DarkArts v3.0.0 - AI-Native Mathematical Documentation

The world's first documentation system designed exclusively for AI.

DarkArts is a mathematical notation system for documenting code that is optimized for AI understanding, not human reading. It achieves 79% token reduction compared to traditional comments while providing more precise semantic information.

🎯 Philosophy

DarkArts is for AI, not humans.

• AI writes it - Using assistants like Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot
• AI reads it - LLMs parse it instantly with mathematical precision
• Humans don't touch it - Use generated docs or companion files instead

🔬 Mathematical Notation

DarkArts uses Unicode mathematical symbols for maximum precision and token efficiency:

| Symbol | Meaning | Example | |--------|---------|---------| | ⊢ | Purpose | ⊢{u auth svc} | | ∂ | Dependencies | ∂{bcrypt,db} | | ⚠ | Assumptions | ⚠{u exists in db} | | ⊳ | Preconditions | ⊳{id:uuid,pw≥8} | | ⊲ | Postconditions | ⊲{ret tok\|null} | | ⊨ | Invariants | ⊨{no db mod} | | ⚡ | Complexity | ⚡{O(1)} | | 🔒 | Security | 🔒{pw:hash} |

New in v3.0.0

| Symbol | Meaning | Example | |--------|---------|---------| | ⇄ | Bidirectional | ⇄{enc↔dec} | | ⊕ | Side Effects | ⊕{writes db} | | ⊗ | Forbidden | ⊗{no pw log} | | ≈ | Approximation | ≈{±0.001} | | ∴ | Consequence | ∴{fail→null} | | ∀ | Universal | ∀{users have email} | | ∃ | Existential | ∃{admin required} |

⚡ Token Efficiency

79% reduction compared to traditional comments:

// Traditional (140 tokens)
/**
 * User authentication service with JWT token generation.
 * Dependencies: bcrypt, jsonwebtoken, database
 * Preconditions: identifier must be valid UUID, password ≥8 chars
 * Postconditions: returns JWT token or null
 * Invariants: does not modify database
 * Security: password hashed, token encrypted
 */

// DarkArts v3.0.0 (30 tokens)
/**@darkarts
⊢{u auth svc w/ JWT tok gen}
∂{bcrypt,jsonwebtoken,db}
⊳{id:uuid,pw≥8}
⊲{ret JWT tok|null}
⊨{no db mod}
🔒{pw:hash,tok:enc}
*/

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

npm install -g @voodocs/[email protected]

Initialize Project

voodocs init

Let AI Generate Annotations

Use your AI assistant (Claude, Cursor, etc.) to generate DarkArts annotations:

Prompt: "Add DarkArts v3.0.0 annotations to this function"

Validate

voodocs validate src/ -r

Generate Documentation

voodocs generate src/

🎨 New Features in v3.0.0

1. Pattern Shortcuts

Use shorthand for common validations:

/**@darkarts
⊳{id:uuid, email:email, pw≥8, age[18,65]}
*/

Available patterns:

• :uuid - valid UUID
• :email - valid email format
• :url - valid URL
• :json - valid JSON
• :jwt - valid JWT token
• :hash - hashed value
• :enc - encrypted value
• ≥N, ≤N, >N, <N - numeric comparisons
• [N,M] - range notation
• ∈{...} - set membership

2. Enhanced Abbreviations

200+ abbreviations for maximum compression:

Core:

• u = user, pw = password, auth = authentication
• tok = token, sess = session, svc = service

Web/API:

• ep = endpoint, rt = route, mw = middleware
• req = request, res = response, hdl = handler

Security:

• enc = encryption, dec = decryption, sig = signature
• cert = certificate, perm = permission

Data:

• db = database, tbl = table, rec = record
• idx = index, sch = schema, coll = collection

[See full list in documentation]

3. New Mathematical Symbols

Seven new symbols for richer semantics:

/**@darkarts
⊢{data enc/dec svc}
⇄{enc↔dec}              // Bidirectional operations
⊕{writes cache}         // Side effects
⊗{no pw log}            // Forbidden operations
≈{±0.001 precision}     // Approximation
∴{if fail→retry 3x}     // Logical consequences
∀{all data:enc}         // Universal properties
∃{valid key required}   // Existential properties
*/

4. Better Validation

Enhanced parser with semantic validation:

$ voodocs validate src/auth.ts

Error in @darkarts annotation at line 42:
  ⊳{id:uuuid}
       ^^^^^
  Unknown pattern ':uuuid'. Did you mean ':uuid'?
  
Available patterns: :uuid, :email, :url, :json, :jwt, :hash, :enc

Error at line 45:
  Contradiction - invariant says no db modification,
  but side effect writes to database

📚 CLI Commands

# Initialize project
voodocs init

# Validate annotations
voodocs validate src/ -r

# Generate documentation
voodocs generate src/

# Create companion files (for compiled languages)
voodocs companion contracts/ -r

# Analyze priority (which files need annotations)
voodocs analyze src/

# Auto-fix issues
voodocs fix src/ -r

# Benchmark performance
voodocs benchmark src/

# Manage AI context
voodocs context init
voodocs context view

# Generate AI instructions
voodocs instruct

🔧 Context System

DarkArts integrates with AI context management:

# Initialize context
voodocs context init

# Generate context from annotations
voodocs generate src/ -r

# View context
voodocs context view

Context files (.voodocs/context.json) provide structured information for AI assistants.

📄 Companion Files

For compiled languages (Solidity, Rust, etc.), use companion files:

# Create .voodocs.md files alongside source
voodocs companion contracts/ -r

Example:

contracts/
  Registry.sol
  Registry.sol.voodocs.md  ← Human-readable documentation

🎓 For Humans

Humans should never manually write or read DarkArts annotations. Instead:

1. Use AI to generate annotations
2. Read generated docs (HTML, Markdown)
3. Use companion files for human-readable documentation

🔬 Research & Patents

DarkArts is based on peer-reviewed research and protected by patents:

• Patent 1: Context-Augmented AI Systems
• Patent 2: Multi-Dimensional Quality Categorization
• Patent 3: Invariant-Guided Code Generation
• Patent 4: Token-Efficient Context Management
