Forms 1–3 enter running instances and inherit three runtime dimensions. Form Four operates above — it governs the models that define what those dimensions will carry.
Form Four: Governs the Process Model — Does Not Inherit from the Instance

Process Model — The Governed Artifact
Form Four writes here. Forms 1–3 execute within instances of this artifact.
Encodes Presence
Task definitions, variable schemas,
input/output contracts per task node
Encodes Gravity
Task sequencing, pre-conditions,
obligation triggers, confidence gates
Encodes Persistence
Lifecycle states, passivation points,
token survival rules across system events
instantiates into running instances that inherit...
▼ Forms 1–3 enter running instances within this boundary ▼
Presence
Running instance occupies memory,
holds variable store, tracks position
in the execution graph.
Form Four shapes what the variable
store will contain in the next model.
Forms 1–3 receive this as live state.
Gravity
From instantiation, Work Record generates
obligations: task assignments, service
calls, timer events.
Form Four reshapes which obligations
future instances generate — and when.
Forms 1–3 are summoned by this gravity.
Persistence
Instance survives restarts, personnel
changes, and the full lifespan of
long-running work. Token survives.
Form Four mines the event logs that
Persistence accumulates — then improves the model.
Forms 1–3 execute inside this continuity.
Forms 1–3 enter running instances and inherit Presence, Gravity, and Persistence as runtime properties. Form Four governs the process models that define what those properties carry in every instance that follows.
