1  # Mythogen AME - Affinity Mapping Engine & Field of Trust
 2  
 3  A regenerative framework for community design built on bio-mythic philosophy. Where mainstream technology mediates human connection through extraction, the Mythogen framework proposes technology as regenerative infrastructure that generates mutual value between people, communities, and living systems.

 7  ### The Four Distinctions
 8  A rigorous separation that existing software never makes:
 9  - **Needs** — You have them (individual requirements)
10  - **Beliefs** — You think them (mental models)
11  - **Principles** — You follow them (operating rules)
12  - **Values** — You live them with others (inherently relational)
13  
14  The Desert Island Test: Stranded alone, you cannot practice generosity if there is no one to receive. Values require others.

32  ## Features
33  
34  - **Living Seed Patterns** - Profiles that grow based on lived behavior, not static self-declaration
35  - **Field of Trust Detection** - 5 concrete indicators with hologram principle
36  - **Anti-Capture Mechanisms** - Y Cards, Time-Lock, Sacred Clown, Living Membrane, V-Crystal
37  - **LJ Map Integration** - 130+ values mapped to 3 cycles (Self-Worth → Self-Expression → Selfless Expression)
38  - **REST API + WebSocket** - Real-time FOT monitoring
39  
40  ## Quick Start
41  
42  ```bash
43  npm install
44  npm run dev    # Development server
45  npm run build  # Production build
46  npm test       # Run tests
47  ```
48  
49  ## API Endpoints
50  
51  ### Seeds
52  - `POST /api/seeds` - Create seed
53  - `GET /api/seeds/:id` - Get seed
54  - `GET /api/seeds/:id/y-cards` - Get transparency card
55  
56  ### Communities
57  - `POST /api/communities` - Create community
58  - `GET /api/communities/:id/fot` - Get FOT score
59  - `POST /api/communities/:id/trust-events` - Record trust event
60  
61  ### Anti-Capture
62  - `POST /api/communities/:id/sacred-clown` - Trigger disruption
63  - `GET /api/communities/:id/membrane` - Get membrane state
64  
65  ## Field of Trust Indicators
66  
67  1. **Mutual Support Frequency** - Spontaneous, not mandated
68  2. **Response Velocity** - How quickly community rallies
69  3. **Difficult Topic Engagement** - Conflict deepens rather than fractures
70  4. **Benefit Distribution** - Value flows to everyone, not just influencers
71  5. **Psychological Safety** - Vulnerability without fear of weaponization
72  
73  **Hologram Principle:** Trust manifests only when ALL dimensions align. Composite = minimum of all indicators (not average).
74  
75  ## Anti-Capture Suite
76  
77  - **Y Cards** - Complete algorithmic transparency
78  - **Time-Lock** - 30-day maturation (kills viral manipulation)
79  - **Sacred Clown** - Productive disruption preventing premature closure
80  - **Living Membrane** - Semi-permeable boundary (blocks threats, enables flourishing)
81  - **V-Crystal** - Immune system for conflict dynamics
