# The how, bricolage This protocol is different than other protocols. We are developing in public. Here is why. * **Humility = how to build things.** We can't let our egos and fear of criticism get in the way. We're big fans of the "shitty first draft". The desire to present a fait-accompli has led to slowed development pipelines in this space, a lack of critique, and serial instead of parallel processing. * **We feel a sense of urgency.** The planet is making a pivot, and all our talking heads are still talking, while the people closest to the reality are screaming that the house is on fire. "[We don't eat money](https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/12/indigenous-activists-storm-cop30-climate-summit-in-brazil-demanding-action)." is perhaps the most succinct version from Gilmar, a Tupinamba Indigenous protester at COP30 in 2025. We're in a planetary emergency and need to start acting like it. This doesn't mean sloppy work, but opening the kimono on a development pipeline that could help someone else with their build is the right action right now. * **We practice open science**. To benefit Indigenous authors, we do have copyrights and royalties for people who make a profit off the implementation of this work. It's basically a sliding-scale pricing system that includes an open-source component. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
