dafit cac4dec411 refactor: hierarchical convergence of documentation (v5.0)
- Create architecture/ and operations/ subdirectories for essential docs
- Archive 10 supporting docs to archive/
- Write fresh Endgame-Vision.md v5.0 (383 lines, down from 2284)
- Add operations/Spark-Protocol.md (condensed boot sequence)
- Integrate December 2025 discoveries (Language is Topology, DriftProbe)
- Update README.md with new structure

New layer structure:
- Layer 0: Temporal Foundation (Heartbeat)
- Layer 1: Cellular Society (Evolution Engine)
- Layer 1.5: Cognitive Topology (Language is Topology - NEW)
- Layer 2: Young Nyx (Organ Coordination)
- Layer 3: Dual Gardens (Virtual/Real Loop)
- Layer 4: Trait Evolution (RLVR)

# Nimmerverse Sensory Network
Architecture documentation for a biomimetic AI nervous system and research platform.
## What This Is
This repository contains the design philosophy and architectural patterns for the **Nimmerverse Research Platform** - studying how intelligence emerges under economic constraints.
**Start here:** → [Endgame-Vision.md](Endgame-Vision.md) (the executive map)

## Core Concepts
### The Architecture (Layers)
| Layer | Name | Purpose |
|-------|------|---------|
| 0 | Temporal Foundation | Heartbeat cycles: reflex/awareness/growth |
| 1 | Cellular Society | Primitive genomes competing, life force economy |
| 1.5 | Cognitive Topology | Language routing: German→Philosophy, English→Technical |
| 2 | Young Nyx | Organ coordination, RLVR, RAG→LoRA pipeline |
| 3 | Dual Gardens | Virtual hypothesis generation + real validation |
| 4 | Trait Evolution | Reasoning-gym verified improvement |
### Key Discoveries (December 2025)
**Language is Topology:** Languages aren't equivalent representations—they're different computational paths.
- **Philosophy Valley** (German, Gini ~0.5): Self-awareness, ontology, depth
- **Technical Cluster** (English, Gini ~0.8): Hardware interface, actions, efficiency
### Philosophy
- **Constraints create intelligence** - Economic pressure forces optimization
- **Discovery over programming** - Organisms learn through competition, not instruction
- **Virtual + Real teach each other** - Noise gap measures learning
- **Partnership over instruction** - Mutual growth, not commands
