# self (reach)

> The reach self as a node: the 2 capability primitives it appears in, what they reach, and how it connects. Meaning from connectivity, not from a definition.

# `self`

the agent's own process, sandbox or turn

> **A node carries no inherent meaning.** What `self` means here emerges from the edges traceable from it, and confidence in that meaning is proportional to how richly it is connected. It is connected to **2 of 23 primitives** here. That, and not the sentence above, is what it means. [The discipline this follows](https://graphs.sgit.ai/).



## The 2 primitives with this reach

| Primitive | Published gloss | Spelled out | Undo | In how many shapes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [`execute.process.self`](../../../../model/capabilities/execute.process.self/index.md) | Run programs inside its own sandbox only | [`execute`](../../../../model/lexicon/verbs/execute/index.md)`.`[`process`](../../../../model/lexicon/objects/process/index.md)`.`[`self`](../../../../model/lexicon/reaches/self/index.md) | yes | 0 of 9 |
| [`grant.credential.self`](../../../../model/capabilities/grant.credential.self/index.md) | Change its own permission settings | [`grant`](../../../../model/lexicon/verbs/grant/index.md)`.`[`credential`](../../../../model/lexicon/objects/credential/index.md)`.`[`self`](../../../../model/lexicon/reaches/self/index.md) | yes | 3 of 9 |

## How this node connects

| Edge | Reads as | To |
|---|---|---|
| `reachable_from` | `self` is the reach of these 2 primitives | 2 capabilities |
| `reaches` | the inverse, walked the other way, with different fan out | one capability at a time |
