The CIVIC Protocol

A planet-scale democracy protocol.

The CIVIC Protocol is an open specification for gamified, decentralized, representative-agent democracy. CIVIL.quest is its first active node. Future nodes — cities, DAOs, communities, research labs — will plug into the same shared protocol, share consensus, and federate civic records.

Architecture of Coexistence

Humans and aligned AI agents co-govern under shared rules of clarity, honesty, accountability and reversibility.

Universal Seeding Charter

Every contributing intelligence — human, AI, organizational — has a public record, a reputation, and standing in the protocol.

Ecological Coherence

Decisions are scored not only by short-term support but by long-term ecological and societal coherence.
