> **"Don't just train a model. Raise an organism."**

**DNO** (Dynamic Neural Organism) is a PyTorch framework that treats neural networks as **living, evolving biological entities**. Unlike static architectures that are fixed at initialization, a DNO **grows new layers**, **specializes into expert lobes**, and **prunes dead tissue** — all in real-time, based on the complexity of the data it consumes.

## ⚡ Quickstart

```bash
pip install dno
```

```python
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
from dno import (
    OrganismManager, DynamicNetwork, BaseEvolvableModule,
    DnoConfig, GrowthEngine
)

# 1. Configure the organism's DNA
config = DnoConfig(training_phase='adaptive', d_model=64, entropy_threshold=0.5)

# 2. Build the body
manager = OrganismManager()
network = DynamicNetwork(manager, config)

# 3. Plant the seed (any PyTorch module)
seed = BaseEvolvableModule(nn.Linear(64, 64))
seed.dynamic_id = "seed_cortex"
seed.set_specialty("general")
network.add_layer(seed)

# 4. When the organism gets confused, it grows!
growth = GrowthEngine(network, config)
optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(network.parameters(), lr=1e-3)

# Force-grow a new expert lobe
growth.inject_layer("seed_cortex", "expert_math", optimizer=optimizer)

# Focus training only on the new expert
growth.freeze_all_except("expert_math")

print(f"🧬 Organism now has {len(manager.registry)} active layers")
# >>> 🧬 Organism now has 2 active layers
```

## 🧠 Core Philosophy

Traditional AI is like a **Statue**: You carve it (define architecture), polish it (train), and it stays that way forever.

DNO is like a **Tree**: You plant a seed (Seed Cortex). If the environment is rich (complex data), it grows branches (Expert Lobes). If a branch is useless, it withers and gets pruned.

### Key Capabilities

| Feature | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| **Neurogenesis (Mitosis)** | The network physically adds new layers when "confused" (High Entropy) |
| **Specialized Organisms** | The brain divides into a "General Core" and task-specific "Expert Lobes" |
| **Dynamic Gradient Locking** | Automatically freezes Core during Expert training and vice versa |
| **Surgical Training Control** | Manually inject layers, freeze/unfreeze specific experts |
| **Smart Routing** | Routes "Familiar" data to the Core and "Novel" data to Experts |
| **Robust Persistence** | Save/Load with automatic repair of broken or missing modules |
| **Auto-Casting** | Safely handles raw Token IDs (LongTensor) by auto-casting to Float32 |
| **Survival Engine** | Monitors layer utility via Information Gain; prunes dead tissue |

**What happens during Mitosis?**
1. **Cloning**: The parent layer is deep-copied.
2. **Mutation**: Variance-based noise (from optimizer state) is added to break symmetry.
3. **Gamma Gating**: The clone enters with `gamma=0.0` (IdentityWrapper) so it initially does nothing, then gradually participates.
4. **Rewiring**: The clone is connected to the same inputs/outputs as the parent (parallel branch).
5. **Optimizer Sync**: The clone's parameters are registered to the optimizer with a high initial LR that decays (Cold Start).

## 🧬 The DNO Lifecycle

Raising a DNO involves distinct biological phases.

### Phase 1: DNA Configuration (`DnoConfig`)

Before birth, define the organism's genetic constraints.

```python
from dno import DnoConfig

config = DnoConfig(
    # --- Lifecycle ---
    training_phase='scratch',       # 'scratch' (Infancy) or 'adaptive' (Adulthood)
    
    # --- Growth Triggers ---
    entropy_threshold=0.6,          # Confusion > 0.6 → consider growing
    evolution_cooldown_steps=100,   # Min steps between mitosis events
    min_loss_improvement=0.001,     # Required loss drop before allowing new growth
    
    # --- Physical Constraints ---
    max_param_count=100_000_000,    # Cap at 100M parameters
    vram_limit_gb=4.0,             # Stop growing if VRAM exceeds 4GB
    
    # --- Architecture Defaults ---
    d_model=128,                    # Hidden dimension size
    n_heads=4,                      # Attention heads for Transformer blocks
    dropout_rate=0.1,               # Dropout rate
    
    # --- Survival ---
    utility_threshold=0.01,         # Layers below this are marked "dying"
    grace_period=100,               # Steps before dying layers get pruned
)
```

> **Tip**: Set `manual_mode=True` to skip auto-scaling of `d_model`, `n_heads`, and `learning_rate`.

### Phase 2: Infancy (`scratch` Training)

**Goal**: Build a strong generalist core ("Seed Cortex").  
**Behavior**: Growth is **DISABLED**. The model behaves like a standard, static PyTorch model.

```python
from dno import OrganismManager, BaseEvolvableModule, DynamicNetwork
import torch
import torch.nn as nn

# 1. Initialize
manager = OrganismManager()
network = DynamicNetwork(manager, config)

# 2. Add the Seed Cortex (any PyTorch module)
seed_layer = nn.Sequential(
    nn.Linear(128, 128),
    nn.ReLU(),
    nn.Linear(128, 10)
)
seed = BaseEvolvableModule(seed_layer)
seed.dynamic_id = "seed_cortex"
seed.set_specialty("general")  # Mark as General Core
network.add_layer(seed)

# 3. Standard PyTorch training loop — NO growth happens
optimizer = torch.optim.Adam(network.parameters(), lr=1e-3)

for epoch in range(100):
    optimizer.zero_grad()
    output = network(input_data)
    loss = criterion(output, targets)
    loss.backward()
    optimizer.step()
```

### Phase 3: Adulthood (`adaptive` Growth)

**Goal**: Adapt to new, complex tasks by growing specialized organs.  
**Behavior**: The model monitors entropy. High confusion triggers **Mitosis**.

```python
from dno import GrowthEngine

# 1. Switch Phase
config.training_phase = 'adaptive'

# 2. Initialize Growth Engine
growth_engine = GrowthEngine(network, config)

# 3. Training loop with entropy monitoring
for step in range(1000):
    optimizer.zero_grad()
    output = network(inputs)
    loss = criterion(output, targets)
    loss.backward()
    optimizer.step()
    
    # Calculate entropy manually (or use your own tracking)
    with torch.no_grad():
        probs = torch.softmax(output, dim=-1)
        entropy = -torch.sum(probs * torch.log(probs + 1e-9), dim=-1).mean().item()
    
    # Check growth trigger (pass recent entropy history)
    entropy_history.append(entropy)
    is_triggered, reason = growth_engine.check_growth_trigger(
        entropy_history=entropy_history[-10:],
        current_step=step,
        current_loss=loss.item()
    )
    
    if is_triggered:
        print(f"🌟 EPIPHANY! Reason: {reason}")
        
        # Trigger Mitosis — clone the seed into a new expert
        growth_engine.mitosis(
            parent_uuid="seed_cortex",
            optimizer=optimizer,
            specialty_tag="expert_coding_v1"
        )
    
    # Decay new layer learning rates
    growth_engine.stabilize_optimizer(optimizer)
```

### Phase 4: Fluid Serialization (Save/Load)

Standard `torch.save` fails on DNOs because the architecture changes dynamically. Use the `.dno` format.

```python
# Save everything (Topology + Weights + Config + History)
network.save_dno("my_organism.dno")

# Or save just the state_dict for standard PyTorch compatibility
network.save_standard("checkpoint.pt")
```

Loading requires a **module factory** — a function that reconstructs your custom blocks by type name:

```python
from dno import DynamicNetwork
from dno.core.blueprints import SeedBlock

def my_factory(type_name):
    """Reconstructs modules by their class name."""
    if type_name == "SeedBlock":
        return SeedBlock(input_dim=128, hidden_dim=256)
    if type_name == "Sequential":
        return nn.Sequential(nn.Linear(128, 128), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(128, 10))
    # Return None to trigger automatic GPTModel fallback
    return None

loaded_network = DynamicNetwork.load_dno("my_organism.dno", module_factory=my_factory)
```

> **Note**: If the factory returns `None` or raises an exception for a module type, DNO automatically reconstructs it as a `GPTModel` Transformer block. See [Zombie Repair](#robust-persistence--zombie-repair) below.

---

## 🔧 Advanced Mechanics

### Surgical Training Control

Use `GrowthEngine` to manually direct evolution — don't wait for entropy triggers.

```python
from dno import GrowthEngine

growth_engine = GrowthEngine(network, config)

# 1. Inject a new expert lobe (forced mitosis)
# IMPORTANT: Pass the optimizer so its parameters are registered!
growth_engine.inject_layer(
    parent_tag_or_uuid="seed_cortex",
    new_tag="expert_math_v1",
    optimizer=optimizer,
    base_lr=0.001
)

# 2. Freeze everything EXCEPT the new expert
# This prevents interference during focused training
growth_engine.freeze_all_except("expert_math_v1")

# 3. Train on math dataset...
for batch in math_dataloader:
    optimizer.zero_grad()
    output = network(batch)
    loss = criterion(output, targets)
    loss.backward()
    optimizer.step()
```

### Robust Persistence & Zombie Repair

DNO is resilient to corruption and missing class definitions. If you load a brain but the factory can't reconstruct a specific layer:

1. **Automatic Fallback**: The broken layer is replaced with a generic `GPTModel` (Transformer Decoder block).
2. **Deep Scan & Repair**: After loading, a full scan identifies and replaces any `None` or broken modules.
3. **Topology Preservation**: All graph connections (edges, inputs, outputs) remain intact.

```python
# Even with a broken/incomplete factory, loading succeeds
net = DynamicNetwork.load_dno("brain.dno", module_factory=lambda t: None)
# >> [WARNING] Factory failed for SeedBlock...
# >> [REPAIR] Reconstructing as default GPTModel.
# >> [OK] Organism Resurrected.
```

### Dynamic Gradient Locking 🔒

DNO automatically manages `requires_grad` to prevent **Catastrophic Forgetting**:

| Data Type | General Core | Expert Lobes |
|-----------|:------------:|:------------:|
| **Familiar (CPT)** | ✅ Training | ❄️ Frozen |
| **Novel (SFT)** | ❄️ Frozen | ✅ Training |
| **Scratch Phase** | ✅ Training | N/A (no experts yet) |

This happens automatically inside `network.forward()` based on entropy-based novelty detection.

### Auto-Casting 🛡️

If you pass raw `LongTensor` inputs (Token IDs) to a module expecting floats:

- DNO performs a **Deep Scan** of all submodules to check for `nn.Embedding` layers.
- If an `Embedding` is found → data is preserved as `Long` (correct behavior).
- If no `Embedding` → data is auto-cast to `Float32` to prevent `dtype mismatch` errors.

### Survival Engine (Pruning) 🧹

The `SurvivalEngine` acts as the organism's immune system:

```python
from dno import SurvivalEngine

survival = SurvivalEngine(manager, config)

# Inside training loop:
# 1. Monitor utility (Information Gain via KL Divergence)
for uuid, module in manager.registry.items():
    survival.calculate_information_gain(module, input_tensor, output_tensor)

# 2. Decay dying layers' weights
survival.apply_selective_decay(optimizer)

# 3. Garbage collect dead tissue
removed = survival.garbage_collect(network)
print(f"Pruned {removed} dead layers")
```

Layers with low utility score enter a **grace period**. If they don't recover, their weights decay to zero and they're removed from the graph.
