Diagnostic compass

What is missing?

When coherence fragments or rigidifies, name the failure. The atlas returns the capacity that is absent — and a protocol you can walk. Applications show what that capacity looks like when it is built. Open the world page.

• Polarization / low trustEcho chambers, affective split, institutions that cannot reflect action onto collective outcome.
• Rigidity / freezeSacred narratives, suppressed play, institutions that cannot question their own purpose.
• Over-optimizationLocal metrics winning, exploratory variance collapsing, systems that cannot forget.
• Fragmentation / noiseResolution failing, meaning heat-death, agents that cannot collapse potential into action.
• Meaning collapseTotalizing certainty, no remainder, mystery treated as a defect to be closed.
• AI alignment wallsSingle-agent preference modeling, sycophancy, reasoning walls, no reciprocal recognition.
• Narrative debtLived reality has outrun official stories. Legitimacy crisis. Rituals that no longer mean.
• Attention ecology failureExtractive feeds, sovereignty loss, collective resolution captured by engagement optima.
• Physics anomaly / fine-tuningHubble tension, JWST early galaxies, S8, constants that look interior rather than random.
• Hybrid value driftSilent misalignment on both sides, one-time alignment documents, no renegotiation path.
