Thank you for your interest in contributing.
This repository defines a metapattern. Contributions are welcome as long as that distinction is respected.
You are encouraged to contribute:
- examples (new domains, new applications)
- tooling built on top of the pattern
- documentation that clarifies usage
- integrations with other systems or workflows
These contributions extend the phenotype.
The following are considered canonical and should not be redefined:
- the transformation structure
T : (S, I, C) → S' - the P ↔ V execution rhythm
- the five phases Φ₁–Φ₅
- the role of V++ as a selection gate
These elements constitute the genotype of the pattern.
If you believe the canon itself is flawed, fork the repository. Do not mutate the genotype in place.
- Fork the repository
- Apply the pattern in a new context
- Keep the canonical structure intact
- Submit a pull request with:
- a clear description of the use case
- the applied structure (UPS or equivalent)
- an explicit validation step (V++)
Pull requests that demonstrate use are preferred over theoretical discussion.
- Be precise
- Be explicit about assumptions
- Prefer structure over prose
- Avoid metaphysical or promotional language
This repository values operational clarity over persuasion.
By contributing, you agree that your contributions are released under the same license as this repository.
Attribution will be preserved.
This is not a consensus-driven project.
The pattern is intentionally minimal and stable. Evolution happens through application, not negotiation.
If the structure helps your work, use it. If it does not, leave it untouched.
