Life Principles Application

Apply life's principles (adapt to changing conditions, integrate development with growth, be locally attuned and responsive, use life-friendly chemistry, be resource-efficient) as design constraints.

Stages

Stage 1: Ecosystem Pattern Extraction

Extract organization patterns from relevant ecosystems using ecosystem-pattern-extraction SOP. Identify symbiosis, emergence, cycling, and resilience patterns.

Stage 2: Evolution Mechanism Transfer

Map evolution mechanisms to design operations using evolution-mechanism-transfer SOP. Translate selection pressure, variation generation, and fitness landscape concepts.

Stage 3: Abstraction to Design

Abstract extracted patterns and mechanisms into actionable design constraints using abstraction-to-design SOP. Frame as "design must..." statements.

Minimum Yield

Metric	Floor
Ecosystem patterns extracted	≥3

Available SOPs

SOP	Role
ecosystem-pattern-extraction	Stage 1 — extract ecosystem organization patterns
evolution-mechanism-transfer	Stage 2 — map evolution→design operations
abstraction-to-design	Stage 3 — abstract to design constraints
emulation-generation	Post — generate solutions within constraints
web-search	Support — search for life principles literature
paper-overview	Support — find biomimicry principles research

Available SOPs

Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.

SOP	When to use
abstraction-to-design	Abstract biological principle to design principle. Bridge from biology to engineering.
ecosystem-pattern-extraction	Extract ecosystem-level organization patterns (symbiosis, emergence, cycles, resilience).
evolution-mechanism-transfer	Map evolution mechanisms to design operations. Translate selection, mutation, drift, radiation into design operators.
