1. Function

The Intent and Referent Analysis (PGM‑IRA) AIM derives, from the Meaning produced by Prompt Token Analyser, the goal-directed purpose of the User’s utterance and resolves the referential expressions it contains to Entities of the scene or interaction history.

PGM‑IRA:

Infers the User’s Intent from the Meaning, determining its category (Informational, Procedural, Confirmational, Expressive, Spatial, or Meta-Interaction), specific action type, urgency, confidence level, temporal cues, and spatial anchors.
Resolves referential expressions — pronouns, definite descriptions, demonstratives, and deictic gestures — to Entities of the scene or of earlier interaction turns, expressing each resolution as a Proposition linking a subject to an object via a predicate, with spatial and temporal context where applicable.
Queries Basic Knowledge via BKN-PRC when world knowledge is needed to disambiguate intent or resolve a referent.
Queries A‑User Storage via PRC IH when prior interaction context is needed to resolve a referent or confirm an intent.

PGM‑IRA does not enrich the intent with goal constraints, scene context tags, or expressive configuration. It establishes what the User intends and what the referring expressions denote, and leaves contextualisation and prompt planning to the downstream Sub-AIMs of Prompt Creation.

3. Input/Output Data

Table 1 specifies the Input and Output Data of the Intent and Referent Analysis (PGM‑IRA) AIM.

Table 1 – I/O Data of the Intent and Referent Analysis (PGM‑IRA) AIM

Input	Description
Meaning	Structured linguistic analysis of the Text Object produced by Prompt Token Analyser, carrying POS tagging, named entity tagging, dependency structure, and semantic role labelling results.
PRC Directive	Directive from A‑User Control specifying scope, depth, and policy constraints for prompt construction.
PRC IH Response	Interaction History response from A‑User Storage providing prior interaction context to support referent resolution and intent disambiguation.
BKN-PRC Response	Response from Basic Knowledge to a BKN-PRC Request issued by this AIM, providing world knowledge to support intent inference or referent resolution.
Output	Description
Intent	Structured representation of the User’s goal-directed purpose, carrying category, action type, parameters (urgency, confidence level, temporal cue, spatial anchor), and confidence score.
Proposition	Structured resolution of referential expressions to scene Entities, expressed as subject–predicate–object triples with spatial and temporal context.
PRC Status	Status signal reporting the processing outcome of the AIM.
PRC IH Request	Request for Interaction History issued to A‑User Storage.
BKN-PRC Request	Request for world knowledge issued to Basic Knowledge to support intent inference or referent resolution.

8. Conformance Testing

Table 2 provides the Conformance Testing Method for the Intent and Referent Analysis (PGM‑IRA) AIM.

If a schema contains references to other schemas, conformance of data for the primary schema implies that any data referencing a secondary schema shall also validate against the relevant schema, if present, and conform with the Qualifier, if present.

Table 2 – Conformance Testing Method for the Intent and Referent Analysis (PGM‑IRA) AIM

Receives	Meaning	Shall validate against the Meaning schema.
	PRC Directive	Shall validate against the PRC Directive schema.
	PRC IH Response	Shall validate against the PRC IH schema.
	BKN-PRC Response	Shall validate against the BKN-PRC schema.
Produces	Intent	Shall validate against the Intent schema.
	Proposition	Shall validate against the Proposition schema.
	PRC Status	Shall validate against the PRC Status schema.
	PRC IH Request	Shall validate against the PRC IH schema.
	BKN-PRC Request	Shall validate against the BKN-PRC schema.
