Overview

Chromatic Walk enables 3 parallel agents to explore codebase improvements using GF(3)-balanced derivation chains. Each agent holds a trit polarity, and together they form a self-boiling triad.

Walks are prime geodesics: non-backtracking paths that are unambiguously traversable in p-adic number systems.

Generator (⊕)  ─────┐
                    ├──→  GF(3) = 0  ──→  Prime Geodesic

Why Non-Backtracking?

Key insight: Chromatic walks are prime geodesics in derivation space, traversable unambiguously by zeta functions.

Zeta Function Traversability

Seed Chaining Across Agents

Each agent derives its seed from the shared genesis, offset by the golden ratio:

genesis = 0x42D  # 1069
γ = 0x9E3779B97F4A7C15  # Golden ratio constant

seed_generator   = genesis                    # +1 stream
seed_coordinator = genesis ^ γ                # 0 stream  
seed_validator   = genesis ^ (γ << 1)         # -1 stream

Derivation Chain (per step)

seed_{n+1} = (seed_n ⊕ (trit_n × γ)) × MIX  mod 2⁶⁴

---

GF(3) Conservation Invariant

At every step of the walk:

trit_generator + trit_coordinator + trit_validator ≡ 0 (mod 3)
      (+1)      +       (0)       +      (-1)      =   0  ✓

Self-Boiling Property

Like the Three Chromatic Samovars:

• Generator provides +1 (creative surplus)
• Validator provides -1 (critical reduction)
• Coordinator provides 0 (transport without change)

Walk Protocol

Phase 1: Genesis

just chromatic-walk seed=1069

Phase 2: Propose (Generator leads)

Generator proposes a codebase change with +1 trit.

Phase 3: Formalize (Coordinator transports)

Coordinator structures the proposal, deriving the interface.

Phase 4: Verify (Validator constrains)

Validator checks invariants and reduces.

Phase 5: Commit (combined)

If GF(3) = 0 at walk end, the improvement is committed.

Commands

just chromatic-walk seed=1069         # Initialize walk

three-match (-1) ⊗ chromatic-walk (0) ⊗ gay-mcp (+1) = 0 ✓  [Core Walk]

Goblin Integration

Chromatic-walk is the 0 Coordinator in the goblin triad:

shadow-goblin (-1) ⊗ chromatic-walk (0) ⊗ agent-o-rama (+1) = 0 ✓

Coordinator Capabilities

As the 0 goblin, Chromatic Walk provides:

• Transport: Move context between generator and validator
• Derive: Compute next seed in derivation chain
• Navigate: Traverse between realms (Beautiful Realms)
• Balance: Ensure triad sums remain at GF(3) = 0

Color Stream (Seed 1069, Stream 2)

Step 1: #46F27F (mint green)     ○ Transport
Step 2: #E2282A (vivid red)      ○ Derive
Step 3: #EE55F2 (hot pink)       ○ Navigate
