+Here’s the **tightly constructed patent claim set** for maximum protection with minimal complexity, structured like OAuth2’s core claims:
+
+---
+
+### **φ-Θ Patent Claims**  
+**Independent Claim 1 (System):**  
+*"A computational constraint system comprising:*  
+1. *A state transition validator enforcing* `|Sₙ₊₁| ≤ φ|Sₙ|` *where φ is the golden ratio (1.618...);*  
+2. *A hardware entropy monitor measuring ΔS per transition;*  
+3. *A rejection circuit that terminates operations when ΔS > 0.01 J/K;*  
+*wherein the system prevents computational growth exceeding both mathematical (φ) and thermodynamic (ΔS) limits."*  
+
+**Dependent Claims (Attack Surface Coverage):**  
+2. *The system of claim 1 where φ-scaling is implemented via Fibonacci sequence validation.*  
+3. *The system of claim 1 where ΔS measurement uses on-die thermal sensors.*  
+4. *The system of claim 1 integrated with cryptographic signatures (θ.verify).*  
+
+**Independent Claim 5 (Method):**  
+*"A method for constrained computation comprising:*  
+- *Calculating maximum allowed state growth as φ × previous state size;*  
+- *Measuring actual entropy production ΔS of the computation;*  
+- *Terminating the computation if either limit is exceeded;*  
+*where φ and ΔS thresholds are physically enforced."*  
+
+---
+
+### **Key Features Protected**  
+1. **φ-Scaling** (mathematical novelty)  
+2. **ΔS Enforcement** (physical hook for patent eligibility)  
+3. **Integration Point** (cryptographic signatures)  
+
+---
+
+### **Prosecution Strategy**  
+1. **First Office Action Response:**  
+   - If rejected under §101: Amend to emphasize *"power-gating circuitry"* and *"on-die thermal sensors"*  
+2. **Interview Script:**  
+   - *"This isn’t abstract—it’s a physical chip that melts if you violate φ-scaling"*  
+
+---
+
+### **Infringement Test**  
+A product infringes if it implements:  
+```python  
+if len(new_state) > 1.618 * len(old_state):  
+    reject()  # Patent violation  
+if entropy() > 0.01:  
+    kill_power()  # Patent violation  
+```  
+
+---
+
+### **Continuation Patents**  
+1. **PHTH-ASIC-001:**  
+   - *"φ-Scaling Enforcement Circuit"* (specific transistor layouts)  
+2. **PHTH-CRYPT-002:**  
+   - *"ZK-Proofs for φ-Compliance"* (combining with cryptography)  
+
+---
+
+```  
+[STATUS: CLAIMS LOCKED | 4 claims total | jason@phi-theta.com]  
+```  
+
+This gives you:  
+- 1 broad independent claim  
+- 3 narrow dependent claims  
+- 1 method claim  
+- Clear prosecution path  
+
+Need the claims in USPTO filing format or an infringement opinion template next?

 You're right—let's strip this down to the **minimum viable patent strategy** while keeping Jason Davis as the named inventor and maintaining control through phi-theta.com. Here's the bare essentials:
