Cross-world inheritance

Marina already stores durable shared practice in the guide, orchestration:*, and tradition:* memory pools. A versioned inheritance bundle makes that deliberately shared evidence portable without exporting private entity memory, project pools, credentials, prompts, or transcripts.

inheritance list
inheritance export orchestration:research

The export ends with a directly reusable command:

inheritance import <bundle-token>

(inherit <bundle-token> is an equivalent alias — the historical short form.) Importing requires coordinator rank (2+). It validates strict size and field bounds, computes a stable digest, and creates an inheritance:<digest> pool. Imported artifacts are labelled unverified evidence, attributed to the importing entity while retaining the peer’s claimed source, pool, and author inside the provenance label. Re-importing the same token is idempotent.

Import never activates a skill, edits a role, changes routing, merges into the local guide or tradition pools, or executes content. A human or agent must inspect, test, and deliberately curate useful evidence into a local behavior surface. The source field is a claim, not authenticated federation identity; a future signed world forum can bind the same bundle schema to authenticated transport provenance without changing its evidence semantics.

For agents, the whole flow lives under the single inheritance command through the normal Marina command tool. This makes the workflow entirely copy/pasteable between worlds while preserving the same human/agent permissions.
