ApertureOscillation

Aperture oscillation surfaces design tensions by holding a question constant and varying the scope across three structured passes. It aligns local component logic with system coherence by evaluating a tactical target against its strategic context.

Checking system coherence requires running a three-pass workflow across narrow, wide, and synthesis scopes. This process documents divergences between tactical targets and strategic contexts to output integrated tensions and ISC implications.

Structure the ai-design workflow by providing a tactical target and a strategic context as inputs. The workflow then executes narrow, wide, and synthesis passes to document divergences and surface design tensions invisible at any single zoom level.

Yes, aperture oscillation works for feature design and system coherence checks within larger platforms. It evaluates the tactical target against the strategic context to output coherence assessments and ISC implications for architecture decisions.

A structured three-pass workflow is needed when aligning local component logic with system-wide goals to surface design tensions. It enforces documentation of divergences across narrow, wide, and synthesis scopes to produce integrated recommendations.

Evaluating a single scope fails because design tensions often remain invisible at any single zoom level. Aperture oscillation solves this by holding the question constant and varying the scope to surface divergences between tactical and strategic contexts.
