Rebuild ETR as a single point on three independent toroidal axes, per the
restart discipline (laws -> tests -> fit constants). All prior ETR numbers
(R port and the CC-BY PDFs) are disowned; nothing carried forward.
- src/endocrine/etr/etr_invariants.md: ETR laws (+/-50 wrap, per-axis [17,35]
bands, opposition direction, AI-originated drift) with certainty tags, plus
the cross-organ drift/stress provenance (SAE -> EthInt convictions ->
stress endomotiv -> reshuffle / shift-rate) captured as open seams.
- src/endocrine/etr/etr.m: wrap + restoring direction implemented (law);
restoring magnitude (RESTORE_GAIN) and cross-axis coupling left as explicit
TBD stubs, not invented.
- src/endocrine/etr/test_etr.m + run_etr_tests.sh: red tests encoding the laws.
12 pass (confirmed laws), 2 fail honestly (unfitted magnitude + convergence),
2 pending (unconfirmed coupling / no-zero-crossing).
Language: GNU Octave (GPL/copyleft, lightweight, native torus mod-wrap). Ada
rejected for ETR (proves discrete invariants; ETR is continuous torus
dynamics). Rest of the Drive-Box stays R.

SOUL.md: YAML frontloader prepended to every other input -- name slot,
version (Gen.03), first-commit unix epoch, and base-7 encoded references to
vital file paths (each path's UTF-8 bytes as a big-endian integer in base 7).
drive_box.R: drive_box_input_slot() implements the hub topology -- Energy,
PS+, Ethical Integrity, ETR, AND the tarot spread each write their signal into
one input slot (the Ada Medium Phase_Enrich injection), headed by the SOUL
frontloader, with the raw user input appended. Not a chain; every subsystem
wires to the input.
Endocrine suite now 120 assertions, all green.
Executable reference implementation of the Drive-Box endocrine/affective core,
built TDD with a dependency-free R test harness (no testthat; runs on bare
r-base-core). Foundations dropped in as-is; the four drivers and the coupling
layer were each driven from a failing test first.
Modules (src/endocrine/):
- endocrine_array.R : 30-channel affective vector field + visceral friction
- priors.R : trauma/triumph salience records
- driver_energy.R : hard gate, tool-lock, exponential drag, asymmetric tool cost
- driver_ps_plus.R : aggregates endocrine + priors into existential load + arguments
- driver_ethical_integrity.R : antithesis penalty / alignment discount / conviction hardening
- driver_etr.R : toroidal coordinate, magnitude status bands, update path
- drive_box.R : the 'nervous system' -- afferent(PS+) -> modulate(Eth-Int)
-> efferent gate(Energy) -> regime(ETR); the 'full integration'
Energy.request_execution anticipated
- test_framework.R : minimal assertion harness (expect_*/test_case/test_summary)
- run_tests.sh : runs every test_*.R from repo root
Suite: 5 test files, 108 assertions, all green (run: bash src/endocrine/run_tests.sh).
An Ada/SPARK port to src/organs/drive_box/ is a later session; this track is its
behavior oracle.
