Thesis¶
Nutrition fails when it accounts (calories, macros, slogans) instead of executing (packets through gates under host state).
This project standardizes the interfaces:
- typed food packets
- gate vs bound
- claim audit that stops when a gate is closed
All three are executable: see cookbook 4 — auditing a real claim.
For engineers¶
Build against the constitution:
- fail closed when data is missing
- never promote soft verbs (
supports,boosts,detox) to law without a typed relation - never L1→L5 tunnel (food → disease slogan without mechanism)
Adding a teaching pathway graph? Use the pathway contribution template (registry wire → export mermaid → integration check).
Book¶
The full book is in progress and not yet released — there's nothing to buy or preorder yet. This site is the open samples + architecture companion; the manuscript will be published separately when it's done.
