Generation protocol
A pulp-SF technical plate as a VERTICAL STACK diagram (tower section, not radial): a communication trunk between two agent housings, shown in seven stacked stages — at the top, a bulbous atrophied speech-bellows (the one organic component, deflated, slightly comic); below it, successive compression chambers squeeze prose into ever-denser punched ribbon, ending in a thin crystalline action-state ledger at the base. Black linework plus phosphor green second ink on warm stock, halftone shading, numbered legend down one side, registration marks. Parts-list joke about the bellows being kept for ceremonial announcements. 4:5, Bureau filing layer, German or illegible lettering.
