Cross‑Domain Map — Expectations → FFT / FCG / RF‑Builder

TriadicFrameworks Canon
Version: 2026‑1.0
Location: /docs/Expectations/

Purpose#

This map explains how the Expectations Module connects to the three core “builder engines” of TriadicFrameworks:

  • FFT — Framework Field Theory
  • FCG — Framework Creation Guide
  • RF‑Builder — Regime‑Field Builder

Expectations is the root‑level orientation layer, and these three modules are the construction layer.
This document shows how they interlock.

1. Expectations → FFT (Framework Field Theory)#

What Expectations provides to FFT#

  • A clear definition of what a “framework” is expected to contain
  • Requirements for structure, regime traversal, observer behavior
  • Canon rules for dimensional rails, substrate feeds, and headers
  • Cross‑domain expectations (physics, medicine, computation, mythology)
  • Contributor expectations (zero drift, triadic lens, module.json metadata)

What FFT provides back to Expectations#

  • The mathematical and conceptual backbone for building frameworks
  • Field‑level operators that Expectations can reference
  • A consistent grammar for students learning the canon
  • A stable foundation for AI agents to reason canon‑aligned

Mapping#

Expectations → defines what a framework must be
FFT → defines how a framework is built

Expectations is the front door, FFT is the first workshop.

2. Expectations → FCG (Framework Creation Guide)#

What Expectations provides to FCG#

  • The rules for module identity, purpose, structure, and audience
  • Requirements for intake manifolds, headers, and observer loops
  • Contributor guidelines for building new frameworks
  • Roadmap alignment (what is stable vs experimental)
  • Sample files for intake/header/engine patterns

What FCG provides back to Expectations#

  • The step‑by‑step process for creating new frameworks
  • Templates for module creation
  • Operator grammar for framework construction
  • Examples that Expectations can reference for students

Mapping#

Expectations → tells you what you must deliver
FCG → tells you how to deliver it

Expectations is the requirements stack, FCG is the construction manual.

3. Expectations → RF‑Builder (Regime‑Field Builder)#

What Expectations provides to RF‑Builder#

  • The rules for regime traversal (R1–R4)
  • Observer expectations (O1–O4)
  • Substrate expectations (S1–S4)
  • Dimensional expectations (L/C/N rails)
  • Cross‑domain expectations for regime alignment (HPC, QC, Medicine, Physics)

What RF‑Builder provides back to Expectations#

  • The machinery for building regime‑fields
  • The logic for multi‑regime transitions
  • The field‑level structures that Expectations can reference
  • The examples used in cross‑domain teaching

Mapping#

Expectations → defines regime/observer/substrate requirements
RF‑Builder → constructs regime-fields that satisfy those requirements

Expectations is the regime rulebook, RF‑Builder is the regime engine.

4. Combined Cross‑Domain Flow#

High‑level map#

Expectations
   ↓
FFT — defines framework fields
   ↓
FCG — constructs frameworks using FFT rules
   ↓
RF‑Builder — builds regime-fields inside those frameworks
   ↓
IPD‑12 — runs them as engines

Expectations is the root, FFT/FCG/RF‑Builder are the trunk, IPD‑12 is the engine block, and RTT/GU/FFT/Pantheon/Med are the headers.

6. Notes#

  • This map is referenced by README.md, Expectations.md, and module_index.md.
  • It is intended for students, researchers, and AI agents.
  • It is part of the root‑level onboarding for TriadicFrameworks.
  • It is canon‑aligned and stable.
