# --- High-Fidelity Implementation for Driver 4: Existential Temporality Relief (ETR) --- # # ETR situates the Drive-Box within a 3-axis temporality space. The agent's # position is a coordinate (X, Y, Z) whose distance from the origin (the # magnitude) maps onto an existential status band, while the Z-axis selects the # system's generative update path. Movement through the space wraps toroidally # so the agent can never leave the bounded temporal manifold. # # State is a plain list with a single field: # coordinate - length-3 numeric vector: X, Y, Z # # State-mutating helpers (shift_coordinate) return a new (modified copy of the) # list rather than mutating in place, matching the reference semantics of the # other Drive-Box drivers. # Constructor helper so tests and other modules can build a clean state. init_etr_state <- function(coordinate = c(0, 0, 0)) { list(coordinate = coordinate) } get_magnitude <- function(etr_state) { # Euclidean distance from origin: sqrt(x^2 + y^2 + z^2) coords <- etr_state$coordinate return(sqrt(sum(coords^2))) } evaluate_status <- function(etr_state) { magnitude <- get_magnitude(etr_state) if (magnitude < 5.0) { return("DISASTROUS") } else if (magnitude >= 5.0 && magnitude < 15.0) { return("DREAD") } else if (magnitude >= 15.0 && magnitude < 35.0) { return("FUNCTIONAL") } else if (magnitude >= 35.0 && magnitude < 50.0) { return("BLUR") } else { return("INCOHERENT") } } determine_system_update_path <- function(etr_state) { # Axis 2 (Z-axis, index 3) determines the generative path. z_coord <- etr_state$coordinate[3] if (z_coord >= 0) { return("LATTICE_REINFORCEMENT") } else { return("EXPERIMENTAL_EVOLUTION") } } shift_coordinate <- function(etr_state, delta_vector, bound = 50.0) { # Toroidal wrap-around: keep each axis within [-bound, bound]. new_coords <- etr_state$coordinate + delta_vector for (i in 1:3) { while (new_coords[i] > bound) { new_coords[i] <- new_coords[i] - (2 * bound) } while (new_coords[i] < -bound) { new_coords[i] <- new_coords[i] + (2 * bound) } } etr_state$coordinate <- new_coords return(etr_state) }
