Canonical Artifact Name: Education OS Kernel v1.0 — Human Outcome Physics Kernel
Artifact Class: Executable Human Systems Diagnostic Kernel
Artifact Version: v1.0
Artifact Authority: eduKate Singapore
Canonical ID: EducationOS-Kernel-v1.0
Block 1 — System Boundary
System: A 6-person project team in a small organization responsible for delivering weekly client work over a 3-month window.
Included: task handover, communication flow, planning habits, skill coverage, leadership clarity, morale, and delivery cadence.
Excluded: company finances, unrelated departments, and long-term corporate strategy.
Block 2 — D/L/T Score Table (0–5)
| Axis | Score | Justification |
|---|---|---|
| D (Depth) | 3/5 | Members have individual skills, but weak shared standards and incomplete role clarity. |
| L (Load) | 2/5 | Under deadline pressure, work quality drops and rework spikes. |
| T (Transfer) | 2/5 | Lessons from past projects are not reused; mistakes repeat across cycles. |
Block 3 — Binding Constraints (e)
- Time constraint: fixed weekly deadlines allow little recovery margin.
- Communication constraint: handovers are informal and undocumented.
Block 4 — Trajectory Physics (t)
Rise: Early enthusiasm produced acceptable output.
Stall: Delivery stabilized but rework increased.
Regression: Deadlines began slipping and morale declined.
Lock-in risk: Repeating urgent fixes prevents process improvement, hardening inefficiency.
Block 5 — Failure Signature
Primary failure: L-FAIL (Load failed first)
Reason: The team cannot maintain performance under sustained deadline pressure.
Block 6 — Recovery Mode
Selected: Load Repair.
Block 7 — Retest Probe
Probe A – Stability under pressure
Track on-time delivery for 6 consecutive weeks.
Pass: ≥90% of tasks delivered on time with no major rework.
Probe B – Process buffering
Introduce a 10% weekly buffer for review and correction.
Pass: Rework hours reduce by at least 30% within 4 weeks.
Probe C – Reuse of learning
Document and apply one process improvement per week.
Pass: Same errors do not recur across two consecutive cycles.
Re-run rule:
If probes pass for 3 consecutive cycles, raise L by +1 and re-execute the kernel.
