UI Overlays — TriadicFrameworks Prompts

UI Overlays define how visual layers are rendered on top of the S3 Spine Visualizer and the Prompts UI.
They provide structural, diagnostic, operator, substrate, dimensional, and domain overlays that help users understand RTT engines, stacks, templates, and modules.

This page is the front door for all overlay documentation.


Purpose#

Overlays are used to:

  • visualize RTT operator grammar
  • show drift‑tensor behavior across layers
  • highlight coherence anchors
  • reveal substrate‑tensor transitions
  • display dimensional rails and transitions
  • map domain behavior across the six canonical domains
  • expose dependencies between templates, stacks, engines, and modules
  • support teaching bundles and diagnostic flows

Overlays are the visual intelligence layer of the Prompts UI.


Overlay Types#

The UI supports several canonical overlay types:

1. Structural Overlays#

Show identity, boundary, commitment, and topology.

Used in:

  • structural-stack
  • RTT/1
  • module identity sections

2. Drift Overlays#

Visualize geometric, operational, temporal, conceptual, and domain drift.

Used in:

  • drift-stack
  • RTT/2
  • drift templates
  • diagnostic flows

3. Coherence Overlays#

Highlight purpose, constraint, goal, and continuity coherence.

Used in:

  • coherence-stack
  • RTT/3
  • coherence templates
  • teaching bundles

4. Regime‑Point Overlays#

Show presence, absence, tension, basin behavior, and attractors.

Used in:

  • diagnostic-stack
  • RTT/12
  • regime‑point modules
  • advanced teaching flows

5. Substrate Overlays#

Visualize substrate behavior across physical, cultural, cognitive, civic, biological, and computational media.

Used in:

  • substrate-stack
  • RTT∞
  • substrate templates
  • cross‑substrate modules

6. Dimensional Overlays#

Show dimensional rails, drift, coherence, prime‑state transitions, collapse, and integration.

Used in:

  • dimensional-stack
  • RTT∞
  • dimensional templates
  • teaching bundles

7. Domain Overlays#

Visualize domain behavior across psychology, physics, economics, governance, AI/agents, and biology.

Used in:

  • domain-stack
  • domain templates
  • cross‑domain modules
  • research bundles

8. Dependency Overlays#

Show relationships between templates, stacks, engines, modules, and UI flows.

Used in:

  • dependency-graph.md
  • unlock-logic.md
  • flows.md

Overlay Behavior#

Overlays follow these rules:

  • overlays activate only when prerequisites are met
  • overlays stack visually in canonical RTT order
  • overlays may be toggled individually or in groups
  • overlays never override core UI content
  • overlays always reflect the current engine, stack, or module
  • overlays integrate directly with the S3 Spine Visualizer

Overlay Activation Rules#

Overlays activate based on:

1. Template Usage#

Using a template unlocks its corresponding overlay.

2. Stack Traversal#

Traversing a stack unlocks overlays for that stack.

3. Engine Selection#

Selecting an RTT engine activates engine‑specific overlays.

4. Module Viewing#

Viewing a module activates overlays relevant to that module’s layer.

5. UI Interaction#

Viewing dependency graphs or wireframes unlocks dependency overlays.


S3 Spine Integration#

Overlays map directly onto the S3 Spine Visualizer:

  • structural overlays map to the spine’s identity layer
  • drift overlays map to the drift‑tensor rails
  • coherence overlays map to the coherence anchors
  • regime‑point overlays map to attractor basins
  • substrate overlays map to substrate‑tensor transitions
  • dimensional overlays map to dimensional rails
  • domain overlays map to domain nodes
  • dependency overlays map to cross‑layer edges

The spine becomes a multi‑layer RTT visualization when overlays are active.
