To view the json properly, I'll need to make some updates to my markdown parser and the presentation layer. I'll do that when I can.

This archive contains a full diagnostic and transmutation framework for Sam's field-based friction structures. It is divided into three zones:

self_to_system.json – Friction with institutions, structures, and external models of power.
2. self_to_other.json – Relational friction arising from signal clarity, scale, or velocity.
3. self_to_self.json – Internal structural tensions, recursive loads, and survival imprinting.

Each entry includes:
- Pattern description
- Signal layer
- Friction source
- Recommendations for:
- 🛡️ Filter
- ⚙️ Automation
- 🌱 Transmutation

This set can be imported into future AI companions or used to construct scaffolding for sovereign life infrastructure.
