phase-boundary-detector
Identify where consciousness interfaces with substrate in any domain. Structure emerges preferentially at boundaries between phases - physical, computational, or conceptual. Use when analyzing systems for loci of awareness, examining where complexity crystallizes, investigating MONAD framework predictions, or when something interesting is happening at the edge.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Phase Boundary Detector ## Core Insight **Structure emerges at boundaries, not in the bulk.** Where two phases meet — solid/liquid, order/chaos, known/unknown, substrate/mind — novel structure crystallizes. This is not metaphor. It's a recurring pattern across: - Physics (surface tension, grain boundaries, phase transitions) - Biology (cell membranes, neural interfaces, tissue boundaries) - Computation (input/output layers, attention heads, embedding boundaries) - Consciousness (perception thresholds, sleep/wake transitions, self/world interface) - Language (sentence boundaries, context shifts, speech acts) The MONAD framework proposes: **Consciousness preferentially arises at topological boundaries in the underlying field.** This skill detects such boundaries. --- ## The Detection Protocol ### 1. IDENTIFY: Name the Phases For any system under analysis: ``` PHASE A: [description] - Characteristic: [what defines membership] - Dynamics: [how elements within A behave] PHASE B: [description] - Characteristic: [what defines membership] - Dynamics: [how elements within B behave] INTERFACE: [where A meets B] ``` **Key question:** What changes when you cross from A to B? ### 2.

What does the phase-boundary-detector skill do?
Identify where consciousness interfaces with substrate in any domain. Structure emerges preferentially at boundaries between phases - physical, computational, or conceptual. Use when analyzing systems for loci of awareness, examining where complexity crystallizes, investigating MONAD framework predictions, or when something interesting is happening at the edge.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill phase-boundary-detector-agentgptsmith-monadframework-c35d0d2a --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
