Eidos

v0.2

An architecture for cheap code: humans design the Forms, agents fill them, and fitness functions verify the fit. The argument is in the essay; the specification is below.

01

Eidos Architecture

The canonical specification: Forms and implementations, the three commitments, the vocabulary, and the conformance levels that measure a repository against them.

02

Adopting Eidos

The playbook for existing projects: assessment, a first gate, forming the load-bearing modules, regenerability drills, and the anti-patterns that undo all four.

03

Form Template & Gate Registry

The canonical templates for a Form document and the gate registry, plus the parity check that makes the registry impossible to quietly falsify.

04

Eidos for Infrastructure

Where declarative tooling already separates Form from implementation, drift is the enemy, and six fitness functions buy an E2 estate in a weekend.
