Do not promote to principle prematurely.
Summary:
A new type of AI-readable, developer-intent-encoded comment system has emerged, inspired by loop-aware AI prompt logic. These comments — called “Loop-Aware Crumbs” — behave as self-guiding notes embedded in code, carrying execution conditions, decision logic, and future triggers without risking AI misuse or premature generation.
These crumbs are not static notes. They are:
- Part instruction
- Part logic delay mechanism
- Part memory anchor
- Part loop safety system
They draw directly from the behavioral rules in the user’s custom Intentional Loop Prompts, which include:
- “Order for Next Turn”
- Anti-repetition behavior
- Quality-checking for progression
- Emotional tone balancing (joy vs collapse)
- Conditional autonomy
Source Prompts Integrated:
Order for Next Turn:→ Translated to# Order for AI Next Turn:inside a crumb- Self-awareness of repeated input → Now protects against redundant AI output or early builds
- “Next Prompt for Myself” → Enables delayed or conditional AI behavior when crumb reappears
- Joy/Negativity analysis → Optional inclusion for emotionally guided code evolution
Crumb Sample Format (loop-aware):
pythonCopy code# [CRUMB-NOTE]
# Intent: Planned addon – "MoodDeltaResponder"
# Status: NOT ready to build
# Trigger Condition: EmotionStack v3 must be active
# Order for AI Next Turn:
# → Check if EmotionStack v3 is available.
# → If not, skip this logic block and revisit later.
# → If yes, initiate scaffold with rollback logic.
# End of Crumb
Usage Purpose:
- Prevents premature AI execution
- Embeds conditional execution logic into dev notes
- Enables safe autonomous processing later, with boundaries
- Turns “dumb comments” into “living anchors”
Important Distinctions:
- Not an Update Note (doesn’t describe what changed)
- Not a Principle Yet (not system-wide behavior rule)
- Not a To-Do (it guides action but may not resolve to one)
- Not a control command (yet) — though could be tied to
