The attempt to describe the operational principles of the most fundamental aspects of reality: being, consciousness, identity, time, and causality. It's mechanics applied to first philosophy. How does causality work? What is the "mechanism" by which possibility becomes actuality? It's highly abstract, trying to sketch the wiring diagram of existence itself, often using logic and reason rather than empirical data.
*Example: "The philosopher's Metaphysical Mechanics Theory argued that time isn't a river but a 'block universe.' The mechanism of change is an illusion created by consciousness moving along a fixed world-line in the 4D block. His 'mechanics' were a logical model of how eternalism could function to produce our experience of succession."*
