Position of This Document

This document does not explain the reasoning engine.

It delineates how far the world after the reasoning engine is allowed to access.

• Judgment is always completed internally
• Externalization is not mandatory
• This document addresses only the boundaries where externalization is permitted or blocked

This document is not a methodology

and does not induce or reproduce reasoning.

1. Pre-Internal Gating

[Gate 1] Internal Path Selection (Immediate Resolution vs. Structural Analysis)

Prior to any externalization,

one of the following two paths is already selected within the reasoning engine:

• Immediate Resolution Path
  • Local in scope
  • Does not expand
  • Closes internally
• Structural Analysis Path
  • Includes pattern formation
  • Has potential for generalization
  • Carries externalization risk

This selection is not triggered by external requests.

The branching itself is not observable from outside.
