Dual-Layer System: Complete Usage Guide
Date: Sat Jun 13 2026
Status: ✅ Production Ready
Dashboard: http://localhost:8000/glyphs/index.html
🎯 What is the Dual-Layer System?
The dual-layer system bridges symbolic cognition (glyphs, superpowers, resonance) with computational execution (FastAPI, Pinokio models, VRAM management).
Architecture
User Intent → Symbolic Layer → Computational Layer → Response
(Glyphs) (Models/VRAM)
- Glyphs determine intent, resonance, power boost
- Models execute with glyph-guided constraints/enhancements
- VRAM manager protects 8GB GTX1080 from crashes
🚀 Quick Start
1. Start Server
python3 /home/dave/server.py
2. Access Dashboard
Open in browser: http://localhost:8000/glyphs/index.html
3. Test Symbolic Endpoints
# Check status
curl http://localhost:8000/api/symbolic/status
# Activate glyph
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/symbolic/activate \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"intent": "I need primordial authority", "request_type": "chat"}'

💬 Chat with Glyph Activation
Basic Chat (No Glyph)
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/chat \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "llama-3.5-35b",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}],
"temperature": 0.7
}'
Chat with Glyph Activation
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/chat \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"model": "llama-3.5-35b",
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Help me write a poem"}],
"glyph_activation": {
"intent": "I need creative inspiration",
"request_type": "chat"
}
}'
What happens:
- Glyph activated based on intent (e.g.,
star_bloom_creativity) - Superpowers assigned (19 powers)
- Power boost calculated (5.2x)
- Chat enhanced with creativity constraints/enhancements
- Response includes glyph metadata
🎨 Image Generation with Glyph
Basic Image Generation
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/generate-image \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"prompt": "a cat sitting on a chair"}'
Image with Glyph Activation
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/generate-image \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"prompt": "a mystical forest with glowing trees",
"glyph_activation": {
"intent": "I need maximum creativity",
"request_type": "image"
}
}'
Glyph routing:
- Intent →
star_bloom_creativitytype - Model:
forge(image generation) - Enhancements: bloomflare_engine, novelty_boost, pattern_synthesis
- Guidance scale boosted by resonance

🧪 Python API Usage
Activate Glyph Programmatically
from superdave.dual_layer.symbolic_engine import get_symbolic_engine
engine = get_symbolic_engine()
# Activate glyph
result = engine.activate_from_intent(
user_intent="I need creative help",
request_type="chat"
)
if result:
print(f"Activated: {result.glyph_id}")
print(f"Type: {result.specialized_type}")
print(f"Model: {result.model}")
print(f"Power Boost: {result.power_boost}x")
print(f"Resonance: {result.resonance_score}")
Check System Status
from superdave.dual_layer import get_symbolic_engine
engine = get_symbolic_engine()
status = engine.get_status()
print(f"Superpowers: {status['superpowers_total']}")
print(f"Glyphs: {status['glyphs_cached']}")
print(f"Active: {status['active_glyphs']}")
print(f"VRAM: {status['vram_usage_gb']}GB")
Use Glyph-Enhanced Chat
from superdave.glyph_model_integration import (
GlyphExecutionContext, execute_with_glyph, prepare_chat_with_glyph
)
# Create glyph context
glyph_context = GlyphExecutionContext(
glyph_id="G001",
specialized_type="aether_node",
power_boost=387.95,
resonance_score=100.0,
superpower_ids=list(range(1, 153)),
model="llama",
priority=10.0,
constraints=[],
enhancements=["universal_override", "primordial_resonance"]
)
# Prepare chat with glyph
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}]
chat_params = prepare_chat_with_glyph(glyph_context, messages)
# Execute with glyph enhancements
result = execute_with_glyph(
glyph_context,
chat_function,
**chat_params
)
💾 VRAM Management
VRAM Limits
| Threshold | Value | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Warning | 6.5GB (81%) | Log warning |
| Critical | 7.5GB (93%) | Stop activations |
| Maximum | 8.0GB (100%) | System limit |
VRAM Budgets by Type
| Type | Budget | Notes |
|---|---|---|
aether_node |
7.5GB | Maximum authority |
monument_grade |
7.0GB | High but monitored |
star_bloom |
6.0GB | Image generation |
orbital_thread |
5.0GB | Multi-node |
twin_vector |
4.5GB | Multi-persona |
mirror_weave |
4.0GB | Reasoning |
solar_veil |
3.5GB | Memory |
frost_steel |
3.0GB | Safety |
frost_circuit |
3.0GB | Logic |
Critical Rule
⚠️ NEVER run Forge + Janus simultaneously (8GB crash risk)
The VRAM manager enforces this with a mutex lock.

🔧 Troubleshooting
Glyph Activation Fails
Error: "VRAM unavailable"
Solution:
- Check VRAM status:
/api/symbolic/status - Deactivate other glyphs:
/api/symbolic/deactivate - Wait for VRAM to free up
Server Won't Start
Error: Import errors
Solution:
# Check imports
python3 -c "from superdave.dual_layer import get_symbolic_engine"
# Fix if needed
export PYTHONPATH=/home/dave:$PYTHONPATH
Dashboard Not Loading
Solution:
- Verify dashboard mounted: check server logs
- Access: http://localhost:8000/glyphs/index.html
- Check file exists:
/home/dave/superdave/glyph_dashboard/index.html
