- 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. |

Architecture Decision Records (ADRs)
This directory records every significant architectural decision made in the design and implementation of CORE. Each record is immutable once written — if a decision is superseded, a new ADR is created that references and replaces it. Old ADRs are never deleted or edited.
Format
docs/decisions/ADR-NNNN-short-title.md ← formal architectural decisions
docs/decisions/SESSION-YYYY-MM-DD.md ← timestamped working session logs
ADRs record decisions. Session logs record the reasoning process, open questions, and implementation details discovered during active development. Both are permanent record.
ADR Template
# ADR-NNNN: Title
**Date:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Status:** Proposed | Accepted | Superseded by ADR-XXXX
**Deciders:** [names/handles]
## Context
What situation or problem prompted this decision.
## Decision
What was decided, precisely.
## Rationale
Why this and not the alternatives. Which axiom(s) it serves.
## Consequences
What becomes easier. What becomes harder. What is now forbidden.
## Alternatives Considered
What was explicitly rejected and why.
