Stage Diversion Advisor

Per-stage diverter timing & mass from stress-shadow physics. Recommendations target a configurable cluster efficiency.

Mass / dominant cluster (lbm)

Min mass / stage (lbm)

Max mass / stage (lbm)

Cluster efficiency by stagebar = current η · marker = projected η after diverter

Stages

Stage 10 — detail & physics knobs

Cluster efficiency 100% ≥ target 85%. No diverter needed.
