Connections

Ties the account to AP01, AP02, AP06, AP32, AP33, AP34, and AP36.

AP01: viability geometry. The body operates under budget, drift, corridor. Illness = departure from corridor. Death = crossing the no-return surface.

AP02 (The Operator): every biological agent is an operator. Budget = ATP/nutrients. Drift = entropy. Sovereignty = reserves exceeding obligations. Exit = death.

AP06 (The Leakage Constant): ε = the irreducible metabolic cost. No biological process is frictionless.

AP32 (The Correction): the correction hierarchy. The immune system is Level 2. Surgery is Level 3. Prevention is sustained Level 1.

AP33 (The Boundary): the jurisdiction boundary. Below ε: individual sovereignty. The body is the physical substrate of that sovereignty.

AP34 (The Inversion): cannabis and psilocybin as tools that couple through existing biological channels (ECS, 5-HT2A). The tool/crutch distinction is the biological instance of AP36’s extraction test.

AP36 (The Feed): the feed. Nutrients as coupling capacity. Dependency as locked coupling. Toxic accumulation as buffer overflow. The body’s energy system is AP36 applied to the individual operator.
