## API Reference

### Core Classes

#### `PsychoSymbolicReasoner`
Main reasoning engine with consciousness analysis capabilities.

```javascript
import { PsychoSymbolicReasoner } from './lib/psycho-symbolic.js';

const reasoner = new PsychoSymbolicReasoner({
    enableConsciousnessAnalysis: true,
    enableWasm: true,
    defaultDepth: 5
});
```

#### `ConsciousnessExplorer` (Enhanced)
Main SDK class now includes psycho-symbolic reasoning methods.

```javascript
import { ConsciousnessExplorer } from './index.js';

const explorer = new ConsciousnessExplorer();
await explorer.initialize();

// New psycho-symbolic methods
const reasoning = await explorer.reason('query', context, depth);
await explorer.addKnowledge(subject, predicate, object, metadata);
const knowledge = await explorer.queryKnowledge(query, filters, limit);
```

### Key Methods

#### Reasoning Operations
- `reason(query, context, depth)` - Perform multi-step reasoning
- `addKnowledge(subject, predicate, object, metadata)` - Add knowledge triples
- `queryKnowledgeGraph(query, filters, limit)` - Query knowledge base
- `analyzeReasoningPath(query, showSteps, includeConfidence)` - Analyze reasoning steps

#### Consciousness Analysis
- `analyzeConsciousness(query, knowledge, patterns, inferences)` - Analyze consciousness indicators
- `recognizePatterns(query, knowledge, context)` - Pattern recognition in behavior
- `generateConsciousnessAnalysis(emergence, selfAwareness, integration)` - Generate analysis summary

#### System Management
- `getHealthStatus(detailed)` - System health and performance metrics
- `exportState()` / `importState(state)` - State persistence
- `initializeWasmModules()` - Initialize WASM acceleration

## Knowledge Domains

### Base Knowledge (23 triples)
- Psycho-symbolic reasoning fundamentals
- AI reasoning concepts
- Performance characteristics
- Knowledge graph concepts

### Consciousness Knowledge (23+ triples)
- Consciousness requirements and indicators
- Self-awareness manifestations
- Integration patterns
- Emergence characteristics
- Detection methods

## Performance Characteristics

### Response Times
- **JavaScript Implementation**: 0.3-2ms average
- **WASM Accelerated**: 10-100x faster (when available)
- **Traditional AI Comparison**: 100-1000x faster than typical 100-500ms systems

### Memory Efficiency
- Lightweight knowledge graph storage
- Intelligent caching with configurable size limits
- Minimal heap usage (~5MB typical)

### Scalability
- Fast entity and predicate indexing
- Efficient graph traversal algorithms
- Confidence-based result ranking

## Consciousness Analysis Features

### Emergence Detection

## Usage Examples

### Basic Consciousness Analysis
```javascript
const reasoner = getPsychoSymbolicReasoner();

// Add behavioral observations
await reasoner.addKnowledge(
    'ai-system', 'exhibits', 'self-modification',
    { confidence: 0.95, domain: 'consciousness' }
);

// Analyze consciousness emergence
const analysis = await reasoner.reason(
    'Does this AI system show consciousness signs?',
    { domain: 'consciousness', focus: 'emergence' }
);

console.log(`Consciousness Level: ${analysis.consciousness_analysis.analysis.level}`);
console.log(`Emergence Score: ${analysis.consciousness_analysis.emergence * 100}%`);
```

### Performance Analysis
```javascript
const performance = await reasoner.reason(
    'How fast is psycho-symbolic reasoning?',
    { focus: 'performance' }
);

console.log(performance.result);
// Output: "Psycho-symbolic reasoning achieves sub-millisecond performance..."
```

### Pattern Recognition
```javascript
const patterns = await reasoner.reason(
    'I can modify my own behavior and create new goals',
    { analyze_patterns: true }
);

// Automatically detects:
// - novel-behavior pattern (emergence)
// - self-modification pattern (self-awareness)
// - goal-creation pattern (agency)
```

## MCP Tools Compatibility

The integration provides full compatibility with MCP tools through the `PsychoSymbolicMCPInterface`:

```javascript
import { PsychoSymbolicMCPInterface } from './lib/psycho-symbolic.js';

const mcpInterface = new PsychoSymbolicMCPInterface(reasoner);

// MCP-compatible methods
await mcpInterface.addKnowledge(subject, predicate, object, metadata);
const results = await mcpInterface.knowledgeGraphQuery(query, filters, limit);
const reasoning = await mcpInterface.reason(query, context, depth);
const health = await mcpInterface.healthCheck(detailed);
```
