Time Bomb

Plant a delayed effect that punishes inaction or careless proximity.

Overview

Use Time Bomb for deferred actions, scheduled checks, or payloads that should go off later instead of right now.

This is the secondary Codex compatibility rendering of a hybrid battle-chip pattern with a shipping-now execution model.

Canonical chip family: Time Bomb Codex shelf: Traps and Obstacles Provider target: Codex compatibility surface.

When To Use

  • The action should trigger after a delay or at a chosen checkpoint.
  • You want the target to react to the presence of the payload.
  • Immediate execution would be premature or noisy.

Workflow

  1. Pick the trigger time or condition.
  2. Plant the payload with explicit cancellation rules.
  3. Either disarm it on success or let it fire on schedule.

Deliverables

  • A scheduled task, delayed reminder, or conditional payload.
  • A clear disarm condition.

Guardrails

  • Never plant a bomb without a known owner and cancel path.
  • If the blast radius is unclear, do not arm it.

Default Invocation

Use Time Bomb to design or place a delayed action with an explicit trigger, owner, and cancel path before it is armed.
