Published Specifications

RFC-PSDP-0001 — Plastic Spoons Detection Protocol (PSDP)

Defines the core phrase-based signaling protocol. This is the foundational Plastic Spoons document and establishes how the phrase is used to identify low-value, disposable online commentary without escalating the surrounding conversation.

Canonical response: Plastic Spoons
Extended response: Plastic Spoons Detected

RFC-PSDP-0002 — Plastic Spoons Symbol Encoding (PSSE)

Defines the visual encoding of Plastic Spoons, including the warning triangle, spoon-based exclamation mark, and basic rules for symbol usage across stickers, posters, graphics, and Animated Detection Objects.

Primary function: visual signaling.
Canonical symbol: warning triangle + spoon glyph
Typical payload: ⚠ Plastic Spoons Detected

/rfc/0002/index.html

RFC-PSDP-INDEX — Plastic Spoons RFC Index

Provides a central listing of Plastic Spoons protocol documents in the style of an RFC index. This document exists so that the protocol family can be navigated, cited, and expanded as additional Plastic Spoons standards emerge.

Primary function: navigation and reference.
Usage: entry point for the Plastic Spoons standards family.

Internet-Draft / Proposed Specifications

draft-psdp-reaction-objects-00 — Plastic Spoons Reaction Object Format

Proposed future document defining standard GIF classes, reaction payloads, loop recommendations, and naming conventions for Plastic Spoons reaction media used in social platforms and messaging environments.

Expected scope: GIF objects, looping behavior, reaction phrases, short-form visual signaling.
draft-psdp-warning-deployment-00 — Plastic Spoons Warning Sign Deployment

Proposed future document covering practical deployment of the Plastic Spoons warning system across posters, mugs, stickers, and physical spaces where disposable commentary is likely to occur.
