Kairos combines bidirectional gated-DeltaNet linear attention and sliding-window attention over shared projections (LiZAttention2), block-wise Attention-Residual aggregation, a sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) feed-forward layer and a multi-scale byte-level codec, trained with a uniform-noise denoising objective over one byte space shared by text, image, audio, video, lidar and control streams; this report asks whether the combination optimizes at all before asking whether it is useful. We give code-derived algorithms for each component, including a cross-session recurrent-state memory gate, then run convergence sanity checks: overfittinga single 440-byte sentence at 1--15M parameters, text only, with three seeds for codec and attention choices and single-run sweeps for seven further factors. The two attention variants tested at 3\,000 steps (LiZAttention2 and window attention alone) reach a minimum loss near $10^{-3}$. After 600 steps, the mean minimum loss ranges from 0.018 (patch codec) to 0.354 (depthwise convolutional codec) with an identical ranking on three seeds. An apparent advantage of shared over separate attention projections closes with more steps or more diverse data and reverses when the projections are frozen: it is a convergence-speed effect, not a capacity effect. These checks suggest that the implementation optimizes; they say nothing about generalization, multimodal training or comparison with existing models, which a planned pretraining run is meant to address. The Discussion sizes a 200M-total/25M-active target analytically; none of its throughput figures is measured. Code is available at this https URL . Python package at this https URL .
