Drift Sentinel Examples — RTT/1

Example Dictionary for the Drift Sentinel (DS)#

These examples illustrate how the Drift Sentinel (DS) detects drift vectors, computes drift envelopes, maps drift fields, identifies amplification zones, and evaluates drift stability across R1–R4.

Each example demonstrates one or more DS operators:

DS‑Detect
DS‑Vector
DS‑Envelope
DS‑Field
DS‑Amplify
DS‑Stabilize

Examples are grouped by drift type.
