Concept Dossier · AuceCommand Universe
A.U.C.E. Engine
The complete repository blueprint for the Autonomous Universal Creation Engine — the async Python core, event bus, cache, JWT-secured API, OpenTelemetry observability, and Kubernetes topology that powers the AuceCommand universe.

Project scaffolding · build system, dependencies, tooling config.
auce/core
Domain core · engine orchestration and service composition.
auce/models
SQLAlchemy ORM models · async session (asyncpg driver).
auce/kafka
aiokafka producer/consumer · the event bus for domain events.
auce/redis
redis.asyncio client · cache layer + pub/sub channels.
auce/api
FastAPI routes · the REST surface and request handling.
auce/security
JWT auth · OAuth2 password flow, token issue and verify.
auce/observability
OpenTelemetry tracing · middleware, spans, OTLP exporter.
deploy/
Kubernetes Deployment + Service · OTel collector config.
Request Data Flow
01
Ingress— Request hits a FastAPI route on the /api surface.
↓02
Authenticate— auce/security verifies the JWT and resolves the caller.
↓03
Session— An async SQLAlchemy session opens against the ORM.
↓04
Cache— auce/redis serves a hot read before touching the database.
↓05
Event— auce/kafka publishes the domain event onto the bus.
↓06
Observe— OpenTelemetry records a span for the whole transaction.
↓07
Respond— The route returns a Pydantic model; the span closes.

Status: A concept dossier and repository blueprint — the A.U.C.E. Engine spec as shared in the Covert23 design notes. The live AuceCommand console in this app is a separate front-end; this page documents the backend architecture, not a deployed production service.
