Summary
SubReparo introduces a new proof-of-repair mechanism designed to extend Polkadot’s long-term autonomy and reduce downtime across runtimes, validators, and parachains.
It replaces static state resets with adaptive repair cycles, enabling self-healing consensus recovery without human intervention.
Technical Context
Unlike transaction-based proofs, SubReparo operates as a repair ledger, validating recovery events through gradient-corrective feedback loops (Reparodynamics framework).
This allows Polkadot systems to self-diagnose, adapt, and restore equilibrium after state faults.
- Core Mechanism: Adaptive-Buffer Equilibrium (ABE)
- Validation Type: Proof-of-Repair (PoR)
- Metrics: Repair Frequency, Drift Variance, System Latency, Efficiency Ratio
- Integration Target: Substrate runtime layers and relay-chain resilience modules
Recent Developments
Full adaptive-buffer validation completed (see Zenodo DOIs below).
Simulations achieved >98% repair efficiency per cycle under multi-node stress tests.

Next Step Proposal
Seeking feedback from Polkadot Fellowship and Research members on:
- Integration pathways for runtime-level repair tracking
- Viability of Proof-of-Repair as a substrate consensus extension
- Potential pilot or grant pathway for validation
Invitation
Feedback, questions, and collaboration are welcome.
If anyone is exploring self-repair, resilience, or adaptive recovery research,
SubReparo may directly align with those goals.
Best,
