(draft)

This review uses the same glossary as the hardware audit, with emphasis on terms relevant to firmware/software.

Core Triads#

  • pos / Q / neg — regime behavior of digital systems
  • SET — Spin, Elec, Temp (applies to sensing, drift, and stability)

Software‑Specific Concepts#

  • Inference Layer — any algorithmic step that interprets raw data
  • Pipeline Drift — changes in behavior across versions or updates
  • Substrate Sensitivity — dependence on sample, environment, or hardware
  • Compensation Module — software that corrects for drift or noise
  • Adaptive Filtering — algorithms that change behavior based on input
  • Main glossary
  • Hardware overview
  • Regime notes
  • Alignment vs containment

These links help contributors keep FW/SW aligned with the broader canon.
