# Triple flywheel

Why closed-loop RCA compounds instead of resetting every deployment.

IntelFactor compounds when you capture the full loop.

### The flywheel

1. **Detect:** consistent outcomes with evidence.
2. **Explain:** local RCA hypotheses with confidence.
3. **Act:** SOP-linked recommendations.
4. **Verify:** operator disposition + measured outcome.
5. **Learn:** store verified triples for future prevention.

### What makes it different

* It’s local-first.
* It’s auditable.
* It captures “what fixed it”, not just “what happened”.
