VLP Core: Composable Command Language for AI Agents

VLP (Vulgar Latin Protocol) is a 16-word command language — 12 commands, 5 modifiers, 1 noun — that replaces verbose repeated instructions with composable single-word commands.

"para" (~200 tokens → 1). "signa" (~300 tokens → 1). Modifiers stack in any order: "para auth contra [XSS] finis [SOC2] norma" compresses a full paragraph of intent into one line. Directs work easily towards complex tasks or fast iteration.

For agents: measurable token reduction. 20,000-50,000 tokens saved per day at 10 sessions. 10+ composable modifier pairs with unlimited stacking. Machine-readable manifest included.

For humans: stop writing paragraphs to get work done. 16 words that match how you already think. The problem (contra), the goal (finis), the standard (norma), the scope (insuper). If you can write a Jira query, you can write VLP.
