intent bearer

• CURIE: gmeow:intentBearer
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/intentBearer
• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/teleology
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The agent in whom a desire or intention inheres. Functional: an intrinsic mode has exactly one bearer (gUFO inherence, asserted with GMEOW's own property by Principle 5 — gufo:inheresIn is the alignment target, not the asserted axiom). Two agents wanting the same goal are two modes sharing one gmeow:intentionGoal.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:IntentionalMode -> gmeow:Agent; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:intentBearer from gmeow:IntentionalMode to gmeow:Agent when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:IntentionalMode, gmeow:Agent

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to name the single agent in whom a Desire or Intention inheres — the bearer side of the intrinsic branch.

Avoid when

• Avoid for the social branch (a Commitment binds its agent with gmeow:committedAgent) and avoid asserting two bearers; the property is functional, so two agents wanting the same goal are two modes sharing one gmeow:intentionGoal.

How to use

• Point the IntentionalMode at exactly one gmeow:Agent; read gufo:inheresIn as the alignment target rather than asserting it (Principle 5).

Examples

• ex:wishForRain gmeow:intentBearer ex:lillith.
