# Knowledge And Skill Foundation

Version `0.1.R` defines how Agrarian treats knowledge, practice, body condition,
tools, and infrastructure before those systems become heavy gameplay code.

## MVP Separation Model

Agrarian should not collapse every form of progress into one generic skill
number. The MVP separates five related but distinct drivers.

Knowledge:

- Represents what a character understands.
- Comes from observation, teaching, notes, mistakes, questions, and practice
  reflection.
- Affects judgment, recognition, safety, sequencing, and when warnings appear.
- Should help players understand why something worked or failed.

Practical experience:

- Represents practiced execution under real conditions.
- Comes from repeated action, variation, failed attempts, recovery, and doing
  the work in different weather, light, terrain, and tool conditions.
- Affects speed, consistency, yield, precision, and waste.
- Should grow slowly from use and should not replace core understanding.

Physical stats:

- Represent the body in the moment: health, stamina, hunger, thirst, body
  temperature, exhaustion, injury, sickness, age, carry load, and care history.
- Affect what a character can safely do right now.
- Should create readable pressure without becoming a hidden knowledge system.

Tools:

- Represent external capability the player can hold, equip, place, or maintain.
- Affect what actions are possible, how safe they are, how much effort they
  require, and how good the result can be.
- Should still require knowledge and practice for best outcomes.

Infrastructure:

- Represents durable world improvements such as shelter, storage, paths, wells,
  fields, workshops, firebreaks, and community systems.
- Affects baseline safety, efficiency, capacity, and resilience.
- Should reduce routine survival pressure without removing consequences from
  poor choices.

MVP rule: basic survival actions must remain possible with low knowledge and
poor tools, but outcomes should be riskier, slower, lower quality, or more
wasteful until knowledge, practice, tools, and infrastructure improve.
