Graph Propagation & System Contagion
Systems are not isolated.
Failures spread.
A disruption in one node can:
- cascade
- amplify
- propagate
across an entire system.
The Pattern
Graph Propagation models relationships between components.
It evaluates how state changes in one part of the system affect others.

- graph@1 — propagates state across nodes
- mc@1 (optional) — adds stochastic variation
- ensemble@1 — aggregates system outcomes
What Gets Computed
Forge does not compute:
- isolated outcomes
Forge computes:
- cascade effects
- propagation paths
- system-wide impact
- fragility networks
Output Artifacts

failure_spread_profile
replay_tokenWhy It Matters
Many systems fail due to:
- interconnected dependencies
- hidden coupling
- cascading effects
Why Forge
Forge enables:
- system-level reasoning
- propagation modeling at scale
- deterministic replay of cascades
