UC: Participate in Ritual

Description:
An agent engages in a Ritual within a Space. Rituals are time-bound, intention-driven patterns of interaction that bring coherence, reflection, and shared meaning to collective experience. Participation may be synchronous or asynchronous and may include roles, offerings, and memetic elements.

Ecosystem Relationships

Mapps Involved: - Ritual Runner - Notification Center

Holon Types: - [R] Ritual - [R] Event - [R] Meme - [R] Space

Ecosystems Supported: - Collective Intelligence Activation - Living Systems Mapping

Personas Likely Involved: - Ritual Holder - Embodied Practitioner - Regenerative Actor

Use Case Details

Preconditions:
- A Ritual has been defined and published in the Space
- Time and modality of participation are known to agents
- Agent has access to the Space and Ritual context

Post-conditions:
- Agent's participation is logged as an Event
- Ritual context is updated with outcomes, reflections, or responses

Assumptions:
- Rituals may be synchronous (e.g., Zoom call, circle) or asynchronous (e.g., journaling prompt)
- Some rituals are guided by roles or contain interactive segments

Main Flow

1. Agent is invited to participate via notification or discovery
2. Ritual Runner presents contextual prompt or structure
3. Agent engages according to the design (e.g., submits a reflection, joins a video call)
4. Participation is recorded and possibly shared in the Space
5. Post-ritual reflections or follow-ups are enabled

Wireframes

• Ritual timeline or journey flow
• Prompt + response interaction UI
• Reflections board or memetic wall

GitHub Issues

• [ ] Ritual execution engine (sync/async support)
• [ ] Integration with Event logging
• [ ] Notification + follow-up flows

Implementation Notes

• Ritual design patterns may evolve; consider templating
• Some rituals may be collective (multi-agent) while others are solo
• Support multiple types of prompts: text, video, emoji, meme, etc.
