CUST Score (U/I - S)
0.30
U (Coherence)
0.24
I (Input Load)
0.30

Green = safe permeability · Yellow = protective closure · Red = overload risk

Presets

Controls

U Frequency (Processing Speed)0.40

Higher = rushing; can reduce effective capacity

U Amplitude (Coherence Depth)0.60

Higher = deeper breath / more stable baseline

S Threshold (Capacity / Buffer)0.50

Lower when tired, stressed, sick

I Density (World Intensity)0.30

More emails, crises, people, news…

I Velocity (Impact Speed)0.50

How fast events hit you

Try: Lower S and crank I to feel overload; then toggle Lock Ground State and watch the membrane recover.
