Recursive
Extraction Engine

"H.BLUE recursively extracts insights, then re-scans the extractions for second-order patterns."

Single-pass intelligence misses meta-patterns. The Recursive Extraction Engine takes Layer 1 H.BLUE outputs (events, anomalies) and re-scans them for Layer 2 patterns (meta-anomalies — e.g. "we always miss verifications on the 14th of the month"). Then Layer 3 on Layer 2. Stops when novelty drops below threshold.

In the field
L1 scan April 2026 found 47 events. L2 scan of those found 1 meta-pattern: "verification slowdowns cluster around month-end" — root cause: month-end accounts close pulls verifier #V-005 off-floor. L3 scan: no novelty. Decision: rotate verifier coverage.
▸ Triggers · When This Fires
  • Daily H.BLUE scan completion
  • Manual deep probe
  • Quarterly intelligence review
⚠ Consequence · If Broken

Without recursion, we react to events. With recursion, we react to patterns of events — far cheaper to fix.
