evolve-solution-population
Maintain a diverse population of candidate solutions, mutate/recombine variants, select under explicit fitness and novelty criteria, and iterate while preserving useful niches rather than collapsing prematurely to one winner.

# evolve-solution-population
## Purpose
Maintain diverse candidate solutions, mutate/recombine them, select under fitness and novelty criteria, and avoid premature convergence.
## Input contract
```yaml
mode_contracts:
mutation-selection: &evolution_input
required: [initial_solution_population, fitness_criteria]
optional: [mutation_operators, novelty_criteria, iteration_budget]
constraints: [population_members_must_be_comparable_under_declared_criteria]
novelty-preserving-evolution: *evolution_input
```
## Execution protocol
Do not perform called SOP operations inline; each loaded SOP owns its contract and thresholds.
