Construction role

SelfDesc turns the ω-germ into formal genotype and the normal form into phenotype. The genetic code, central dogma, replication, proofreading, and mismatch repair become realizations of code reconstruction and blueprint propagation. Biochemistry supplies the implementation; the τ-claim is heredity as SelfDesc-preserving code transport.

What this step earns

Code, genotype, and heredity is made addressable as Step 082 in the fine-grained Construction Spine routing layer.

• Routing scaffold. Detailed earned-output extraction is pending the source-map pass.

What this step does not yet establish

This route exposes the RC3 construction step for inspection. It does not by itself establish peer review, empirical adequacy, or final manuscript-level source closure.

Source anchors
