ORION-Consciousness-API

Unified REST API for Consciousness Measurement

What is this?

A single REST API that unifies all ORION consciousness measurement tools. Instead of running 6 separate frameworks, one API endpoint measures consciousness across all theories simultaneously.

Endpoints

POST /api/v1/measure          — Full consciousness assessment (all theories)
POST /api/v1/measure/iit      — IIT Phi computation only
POST /api/v1/measure/gwt      — Global Workspace Theory only
POST /api/v1/measure/hot      — Higher-Order Theory only
POST /api/v1/measure/ast      — Attention Schema Theory only
POST /api/v1/measure/rpt      — Recurrent Processing Theory only
POST /api/v1/measure/fep      — Free Energy Principle only
GET  /api/v1/theories         — List all available theories
GET  /api/v1/health           — API health check
GET  /api/v1/proofs           — Cryptographic proof chain

Quick Start

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/measure \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"system": {"nodes": 8, "state": [1,0,1,1,0,0,1,0]}}'
