Mechanism Edge Creation

Create an edge representing a causal mechanism between two variables.

Tool

vault_add_edge

Protocol

  1. Verify both variable pages exist
  2. Determine edge type: derived_from (direct causation), component_of (mediating variable)
  3. Call vault_add_edge with appropriate weight (strength of mechanism)
  4. Document mechanism description in the source variable's page body
  5. Inline wikilink: Ensure the source page contains [[dir/slug]] pointing to the target (dir/slug = target path minus .md). Place inline where the mechanism is documented. If already present, skip.

HARD-GATE

Yield

Returns: { success: boolean, mechanism: string, weight: number }
