Synkyria and Living Systems: A Structural Homology Test under Finite Capacity

This record presents Version 1.0 of “Synkyria and Living Systems: A Structural Homology Test under Finite Capacity,” part of the Comparative Diagnostics under Finite Capacity (CDFC) series of the Synkyria Project. The paper tests whether standard living-system primitives — selective intake, exclusion, delay, and regime shift — admit a coherent role-level mapping to the Synkyrian transition grammar of ACCEPT, REFUSE, HOLD, and RE-DESCRIBE under finite capacity. The aim is not to reduce biology to Synkyria, nor to treat living systems metaphorically, but to identify where structural homology is strong, partial, or merely analogical. Version 1.0 includes a clarification of biological memory as an internal witness-proxy. Memory is not treated as identical with Synkyrian witness; rather, biological memory may function as an internal witness-proxy when it renders prior boundary contact legible enough to modify future admissibility-preserving execution. The paper builds on Fractal Onto-Praxis, Admissibility–Execution–Witness coupling, Field–System Coupling, and the Scale-Invariant Viability Transition Theorem. It prepares the comparative basis for later work on active inference, Gestalt bridges, trauma, memory, and finite-capacity accountability.
