The Operating Window

The range of conditions over which a machine actually closes — reported, not just the peak.

Breeder scan

25,000+ configs

Rather than a single hero point, Kronos reports the operating window: the region of parameter space where the machine genuinely closes on power balance and stability. The breeder scan spans 25,000+ configurations; the burner scans show closure crossing a specific fuel-fraction boundary.

Publishing the window — including where the machine does not close — is a deliberate honesty choice.
