Subdomain Evolution

1. Review Current Ontology

Check all 6 categories (31+ variants):

• Environment: distributed, focused, associative, chronological, manifest
• Entity: primary, secondary, imperative, latent, aggregate, ancestral
• Cognition: axiom, discourse, protocol, gloss, motive, quantum
• Synapse: navigate, execute, inquiry, destructive, social
• State: stable, evolving, deprecated, locked, simulated
• Atmosphere: neutral, ethereal, void, vibrant

2. Try Combinations

// Can creative combination serve the need?
.element {
  @include genesis-entity('primary');
  @include genesis-state('evolving');
  @include genesis-atmosphere('vibrant');
}

3. Confirm Genuine Gap

• Is this semantic (WHAT), not visual (HOW)?
• Cannot combine existing mixins to achieve this?
• Would 3+ subdomains use this pattern?
• Represents information intent, not visual style?

4. Create Proposition

Required elements:

• Source Node (subdomain name)
• Intent — WHAT it represents (one sentence)
• Context — WHY current ontology doesn't cover it
• Category + Suggested Label
• Use Cases (3+ concrete examples)
• Universal Applicability

5. Submit PR

Create PR to theme.asisaga.com with label ontological-proposition. Theme Genome Agent reviews.

Quality Guidelines

Strong Propositions:

• ✅ Semantic, not visual
• ✅ Universal applicability (3+ subdomains)
• ✅ Clear category fit
• ✅ Demonstrates gap analysis
• ✅ 3+ distinct use cases

Weak Propositions:

• ❌ "I want blue buttons" — visual preference
• ❌ Single subdomain use case — not universal
• ❌ Combinable with existing mixins — use combination
• ❌ Vague semantic intent — be specific
