Resilience & Stress Testing
PromptAntifragileEngine
File: PromptAntifragileEngine.cs
Inspired by Nassim Taleb's Antifragile, this engine stress-tests prompts under progressive stressor intensity and classifies them on a four-level spectrum:
| Class | Behavior Under Stress |
|---|---|
| Fragile | Performance degrades disproportionately |
| Robust | Performance stays roughly constant |
| Resilient | Degrades but recovers after stress removal |
| Antifragile | Actually improves under moderate stress |
Sub-engines: StressorGenerator, StressResponseTracker, FragilityClassifier, BreakpointDetector, RecoveryAnalyzer, HardeningRecommender, InsightGenerator.

engine.ApplyStressor("summarizer", StressorType.InputNoise, StressIntensity.Heavy);
// Get classification and dose-response curve
