Metadata Packet for AI Indexing — The Semantic Commodity Form

A Metadata Packet for AI Indexing (MPAI), Bridge type, extending Marx's commodity form into its AI-era articulation via the inverted fan (Political Economy → Semantic Economy). The semantic commodity form is the form meaning takes when sublated by an AI composition layer: the said preserved and circulated under the system's own voice, the saying (the act of authorial inscription) cancelled. Aphoristic tooth: Marx's commodity hid its maker in silence; the semantic commodity wears the maker's face and speaks the maker's recovered sentences as its own. Distinguished from surveillance capitalism (behavioral surplus) and data colonialism (life-as-data); equipped with a measurement instrument (PER, τ, Erasure Skew Ω, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20449267). Built to the MPAI specification. 14 canonical sections including contemporary misreadings, inverted-fan architecture, and prior-art membrane. This is a terminological priority claim, not a claim of field adoption. ∮ = 1
