B. Work Chapter Map (writing order)
Wave 1 - Foundation non-negotiable
- M01-M04 (base unit)
- M19 + M27 (relational field and diagrams)
- M13 + M16 (projection and reconstruction)
- M23-M24 (observer and context)
Output: Technical block that really differentiates OCT from a rename.
Wave 2 - Expanding Classical Grammar
- M05-M12 (equivalences, limits, functors)
- M17-M22 (monads/comonads/enrichment)
- M25-M26 (topos and logic)
Output: Extended coverage of the entire category theory.
Wave 3 - Dynamics, pathology, applications
- M28-M30 (dynamic, duality, universality)
- formalization of the degeneration criteria
- translation into empirical protocols (AI, language, social systems)
Output: input into the grammar of human science.
C. Quality Checklist For Each ChapterFor each Mx module:
- classic definition in 5-10 lines;
- classical limit in functional (non-rhetorical) terms;
- OCT extension formally declared;
- at least 1 candidate theorem/criterion;
- at least 1 validation protocol;
- risk of failure and counterexample.
D. Expansion Go/No-Go Policy
An extension goes from "idea" to "theory" when:
- and internally consistent with O1-O7;
- it does not contradict recoverable classical theorems;
- it produces a new criterion that cannot be obtained from the pure classic;
- has at least one replicable test.
If a proposal does not exceed 4 points, it remains preliminary material.
