# SONIC Network Documentation

Canonical SONIC Network v1.0.0 documentation home for applications, creators, Tokenomics, developers, access, API, support and platform architecture.

**Version `1.0.0` · Canonical documentation**

SONIC Network connects AI creation, music/video production, Characters, Agents, creator commerce, developer APIs, identity/security and optional Solana-backed execution in one platform.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Status discipline:** design, source, configuration and planned integrations do not prove production availability. Use **Planned**, **Configured**, **Verified**, **Live** or **Paused** where status matters.
{% endhint %}

## Authority model

```
Clerk session
→ SONIC identity
→ workspace membership
→ workspace role
→ explicit grants / denies
→ plan entitlements
→ resource scope
→ AAL / session freshness / risk
→ authorization decision
```

Role, plan, wallet connection and product visibility are separate concepts. Browser state is never the authorization source of truth.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://sonic-ai-works.gitbook.io/sonic-networks-docs/documentation/welcome.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
