This paper derives the formation of horizonless compact objects within the Chronoflux framework, where gravity is interpreted through the dynamics of a conserved temporal flow. Starting from the continuity law and the canonical scalar temporal sector, relativistic collapse is shown to generate temporal-hydrodynamic stress due to finite relaxation of the flow. When this stress becomes comparable to the inward gravitational term, collapse is arrested before an event horizon forms. The equilibrium configuration consists of a vacuum-like core, a finite interface located slightly outside the Schwarzschild radius, and an exterior geometry that remains close to the classical solution of general relativity. The interface produces observable signatures including gravitational-wave echoes, photon-ring modulation, and modified accretion behaviour. All results follow from the intrinsic Chronoflux formulation used throughout the Chronoflux Research Initiative preprint series and remain fully consistent with the continuity-law foundation developed in earlier work.
