NEREID Console
NEREID is the AERIEL operations layer — the standing intelligence that fuses the AquaLink mesh, the breeding-station controls, and the fleet net into one picture, writes the watch briefings, and runs routine water-change cycles inside hard guardrails. This console is its operational face.
What NEREID Is
NEREID is not a commander and not a crew member. It is a coordination layer: it ingests every channel the League runs, correlates them faster than any watch-floor could, and presents the result as briefings, alarms, and bounded automation. It holds the standing picture so that the people who decide can decide on good information — and it executes the dull, repeatable cycles so the crews are free for the work that needs hands and judgement.
Capabilities
One Picture
Fuses AquaLink mesh chemistry, hatchery telemetry, fleet AIS, and dispatch feeds into a single coherent operational state, deconflicted and time-aligned.
Dark Vessels
Flags vessels that go dark over protected grids, models their likely tracks, and ranks contacts for the Watch to triage.
Bounded Automation
Runs routine water-change and dosing cycles at the breeding station within guardrails — never exceeding chemistry, volume, or rate limits without a human release.
Joining Dots
Correlates contacts, ownership shells, and prior incidents across the intel holdings to surface patterns a single analyst would miss.
Standing Watch
Continuously sweeps every channel for out-of-band readings, mesh dropouts, and behavioural anomalies, raising graded alarms to the command wall.
The Watch Read
Authors each watch's operational briefing from live state — headline, posture, risks, and recommended actions — for human review and sign-off.
Automation Guardrails
Every action NEREID can take is bound to an autonomy level and a human authority. Nothing on the right-hand column is optional.
| Action | Autonomy Level | Human Authority Required |
|---|---|---|
| Routine water-change & dosing (within band) | Autonomous | None; logged to NEREID, reviewable |
| Briefing & alarm generation | Autonomous | None; watch-lead acknowledges |
| Out-of-band dosing / volume override | Assisted | Station crew release (TIDEWATER-3) |
| AIS-gap escalation to Watch | Assisted | Dispatch coordinator (TIDEWATER-2) |
| Fleet repositioning / interdiction prep | Recommend only | Operations lead (TIDEWATER-2) |
| Access to RESTRICTED-tier holdings | Blocked | Cannot be performed by NEREID |
| Direct-Action sanction / escalation | Blocked | Admiralty order, signed at TIDEWATER-1 |
Sample Auto-Generated Briefing
Fleet posture is GUARDED. Ocean Health Index holds at 91.3% across monitored waters; mean seawater pH 8.07, dissolved oxygen 7.8 mg/L, both within nominal band. Hatchery spawn index steady at 57%; an automated water-change cycle completed on the Reef Conservatory loop at 03:14 inside all guardrails, no human release required.
Fleet readiness 94%. Two AIS gaps flagged overnight on the Pacific Drift grid — one resolved to a transiting cargo hull, one ranked amber and held for Watch triage; track modelled, no interdiction staged. Dossier correlation links the amber contact to a shell previously associated with grid-E trawling; recommend Dispatch open a contact file. Abyssal Holding integrity nominal at 98.7%; no RESTRICTED-tier activity.
Recommended actions: (1) Dispatch to triage the amber AIS contact within the watch. (2) Husbandry to confirm the Reef Conservatory post-change chemistry on the next round. (3) No Direct-Action option is prepared or required at this time; none would proceed without Admiralty order.
