Principles

1. Clarity#

A framework must be clear in purpose, structure, and boundaries.

• clear purpose
• clear structure
• clear boundaries

2. Coherence#

All parts must align with the framework’s identity.

• internal consistency
• structural alignment
• behavioral consistency

3. Minimality#

A framework should contain only what is necessary.

• no redundancy
• no excess
• no bloat

4. Invariants#

Properties that must always remain true.

• identity invariants
• structural invariants
• behavioral invariants

5. Constraints#

Define what the framework cannot do.

• structural limits
• behavioral limits
• dimensional limits

6. Evolution#

Frameworks must evolve without losing coherence.

• versioning
• continuity
• adaptation
