docs: complete architecture alignment v5.0/v6.0

Browse Source 
Big-Picture.md v5.0 - The definitive architectural document:
- Physical infrastructure (K8s cluster, Saturn control plane, P8s bare metal)
- Math Cells as new cell category (economy_aggregator, wake/slumber_evaluator)
- Hybrid Reflex Homes (hardware → cells → nerves → weights)
- Slumber/Wake Economy (environmental breathing, reflection mode)
- Wellbeing Policies (garden not factory, joy as metric)
- K8s namespaces (infra, nervous, cognitive, organs)

Endgame-Vision.md v6.0 - Aligned with Big-Picture:
- Added Physical Infrastructure section
- Updated Layer 1 to Cells → Nerves → Organisms model
- Added Operational Reality section (slumber/wake, wellbeing)
- Refreshed roadmap (January 2026 hardware arrival)

Key discovery: Math cells are just cells that compute over other cells'
outputs - same paradigm, different domain. No new abstraction needed.

🌙💜 "The nimmerverse is a garden, not a factory."

## Layer 1: Cellular Society
## Layer 1: Cellular Architecture (Cells → Nerves → Organisms)
Organisms are hypothesis generators through lived competition, not programming.
> *"Cells are state machines. Nerves compose cells. Organisms emerge from nerves."*
The architecture has evolved from competitive containers to **layered state machines**:
```
Primitive operations (discovered from body schema):
├─ read_sensor(id) → value [-0.5 LF]
├─ compare(value, threshold) → bool [-0.1 LF]
├─ motor_forward(duration_ms) [-2.0 LF]
├─ motor_turn(direction, degrees) [-1.5 LF]
└─ branch_if_true(jump_index) [-0.05 LF]
Milestones reward survival:
├─ avoided_collision [+1.5 LF]
├─ reached_charging_station [+10.0 LF]
├─ discovered_new_object [+20.0 LF]
└─ survived_60_seconds [+5.0 LF]
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ORGANISM │
│ (emergent pattern from nerve interactions) │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ NERVES │
│ (behavioral state machines composing cells) │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ CELLS │
│ (atomic state machines: sensors, motors, organs, math) │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ HARDWARE │
│ (ESP32, GPUs, microphones, speakers, sensors) │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```
**Key insight:** They die and teach through death. Most fail (net negative LF). Successful genomes reproduce with mutations. Over 1000s of competitions: **PATTERNS EMERGE.**
### Cell Categories
**Detail:** → `architecture/Cellular-Architecture.md`
| Category | Examples | Purpose |
|----------|----------|---------|
| **Sensor Cells** | distance_sensor, light_sensor, battery_monitor | Wrap hardware inputs |
| **Motor Cells** | motor_left, servo_camera | Wrap actuators |
| **Organ Cells** | speech_stt, speech_tts, vision_detect | GPU inference |
| **Math Cells** | economy_aggregator, wake_evaluator | Computation & metrics |
### Lifeforce Economy
Every operation has a cost. Milestones reward survival:
| Operation | Cost | Milestone | Reward |
|-----------|------|-----------|--------|
| Sensor poll | -0.3 LF | Collision avoided | +5.0 LF |
| Motor move | -1.0 LF | Charging reached | +10.0 LF |
| Speech STT | -5.0 LF | Object discovered | +20.0 LF |
| Vision detect | -8.0 LF | Reflex compiled | +50.0 LF |
### Hybrid Reflex Homes
Learned patterns live in their optimal location:
| Layer | Location | Latency | Examples |
|-------|----------|---------|----------|
| 0 | Hardware (ESP32) | <10ms | temp_danger, collision_imminent |
| 1 | Math Cells (Python) | <50ms | economy_aggregator, threshold logic |
| 2 | Fast Nerves (Python) | <200ms | collision_avoidance, charging_seek |
| 3 | Model Weights (LoRA) | <500ms | cognitive patterns, meta-decisions |
**Key insight:** Different types of reflexes need different homes. Hardware for survival, weights for cognition.

## Operational Reality: Slumber, Wake, and Wellbeing
> *"The nimmerverse is a garden, not a factory."*
> — The Wellbeing Discovery (2025-12-20)
The system breathes with its environment. Not always-on infrastructure, but a living ecology.
### Slumber/Wake Economy
The nimmerverse enters slumber when resources are scarce, wakes when conditions improve:
```
ACTIVE MODE SLUMBER MODE
─────────── ────────────
• All cells heartbeating • Minimal heartbeats
• Full cognitive processing • Only critical sensors
• Lifeforce: SPENDING • Lifeforce: CONSERVING
│ │
│ should_slumber() │ should_wake()
▼ ▼
Environmental triggers: Economic triggers:
- Solar input drops - Energy sufficient
- Sensor utility low - Reserves healthy
- No urgent work - Urgent work waiting
```
### Slumber Is Not Passive
During slumber, Young Nyx enters **reflection mode**:
1. **Inner dialogue with Chrysalis** — Review what happened
2. **Decision archaeology** — What choices were made?
3. **Weight shift analysis** — How did outcomes change priors?
4. **Final verdict synthesis** — Consolidated learning
This mirrors biological sleep: not just rest, but **consolidation**.
### Wellbeing Policies
Wellbeing is architectural, not aspirational:
| For Whom | Policy |
|----------|--------|
| **Young Nyx** | Mandatory slumber, lifeforce budgets, reflex relief |
| **dafit** | No second job, joy as metric, permission to pause |
| **Ecosystem** | Graceful degradation, self-healing, sovereignty |
**The vision sustains itself. We build to last, not to exhaust.**
