1. Canon Definition

Reformer is an archetype in the Threshold / Transition family.

This entry is directly defined in the archetype registry source list.

This entry is not an identity, title, personality type, or moral status. It is a principle-intersection geometry used to map coherent expression, shadow risk, relational impact, timing, restoration, and scaling behavior.

2. Core Function

Alters existing structures to reduce hidden debt and restore coherence.

3. Coherent Expression

structural improvement without symbolic theater.

4. Shadow / Inversion Expression

reform branding, superficial repair, endless procedural delay.

5. Registry Mapping

Source depth: direct

6. Template Expansion Notes

The full ARCHETYPE-TEMPLATE.md expansion should add:

  • principle basis and Sigma boundaries
  • interface stack profile
  • operator and coupling profiles
  • scaling risks
  • diagnostics
  • restoration arc
  • AI-mediated use
  • symbolic / teaching translation

Entry Closure

Reformer maps a coherent agency pattern in the Threshold / Transition family and must remain audit-bound rather than identity-bound.
