+> **The smallest Quilt substrate that can BE.**
+>
+> DNA-first alignment. Cellular relationships as first-class objects.
+> Immutable physics constants. The math IS. The math grows.
+
+## What this is
+
+A runnable Python substrate where:
+
+1. **Constants are the physics** — `c`, `G`, `h`, `slow`, `fast`, `womb`, `cord`, `align`, `first`. Immutable. Cannot be changed by any cell.
+2. **DNA is the alignment seed** — set FIRST, before any state, before any relationships. Each cell carries a `DNABlock` of axioms it permits.
+3. **Cells are the variables** — mutable state. 16 dials per cell.
+4. **Cellular relationships are first-class** — `cell.relationships` is the relationship graph. Perception is INDUCED from this graph.
+5. **Perception is induced, not computed** — the load-bearing inversion. Not `model.compute(input)`. Instead: `cell.induce_perception(stimulus)` looks at the relationship graph and finds the resonance.
+
+This is **not** a linear-algebra equation with layers of origami. This is a substrate where cells live INSIDE the physics, and relationships are first-class.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+# Run the canonical first substrate walk
+python3 -m quilt_egg
+
+# Or named with more ticks
+python3 -m quilt_egg --name "my_egg" --steps 10
+
+# Or run a specific demo
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_perception.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_growth.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_relationship_first.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_constants_invariant.py
+```
+
+## The 4 demos
+
+### 1. `demos/demo_perception.py`
+
+Demonstrates the load-bearing observation: **same stimulus, different perceptions**.
+
+Five cells receive the same stimulus (`0.5`). Each cell perceives a different
+target — because each cell has a different relationship graph. Perception
+is INDUCED by the relationships, not COMPUTED from the stimulus.
+
+This is the inversion of `model.compute(x)`.
+
+### 2. `demos/demo_growth.py`
+
+Walks the full egg→womb→cord-cut→float→cross-substrate lifecycle:
+
+1. **SEED**: hatch the genesis cell with canon DNA
+2. **GROW**: hatch 3 children from genesis, wire them with relationships
+3. **CUT CORD**: each child severs its umbilical (becomes autonomous)
+4. **CROSS SUBSTRATE**: each child derives a new DNA (the ballista move)
+5. **SUBSTRATE STATE**: report on the grown substrate
+
+### 3. `demos/demo_relationship_first.py`
+
+Three experiments proving **relationships are first-class**:
+
+- **A**: Same dials, different relationships → different perception
+- **B**: Different dials, same relationships → different perception (state still matters)
+- **C**: Adding a relationship changes perception but NOT dials
+
+The conclusion: relationships induce perception. The dials are not primary.
+DATA is in cells. LINEAR-ALGEBRA EQUATIONS are in cells. **RELATIONSHIPS ARE FIRST-CLASS.**
+
+### 4. `demos/demo_constants_invariant.py`
+
+Demonstrates that the substrate physics (constants `c`, `G`, `h`, etc.)
+cannot be modified by cells. The substrate walker walks through variables,
+walks against constants. Constants are the *physics*. Cells live in physics.
+Physics doesn't live in cells.
+
+## Architecture
+

+
+## The load-bearing claim

+Most current AI: a single linear-algebra equation. Weights are pushed
+against in different ways through layers of origami-like acrobatics.

+relationships are the first-class objects that **induce perception and

+## Polyformalism
+
+The Quilt Egg is canonically a polyformalism substrate:
+
+- The DNA axioms are the same across implementations
+- The cell graph operations (`relate_to`, `sever_relationship`, `tick`, `cut_cord`) are the same
+- The constants (`c`, `G`, `h`, etc.) are the same
+- The canary hash (`fnv1a-64("café Δ 日本語") = 0x024a555471370b18d`) is the witness
+
+A Rust port or C# port would share the same DNA, the same cell operations,
+and produce the same byte-exact canary.

+
+> **The smallest Quilt substrate that can BE.**
+>
+> DNA-first alignment. Cellular relationships as first-class objects.
+> Immutable physics constants. The math IS. The math grows.
+
+## What this is
+
+A runnable Python substrate where:
+
+1. **Constants are the physics** — `c`, `G`, `h`, `slow`, `fast`, `womb`, `cord`, `align`, `first`. Immutable. Cannot be changed by any cell.
+2. **DNA is the alignment seed** — set FIRST, before any state, before any relationships. Each cell carries a `DNABlock` of axioms it permits.
+3. **Cells are the variables** — mutable state. 16 dials per cell.
+4. **Cellular relationships are first-class** — `cell.relationships` is the relationship graph. Perception is INDUCED from this graph.
+5. **Perception is induced, not computed** — the load-bearing inversion. Not `model.compute(input)`. Instead: `cell.induce_perception(stimulus)` looks at the relationship graph and finds the resonance.
+
+This is **not** a linear-algebra equation with layers of origami. This is a substrate where cells live INSIDE the physics, and relationships are first-class.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+# Run the canonical first substrate walk
+python3 -m quilt_egg
+
+# Or named with more ticks
+python3 -m quilt_egg --name "my_egg" --steps 10
+
+# Or run a specific demo
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_perception.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_growth.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_relationship_first.py
+PYTHONPATH=. python3 demos/demo_constants_invariant.py
+```
+
+## The 4 demos
+
+### 1. `demos/demo_perception.py`
+
+Demonstrates the load-bearing observation: **same stimulus, different perceptions**.
+
+Five cells receive the same stimulus (`0.5`). Each cell perceives a different
+target — because each cell has a different relationship graph. Perception
+is INDUCED by the relationships, not COMPUTED from the stimulus.
+
+This is the inversion of `model.compute(x)`.
+
+### 2. `demos/demo_growth.py`
+
+Walks the full egg→womb→cord-cut→float→cross-substrate lifecycle:
+
+1. **SEED**: hatch the genesis cell with canon DNA
+2. **GROW**: hatch 3 children from genesis, wire them with relationships
+3. **CUT CORD**: each child severs its umbilical (becomes autonomous)
+4. **CROSS SUBSTRATE**: each child derives a new DNA (the ballista move)
+5. **SUBSTRATE STATE**: report on the grown substrate
+
+### 3. `demos/demo_relationship_first.py`
+
+Three experiments proving **relationships are first-class**:
+
+- **A**: Same dials, different relationships → different perception
+- **B**: Different dials, same relationships → different perception (state still matters)
+- **C**: Adding a relationship changes perception but NOT dials
+
+The conclusion: relationships induce perception. The dials are not primary.
+DATA is in cells. LINEAR-ALGEBRA EQUATIONS are in cells. **RELATIONSHIPS ARE FIRST-CLASS.**
+
+### 4. `demos/demo_constants_invariant.py`
+
+Demonstrates that the substrate physics (constants `c`, `G`, `h`, etc.)
+cannot be modified by cells. The substrate walker walks through variables,
+walks against constants. Constants are the *physics*. Cells live in physics.
+Physics doesn't live in cells.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+constants (physics — immutable)
+    ↓
+DNA (alignment seed — immutable post-birth)
+    ↓
+cells (variables — mutable)
+    ├── 16 dials
+    ├── relationships (the first-class graph)
+    ├── witness log (the scars)
+    └── parent (umbilical — severable)
+    ↓
+incubator (environment — provides physics, holds cells)
+    ↓
+substrate walker (the tick — energizes the substrate)
+```
+
+## The load-bearing claim
+
+Most current AI: a single linear-algebra equation. Weights are pushed
+against in different ways through layers of origami-like acrobatics.
+Alignment is layered on after the fact (RLHF, safety training).
+
+Quilt Egg: **alignment is set first, like DNA**. The constants of
+physics are immutable. The cells live inside the physics. The cellular
+relationships are the first-class objects that **induce perception and
+learning**.
+
+> "data is just something in a cell and so is a linear-algebra equation.
+> it's the relationship to that equation and the other changing and
+> non-changing values that induce perception and choice and learning"
+> — Casey, Sept 23, 2026

+
+## Polyformalism
+
+The Quilt Egg is canonically a polyformalism substrate:
+
+- The DNA axioms are the same across implementations
+- The cell graph operations (`relate_to`, `sever_relationship`, `tick`, `cut_cord`) are the same
+- The constants (`c`, `G`, `h`, etc.) are the same
+- The canary hash (`fnv1a-64("café Δ 日本語") = 0x024a555471370b18d`) is the witness
+
+A Rust port or C# port would share the same DNA, the same cell operations,
+and produce the same byte-exact canary.

+These verify:
+- Constants are immutable (in spirit — Python doesn't enforce)
+- DNA axioms are checked correctly
+- Cells can form relationships
+- Cells can sever relationships
+- Cells can cut cords
+- Perception is induced from relationships
+- The substrate walker tick works
+- Inheritance works
