- docs/decisions/ADR-0008-allocation-physics.md Formalizes salience, attention, inhibition, and coherence-budget as the allocation physics of cognition. Replaces attention-as-weights with attention-as-field-curvature over the versor manifold. - docs/decisions/ADR-0009-compositional-physics.md Defines temporal binding, digest cycles, reasoning trajectories, and articulation planning as the compositional physics layer — how CORE assembles pressure into structured thought and output. - docs/decisions/ADR-0010-identity-physics.md Establishes IdentityManifold, DriveGradientMap, ExertionMeter, and CharacterProfile as structural identity primitives. Identity is a field over the geometry, not a prompt veneer. Grounded in John 1:1–2 and the Logos theology that anchors the architecture. - docs/architecture/MIND-PHYSICS-BLUEPRINT.md Integration blueprint showing how allocation → compositional → identity physics layers compose into the full cognitive cycle. - core/physics/ (11 Python interface stubs) SalienceOperator, AttentionOperator, InhibitionOperator, BindingFrame, DigestCycle, ReasoningTrajectory, ArticulationPlanner, DriveGradientMap, ExertionMeter, IdentityManifold, CharacterProfile — all typed, all frozen where stateless, all carrying explicit field contracts. Third Door: no off-the-shelf cognitive architecture borrowed. All operators defined from the geometry up.

Status: Draft — Under Active Development
The Three Physics Layers
CORE's cognitive cycle is governed by three physics layers that compose in sequence:
FieldState (populated by ingest layer, ADR-0007)

┌─────────────────────────────┐
│ ALLOCATION PHYSICS │ ADR-0008
│ SalienceOperator │ curvature → SalienceMap

IdentityManifoldbootstrapping protocol (architect-level, deliberate)- Renderer interface definition (ADR-0011, planned)
- Integration tests across the full ingest → allocation → compositional → identity cycle
