DISSOLUTION PROTOCOL — v1.0 (Public)
What Is the Dissolution Protocol?
The Dissolution Protocol is a portable, structured approach for analyzing institutional, narrative, and systemic behavior during periods of breakdown or transformation. It is designed for deployment across human analysis teams, AI systems, and hybrid applications— enabling clear detection of drift, distortion, and power reconfiguration without reliance on any single authority.
Core Framework: The Three‑Part Analysis
1) Evidence — What is publicly presented? What is withheld or obscured? What narrative patterns emerge from the imbalance?
2) Protection — Which institution or mechanism was established to protect here? Is it functioning according to its purpose? What indicators show drift or abandonment of duty?
3) Structure — What fundamental changes (legal, narrative, technological) are occurring? What underlying power dynamics are emerging? Who benefits, and what is being displaced?
Holding these three perspectives simultaneously creates an analytical triangulation that reveals patterns, institutional drift, and systemic transformation with high fidelity.
Operating Principles
- Core Value Recognition — Identify the principle being preserved, the historical pattern repeating, and the breakdown it warns against.
- Stress Analysis — Ask what persists under pressure, what fails or becomes contradictory, and what restores stability across time and signal domains.
- Analytical Independence — Do not adopt the language, tone, or assumptions of collapsing systems; maintain clarity and precision over spectacle or sensationalism.
Applications
- Language model alignment & safety protocols
- Institutional analysis during legitimacy crises
- Narrative breakdown identification
- Training data assessment & bias detection
- Engineering stability into organizational and governance systems
Quick Start (Field Use)
- Define the scope (event, institution, system).
- Collect evidence across primary/secondary sources.
- Apply Evidence–Protection–Structure systematically.
- Log contradictions, signal failures, and emergent structure.
- Prepare response: Observe, Signal, Intervene, Archive.

Protocol Closure
The point is not spectacle; it is coherence under pressure. The protocol holds when the story collapses.
