- CAD000: Design Principles Codifies the non-negotiable axioms every other CAD inherits from — immutable values, bounded resources, CRDT-safe idempotence, security-first cryptography. This is the constitution: why Convex refuses the shortcuts (mutable state, unbounded ops, bespoke crypto) that trap other decentralised platforms.
- CAD014: Convex Name System Provides trusted mutable human-readable references (@convex.trust → the current authoritative actor) so ecosystem-wide upgrades happen without touching caller source. DNS-for-smart-contracts: contract addresses stop being the API surface, names do.
- CAD017: Peer Operations Sets the concrete hardware, network, and key-management bar for running a peer — 1000 CVM minimum stake, offline controller keys, commodity 8-core box. Deliberately keeps peer operation achievable by individuals, not just data centres.
- CAD020: Tokenomics Issues Convex Coins via a market-driven release curve rather than pre-mine, ICO, or airdrop — new supply prints only when economic demand pushes price above the curve, protecting earlier holders from dilution. Deliberately neutralises the pump-and-dump dynamics of Ethereum pre-mines and ICO-era launches.
- CAD022: Trust Monitors Composable on-chain subject-action-object authorisation modules based on the TCSEC B3 reference-monitor model — sandboxed, callable in query mode, reusable across contracts. Access control becomes a first-class shareable component instead of ad-hoc modifiers copied into every contract.
- CAD034: Curated Registry A generic on-chain registry pattern with CAD22 trust-monitor gating — one actor can host many registries for DAO memberships, verified token lists, accredited organisations. Lets ecosystems publish lists with controlled curation instead of every dApp shipping its own allow-list contract.
