Lamina Systems

SkillDev tools

Reason about causal product systems and change over time. Use when mapping stocks, flows, delays, purposes, or interconnections; diagnosing reinforcing or balancing feedback; recognizing recurring traps; finding high-leverage interventions; or deciding how rules can evolve safely. Use lamina-product-behavior for one workflow's authoritative states, prerequisites, and consistency rules.

Reference-loading protocol

  1. Match the request's primary system question to one row below.
  2. Open that linked reference before answering. Add another only when a second question materially changes the answer; do not preload the directory.
  3. Start the response with Using lamina-systems: <topic path(s)> so the selected system lens is auditable.

Outputs amplify or balance future inputs, especially with visible delayFeedback Loopsreinforcing/balancing loops and oscillation risks
Need safe change under uncertainty or protection against rule regressionEvolutionary Rulesreversible choices, deferred commitment, and invariant rechecks

Working rule

Use the smallest sufficient reference set. Diagnose recurring behavior with system traps + feedback loops, then use leverage points to choose an intervention. Add evolutionary rules only when the question includes rollout, reversibility, or future change.
