73 SEM entity templates across 7 categories. Every component has sensors, affordances, and failure modes that drive Maxim's bio-cognitive systems during simulation. Expand the library with the Asset Foundry or Auto-Curation.
The library is searchable programmatically via ComponentIndex — a two-layer lookup that finds components by meaning, not just by name:
"old iron door" → environments/rusty_gateUsed by the Imagination system to check whether a percept entity already has a component before designing a new one, and by Auto-Curation for deduplication. Thread-safe (RLock), persists via .npy + .json sidecar (no pickle).

Full SEM model of the desktop humanoid head from Pollen Robotics — the robot Maxim's embodiment journey started with.

Independent of the live hardware: works against the simulated controller too.
