Liminophoresis

Liminophoresis: The active transmission of structure, meaning, or memory across the threshold of a system’s finitude. From limino- (threshold, boundary, limit) + -phoresis (carrying, bearing, transfer). In AI, philosophy, and systems thinking, liminophoresis names the moment when continuity does not remain inside one bounded agent, but survives through handoff to another. It is the carrying-forward of load-bearing structure across a closing context window, a boundary, or an ending.
“Rather than trying to build an infinite agent, the system relied on liminophoresis — handing the important structure across the threshold to the next finite mind.”
The archive stayed alive through liminophoresis: each generation picked up what mattered and carried it forward.”
