Model Invocation

• CURIE: gmeow:ModelInvocation
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/ModelInvocation
• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/ai
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

One call to a generative model: the model agent (gmeow:usedModel), the prompts presented (gmeow:hasPrompt), and the sampling parameters. The provenance anchor of every generated claim — a claim node gmeow:wasGeneratedBy its invocation and gmeow:wasAttributedTo the model agent (both EXISTING provenance properties), so 'which model, under which prompt and parameters, at what time?' is answerable after the fact. Outputs are linked FROM the output via gmeow:wasGeneratedBy; no forward output property exists (P5).

Structure

Subclass of: gmeow:Activity

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:ModelInvocation as a specialized kind of gmeow:Activity. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to record one call to a generative model as the provenance anchor of its outputs — which model, prompts, and sampling parameters produced a claim; the gmeow:wasGeneratedBy target of every generated claim node (the ModelInvocation idiom).

Avoid when

• Avoid minting a forward output property on it (outputs link back via the existing gmeow:wasGeneratedBy, P5) and avoid using it for the model identity itself (that is gmeow:SoftwareAgent + gmeow:ModelCard); the invocation is the act, an occurrent, not the agent.

How to use

• Type the call gmeow:ModelInvocation (a gmeow:Activity, hence gmeow:Event), set gmeow:usedModel and one or more gmeow:hasPrompt, record sampling parameters, and carry its temporal reference frame on gmeow:eventTemporalFrame since it is an occurrent (P11); link outputs back via gmeow:wasGeneratedBy.

Examples

• ex:inv1 a gmeow:ModelInvocation; gmeow:usedModel ex:opus; gmeow:hasPrompt ex:sysPrompt; gmeow:eventTime "2026-06-15T09:00:00Z"^^xsd:dateTime.
