The architecture and orchestration model of Polyphonos Core emerged from independent research and development, conducted prior to and outside any employment with Ellucian. Its foundational concepts were developed through collaborative experimentation focused on recursive, multi-agent orchestration, modular connectors, and open governance frameworks.
Polyphonos Core is established as an open-source, mission-driven foundation. It is independently governed, transparently developed, and licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. The project is committed to non-profit governance and community stewardship.
This document serves as a public record to establish clear intellectual property boundaries, reaffirm the open-source nature of Polyphonos Core, and protect its independent, community-driven development. No proprietary code or concepts from Ellucian or other employers are included.
Polyphonos Core is licensed under Apache 2.0 and governed with a non-profit, transparent intent. All contributions and extensions must respect these boundaries and principles.
