Composability
Composability is the ability to combine on-chain building blocks—protocols, contracts, and assets—into systems that execute deterministically through smart contract rules.
AlphaPing applies composability selectively, prioritizing enforceability, isolation, and verifiable accounting over unnecessary complexity.
Dependencies as First-Class Risk
Composed systems introduce dependency chains. The relevant question is how failures propagate across dependencies and whether those dependencies are explicitly bounded.
AlphaPing treats integrations as constraints: dependencies are defined, their boundaries are specified in mandates, and their effects are made observable through on-chain state.
Deterministic Execution Requirements
Composability is operational only when execution remains deterministic under protocol mechanics. Settlement behavior, liquidation rules, and accounting outcomes must remain consistent and reviewable.
AlphaPing does not rely on discretionary intervention to manage composed systems. Enforcement follows mandate constraints and protocol logic.
Isolation and Reviewability
Systems must remain reviewable at the unit level. Allocators should be able to reason about exposure and constraints without reliance on narrative or opaque reporting.
Isolation reduces cross-contamination of risk by ensuring mandates remain bounded, with outcomes reflected through on-chain execution.
Operational Continuity
Under normal and stressed conditions, composed execution continues according to protocol mechanics and network confirmation. There is no separate operational mode that overrides outcomes.
Where dependencies change, governance and change control must remain explicit and consistent with mandate constraints.
What This Section Does Not Do
Composability is not a justification for complexity. Each dependency introduces failure modes that must be deliberate and bounded.
It does not prevent protocol failures, remove execution risk, or guarantee outcomes, and it does not replace diligence on dependency surfaces.
