FPF Core Pattern Library

Depends on: nothing (root of dependency chain) Source of truth: assets/FPF-Spec.md — canonical specification (102K+ lines)

How to Use

Do NOT read assets/FPF-Spec.md in full. Identify the situation and load the relevant reference:

The table below is a fast index mirroring FPF's 15 canonical practical-use cards (E.11). When the situation is ambiguous, start from the entry-point row: load the cards, compare the plausible ones by their first-result difference, then open the direct pattern.

Dependency Rule

If a loaded reference links to other FPF patterns (governing-pattern cues), load those too from references/. Each reference lists its own dependencies.

Source for Agent vs Human

• Agent: always use references/ — the primary source of patterns. Do NOT read assets/FPF-Spec.md.
• Human: read and edit the canonical monolith assets/FPF-Spec.md (source of truth). After edits, run spec-decomposer to rebuild references/.

References Status

Ready — 293 pattern reference files + INDEX + 35 context sections.
