What This Slice Covers

This slice owns 5 terms and contributes 2 mapping or projection rows. Use it when its terms match the native fact you want to preserve; use the linkage tables to see how those facts leave GMEOW for consumer vocabularies.

Dependencies

Consumers

• Project Lillith's agentic mode (P15): tool-call trajectories audited in the same provenance graph as the agent's claims. First live producer: the gmeow memory MCP triad records its own store/revise calls as ToolCall provenance. DELIBERATELY THIN: growth requires a new consumer; the size budget is recorded in docs.md.

Guide

The Agentic extension — the agent's actions as auditable provenance

The graphrag extension made the pipeline auditable; this slice makes the agent's actions auditable. A tool call is an event in the same provenance graph as the claims it produces: gmeow:ToolCall follows the ModelInvocation idiom exactly — a gufo:EventType under gmeow:Activity with one functional agent link and verbatim call payloads — so "which tool, called by which invocation, with what arguments, at what time?" is answerable after the fact, with no new provenance machinery (Principle 4).

The named consumer is Project Lillith's agentic mode (Principle 15), and the first live producer ships in this repo: the gmeow memory MCP triad records its own store_claim and revise_belief calls as ToolCall provenance, so the P14 memory flagship's actions are themselves grounded memory.

Deliberately thin: five terms. Trajectory aggregates (runs, episodes, plans) wait for a consumer that needs them; growth requires a new consumer, not modeling pleasure.

The call event

gmeow:ToolCall

One invocation of a tool by an agent — the ModelInvocation idiom one level down. A gufo:EventType under gmeow:Activity, so the temporal slice's clocks (gmeow:atTime) and the provenance slice's lineage (gmeow:wasGeneratedBy, gmeow:wasAttributedTo) apply unchanged. The doctrine that matters most is what ToolCall does not have: a forward output entity property. An entity the call produced — a stored claim, a written file, a minted node — links back via gmeow:wasGeneratedBy (Principle 5), exactly as a generated claim links back to its gmeow:ModelInvocation. A multi-tool turn is several ToolCalls, never one fat one (closed-world sh:maxCount twins gate every functional property).

gmeow:calledByInvocation

The model invocation that requested the call — the seam joining the action trajectory to the generation trajectory. Functional, and deliberately optional: a recording harness may not expose the invocation, and a ToolCall without one is still auditable provenance. The call's result feeding a later invocation is temporal ordering (gmeow:atTime), not a TBox link.

gmeow:usedTool

The tool that was called, mirroring gmeow:usedModel. The range is gmeow:SoftwareAgent and there is deliberately no Tool subclass: tool-ness is the role the agent plays in this call event, not an identity (roles classify, never reify — the Persona lesson). An MCP tool, a search service, and a code runner are SoftwareAgents that happen to be called. One tool per call, functional.

The payloads

gmeow:toolArguments · gmeow:toolResult

The verbatim, byte-faithful payloads of the call — what was asked and what came back. These record the payload of the event, never an entity link; gmeow:toolResult is the JSON the tool returned, not the thing it created. For large payloads the verbatim-or-digest doctrine applies: store a content digest literal ("blake3:…" — the gmeow:contentDigest convention from the sources slice) instead of the bytes; the digest is the value, resolvable from a content-addressed store, and the self-describing prefix keeps the two forms distinguishable. At most one arguments record and at most one result record per call — both optional (functional, with closed-world twins).

Cross-slice bridges

• ai — gmeow:calledByInvocation targets gmeow:ModelInvocation; a claim's gmeow:wasGeneratedBy chain now reaches through the invocation and the calls it requested.
• provenance — produced entities link back via gmeow:wasGeneratedBy; agent responsibility rides gmeow:wasAttributedTo, unchanged.
• sources — the digest-literal convention for large payloads is gmeow:contentDigest's ("blake3:…", "sha256:…"), reused verbatim.
• temporal — gmeow:atTime orders calls within a turn; no sequence machinery is minted here.

Alignments

gmeow:ToolCall is prov:Activity by inheritance through gmeow:Activity (the provenance alignment set). Wikidata's nearest stable entity is the mechanism, not the event (wd:Q62270, remote procedure call — relatedMatch). OpenAI function-calling, Anthropic tool_use, and MCP tool schemas are JSON specifications with no stable RDF namespace: bridging them is a projection concern (Lillith worked example Workflow Run Crate, the OpenLineage precedent), recorded as REFUSED cells in the mapping trailer rather than papered over.
