## Public-safe use

Use for control checklists, CLI vocabulary, neuroevolution analogues, and governance safeguards for operational breeding loops.

## What this report contributes

- The report connects browser-native CNN visualizers to foundation-model merging, neuroevolution, and parametric physical design.
- It describes operational components such as SLERP, task-vector merging, WIDEN, CycleQD, EXAMM, NAS, and lineage-like breeder equations.
- It reinforces that hot paths, evaluation, and provenance need explicit governance rather than ad hoc model promotion.

## What it supports

Model breeding can be represented as an operational stack: source artifacts, variation operators, evaluation suites, lineage ledgers, and release constraints.

## Boundary / what it does not prove

It does not provide implementation authority for autonomous self-modifying systems or attack instructions.
