Quick Scan
This is a closed, deterministic learning system — no generated answers.
All content is pre-authored, structured, and failure-aware.
Use it to navigate permaculture concepts without speculation.
It does not generate advice.
It does not invent answers.
It does not browse the web.
Every concept, protocol, and explanation inside this system exists before interaction and is presented through structured pathways.
Purpose: reduce misinformation, cognitive overload, and guesswork when learning applied ecological systems.
Bounded Knowledge
Content is drawn from a fixed, curated dataset.
No external sources are queried at runtime.
Deterministic Navigation
Users unlock information by progression, not prompts.
Search functions match existing terms only.
Failure-First Design
When information is missing, the system explicitly states so.
Users are routed to definitions or source material instead of fabricated explanations.
This design mirrors how engineering manuals, safety protocols, and standards bodies structure knowledge.
an AI chatbot
a conversational assistant
a content generator
a recommendation engine
If a concept does not exist in the system, it will not be created.
This constraint is intentional.
understand how permaculture systems connect
study concepts without opinion drift
avoid contradictory advice
learn progressively rather than randomly
fast opinions
speculative techniques
personalized advice

This system prioritizes accuracy over speed and clarity over persuasion, consistent with long-term educational reliability standards
The interface below provides structured navigation through predefined permaculture knowledge. It does not generate answers or provide personalized advice.
Use this system if you want structured understanding.
Pair it with the Librarian for discovery.
Consult the Glossary when terminology is unclear.
If you need certainty rather than noise, this is the correct entry point.
No. This system does not generate answers. All information is pre-written, structured, and delivered through deterministic navigation.
All content comes from the Permaculture Assistant website and blog. The system does not access external sources or create new material.
If a topic does not exist in the system, it is intentionally not answered. This prevents speculation and misinformation.
No. This system is an educational reference designed to improve understanding, not a substitute for real-world observation or professional judgment.
Search retrieves pages. This system organizes knowledge into structured pathways to reduce contradiction and overload.
