The substantive work is: + +1. Watch + read the source material (one pass, then a careful + pass for note-taking). +2. Cross-reference each immune-system concept against the existing + Aurora-immune translations already on main and against the + superorganism framing in the multi-AI-factory substrate. +3. Identify one or more concrete factory-immune upgrades — e.g., + antigen-recognition for prompt-injection patterns, granuloma- + shape isolation for compromised actors, complement-cascade + shape for chained defense rules, hive-immune coordination for + multi-AI review patterns. +4.
