avatara

Avatara (Sanskrit: अवतार — descent of the divine, manifestation of archetypes)

Divine archetype engine — theological and mythological personality mapping across traditions. Part of the AGNOS ecosystem.

What It Does

Maps divine and mythological beings across world traditions to composable personality configurations. Not religion simulation — psychometric archetype mapping backed by trait math. Each entity produces an ArchetypeProfile with trait weights, module emphasis, breath phase affinity, and growth direction.

Traditions

Quick Start

use avatara::Archetype;
use avatara::kabbalah::Sephira;

let tiphareth = Sephira::Tiphareth.profile();
println!("{}: {}", tiphareth.name, tiphareth.description);
// Tiphareth: Beauty — harmony and balance, the heart of the tree, solar center

// Breath phase maps to cosmic cycle position
assert_eq!(tiphareth.breath, avatara::BreathAffinity::LateExhale);

// Trait weights ready for bhava personality mapping
assert!(tiphareth.traits.warmth > 0.5);
assert!(tiphareth.traits.confidence > 0.5);

Design

All traditions map to the same ArchetypeProfile output:

• TraitWeights — 15 personality dimensions (0.0–1.0), maps 1:1 to bhava's PersonalityProfile
• ModuleEmphasis — which bhava modules this archetype amplifies (mood, energy, spirit, reasoning, etc.)
• BreathAffinity — position on the cosmic breath cycle (Unity → LateExhale → Unity)
• GrowthDirection — Differentiate, Integrate, Preserve, Transform, or Still

Archetypes are composable across traditions. A character can carry Kabbalistic Tiphareth + Hindu Vishnu + Greek Athena — reinforcing archetypes amplify, conflicting archetypes create productive internal tension.

Relationship to AGNOS

avatara (this) — divine archetype profiles
  → bhava — emotion/personality engine (post-v2.0 bridge)
  → joshua — NPC divine archetypes for games
  → agnosai — agent personalities with theological depth

avatara produces plain f64/enum outputs. It does not depend on bhava — bhava consumes avatara's output through a bridge module.
