TS Primer
A bounded public primer for the technical TS vocabulary.
Node
A unit of state in a constraint graph: claim, token, observation, artifact, or model state.
Edge
A relationship or constraint between nodes. Edges carry weight, provenance, and sometimes direction.
Activation
The currently relevant pressure or signal on a node during a wave step.
Tension
Residual mismatch between constraints and current state. Tension is a diagnostic, not a magic truth score.
Stability
A state that remains coherent under the current constraints and update rules.
Coherence
How well a local or global configuration satisfies its constraints without hiding contradictions.
Attractor
A stable region a graph tends to return to under relaxation.
Propagate -> Relax -> Break -> Evolve
Send signal through the graph, reduce tension locally, split when a shared context fails, then revise structure.
Public TS vs symbolic/private TS
The site uses public, technical TS terms. Personal shorthand and symbolic language stay out of formal receipts.
Why claims need receipts
A claim is only useful when it has setup, result, limit, replay path, and provenance.
