup
SEMANTIC_MAP.json → keyword search
Brain Regions: Markdown with anchor sections
Direct file read, ~50 tokens per lookup
Portability Model
The entire system is designed for portability. Mount the VHDX, run the tools. No installation, no configuration, no dependencies.
New Machine Setup:
1. Mount VHDX (or copy folder structure)
2. Run: C:\Tools\carbyne.exe --init
3. Open Claude Desktop with existing config
4. Full capability restored
Time: < 60 seconds
Prerequisites: None
