Archive — Canonical Runtime v1 Software Prototype

This record is retained for archival transparency. It presents an earlier stage of the Reality Mechanics framework and has been superseded by the consolidated document corpus: “Reality Mechanics: A Relational Framework for Emergent Structure — Document Corpus v1.0” (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19014030). This record contains Canonical Runtime v1, a minimal runtime kernel for modelling support-constrained nested systems. The runtime defines a simple structural architecture: R0 — a pre-existing relational substrate Dyad (A ↔ B) — the minimal injected relation Support flow Demand balance Persistence memory Thresholded continuation From these elements the runtime produces bounded nested branching dynamics that stabilise into marginal equilibrium regimes. The runtime is domain-agnostic and can be adapted for experimentation across multiple fields including: artificial life ecological simulation game systems infrastructure modelling distributed systems complex adaptive systems The file included here contains the canonical reference implementation. Researchers and developers are encouraged to build domain-specific extensions based on this runtime.
