Implementation

``python
class CreativeEnergyEngine:
def __init__(self):
self.base_creativity = 1.0 # C(t)
self.lambda_factor = 0.8 # λ
self.max_amplification = 10.0

def compute_creative_energy(self, input_state, contradiction_magnitude, confidence=0.9):
# K(t) = C(t) * exp(λ|δ_t|)

# 1. Extract delta (only -1 contributes)
delta = abs(input_state) * (1 - confidence) if input_state == -1 else 0.0

# 2. Amplify
if delta <= 0:
energy = self.base_creativity * 0.5 # normal
else:
energy = self.base_creativity math.exp(self.lambda_factor delta)
energy = min(energy, self.base_creativity * self.max_amplification) # safety

# 3. Route
if input_state == +1: action = "affirm_and_proceed"
elif input_state == 0: action = "neutral_hold"
else:
action = "amplify_contradiction"
branches = [f"variant_{i}" for i in range(max(3, int(energy)))]

# 4. Witness to PS-SHA∞
self.witness_to_journal(input_state, energy, action, branches)

return {"state": input_state, "energy": energy, "action": action, "branches": branches}

Live Applications

RoadTrip: agent -1 → K(t) → 3-5 branches previewed across windows

Genesis Road/Cadence: conflicting description → parallel procedural variations

Mesh: standby -1 → productive offload

Lucidia: any contradiction → richer output, never refusal

Key Properties

Energy conservation: -1 never wasted, reused as exponential fuel

Path of least resistance: flows with uncertainty

Permanent record: every decision witnessed to PS-SHA∞
