The World Pattern

From [Gay.jl/AGENTS.md](file:///Users/bob/ies/Gay.jl/AGENTS.md):

FORBIDDEN: demo_ Prefix

# ◇ FORBIDDEN - prints and discards
function demo_ancestry_tracing(threads)
    println("Tracing ancestry...")  # Side effect!
    # ... computation discarded
end

REQUIRED: world_ Prefix

# ◆ REQUIRED - returns composable structure
function world_ancestry_tracing(threads)::AncestryWorld
    AncestryWorld(materialize_ancestry!(threads))
end

World Builder Requirements

All world_ functions MUST return types implementing:

Enforcement

Run before every commit:

julia --project=. scripts/lint_no_demo.jl

CI will fail on demo_ violations.

GitHub Interactome Bridge

The worldinteractomebridge.jl module connects graph-theoretic analysis to the world_ pattern:

"Opened Twice" Detection

When traversing dense interaction graphs, detect duplicate visits via fingerprint XOR:

# From world_interactome_bridge.jl
function opened_twice(w1::InteractionWorld, w2::InteractionWorld)::Bool
    return fingerprint(w1) == fingerprint(w2)  # XOR = 0
end

function detect_duplicate_visit!(world, node)::Bool
    if node.fingerprint in world.visited_fingerprints
        world.duplicate_count += 1
        return true  # "Shortable opened twice"
    else
        push!(world.visited_fingerprints, node.fingerprint)
        return false
    end
end

Mapping to MinHash Deduplication

Compass Navigation (from Interaction Entropy)

compass_direction(0.92)  # => "NORTH" (highest contention)
compass_direction(0.50)  # => "SOUTHEAST" (moderate)
compass_direction(0.20)  # => "SOUTH" (consensus)

"The world remembers itself by worlding itself."
