Economic Praxis

• A "Material Library & Passport" database tracking the origin, composition, and potential for reuse/recycling of all materials in circulation (Minerals and Metals, Petroleum and Biofuels, etc.).
• Open-Source Design Files for all products, emphasizing modularity, repairability, and cradle-to-cradle principles (Design and Innovation).
• "Living Yield Maps" of the local ecology, showing sustainable harvest levels for biological resources (Extraction and Harvesting).
• A registry of "Human & Physical Resources" and "Art and Craft" capacities, connecting skills to projects.
• Real-time dashboards for monitoring "Prosperity and Resilience" indicators like resource stocks and system redundancy.

This Commons is the antidote to the opaque, extractive supply chains of capitalism. It makes the entire material footprint of the community visible and manageable. It is essential for the Ecological Harvest Guardian to set sustainable yields, the Circular Fabricator to source materials, and the Open-Source Solutions Designer to share innovations. It turns production from a private, profit-driven activity into a public, ecologically-regulated process.

To oversee and facilitate the healthy, circular, and equitable flow of materials and energy through the community, ensuring that all production and resourcing activities enhance, rather than deplete, ecological and social capital.
