Structural Cycle
The repeating macro-pattern of reign, compression, collapse, fragmentation, and stabilization that governs system behavior.

Glossary term
Structural cycles connect reign, compression, collapse, fragmentation, and stabilization.
Why It Matters
Cycle models contextualize local events inside broader repeating behavior.
How Stepzero Uses It
Stepzero maps cycle phases to prevent single-event overinterpretation.
Example
A table can move from compression into collapse and then into fragmentation before stabilizing.
