Merge Pressure
GauntletChart · staggered compound streamAI can increase code production without increasing review service. Each PR is one compound body: code points in the core, negative traits attached as satellites, and repeat visits when CI sends that same body back. Only merged PR points accumulate into the Feature.
Feature thresholdUnique merged PRs contribute their code points once.18 merged points
PR coreCircle area grows with code points; arrivals are staggered by the scenario.
Negative traitSquare satellites remain attached until AI or human review transforms or removes them.
Shared serviceHuman Review is one FIFO work queue across every compound PR core.
FeatureThe socket fills from unique merged PR points, not PR count or review activity.
Coding throttles the system: 5 PRs carry 20 code points. Incoming work is 3.4 points per second against 5 review points per second. 0 of 18 Feature points have merged.

What actually changed
Stream startingPR compounds will arrive on their own project-local clocks. Reusable mechanics
Entity, service, transition, aggregate.
The page supplies domain data and policies. GauntletChart now owns staggered local timelines, core-only capacity service, occurrence-preserving property changes, and an ordered event tape. The process recipe owns weighted group completion, so a Feature can be any threshold of uniquely completed member value.
compound entityOne semantic PR is a core plus repeated negative-property occurrences.
shared capacityA gate processes root entities by work units and re-arms only after a real exit.
weighted groupMerged PR values accumulate once toward a generic threshold outcome.
