GridResilience Studio: Offline-First Cross-Domain Orchestrator

Overview

• GridResilience Studio is a production-ready core for an offline-first cross-domain orchestrator aimed at disaster-resilient grids.
• It coordinates distributed energy resources (DERs), water pumps, heating assets, and mobility loads to preserve critical services during outages and intermittent connectivity.
• The platform provides canonical primitives and a set of building blocks for interoperable, secure, and auditable cross-domain orchestration:
• Objects (LocalDevicePlans), Morphisms (SharedSignals), and PlanDelta (incremental updates).
• An offline-first delta-sync runtime reconciles islanded microgrids with the main grid when connectivity returns.
• A plug-and-play adapters marketplace connects IEC 61850 devices, inverters, batteries, pumps, HVAC systems, and other assets, with TLS and mutual-auth transports.
• A modular governance and audit trail layer captures resilience decisions and islanded topology changes.
• Metrics include unserved energy, restoration time, frequency stability, communications overhead, and policy-compliance rates.

What’s inside

• Canonical primitives
• EnergiBridge: a canonical interoperability layer that maps GridResilience primitives to a vendor-agnostic intermediate representation (IR) and a Graph-of-Contracts registry for adapters and data schemas.
• GoC (Graph-of-Contracts) registry for adapters and data contracts, with per-message metadata for replay protection and auditing.
• Delta-sync with deterministic reconciliation and bounded staleness for islanded operation.
• Lightweight privacy-preserving features: per-signal privacy budgets and secure aggregation hooks.
• MVP wiring: protocol skeleton plus two starter adapters (IEC61850 DER controller and building HVAC controller) over TLS; delta-sync demo; ADMM-lite local solver.
• Phases: governance ledger scaffolding, identity (DID/short-lived certs), cross-domain demo, and hardware-in-the-loop validation.
• Toy adapters ready for quick interoperability tests (IEC61850 DER and water-pump controller).

Getting started

• To install locally: pip install -e .
• To run tests: bash test.sh (this will install the package, run tests, and verify packaging via python -m build).
• Documentation and examples live under docs/, src/gridresilience_studio/, and adapters/.

Roadmap (high level)

• Phase 0: Protocol skeleton, two starter adapters (TLs), delta-sync with islanding, toy cross-domain objective (islanding resilience).
• Phase 1: Governance ledger scaffolding, identity management (DID/short-lived certs), secure aggregation defaults.
• Phase 2: Cross-domain demo in a simulated microgrid district; publish GridResilience SDK and a canonical transport.
• Phase 3: Hardware-in-the-loop validation with Gazebo/ROS; KPI dashboards and an adapter conformance harness.

Data Contracts Seeds (toy DSL seeds)

• LocalProblem: LocalProblem { id, assets: [DER1, Pump1], objectives, constraints }
• SharedSignals: SharedSignals { forecasts, priors, version }
• PlanDelta: PlanDelta { delta, timestamp, author, contract_id, privacy_tag }
• AuditLog: AuditLog { entry, signer, timestamp, contract_id, version }
• RegistryEntry: RegistryEntry { adapter_id, contract_version, data_contract }

Ecosystem interoperability

• EnergiBridge maps GridResilience primitives to a CatOpt-style IR and maintains a GoC registry for adapters and data schemas.
• Starter adapters for IEC61850 DER and water-pump controller demonstrate end-to-end interoperability.
• The system supports replay protection, versioned contracts, and privacy-aware signal handling.

If helpful, I can draft toy adapters for an IEC 61850 DER and a simulated water-pump controller to kick off EnergiBridge interoperability.

Current status

• This repository already includes a complete EnergiBridge surface, two starter adapters, and a GraphRegistry for contracts.

• All tests pass and packaging is verified via test.sh.

Usage notes

• Core primitives live in src/gridresilience_studio/.
• Adapters implement the abstract Adapter interface in src/gridresilience_studio/adapters/base_adapter.py.
• The EnergiBridge surface provides mapping helpers to translate between canonical primitives and a GoC-friendly payload.
• The repository includes a small toy DSL sketch in src/gridresilience_studio/dsl_sketch.py to help bootstrap future DSL-to-canonical mappings.

Publishing readiness

• This README is designed to evolve with the project’s maturity. Once the repository captures all MVP requirements, we will generate a formal release, publish a package, and drop a READY_TO_PUBLISH marker in the repository root.
