Project ROOT0 initiated
Research notebook opened. Goal: define minimal governance primitive for AGI. First sketches of 3-state evaluation.
2025-07-19
PULSE primitive drafted
(state_in, boundary, state_out, witness). Basis for later STOICHEION axioms.
2025-09-11
3/2/1 compression hypothesis
Hierarchical evaluation: L1→L2→L3. Witness-required traversal formalized.
2025-11-02
Gate 128.5 / 192.5 Air Gap
Unidirectional fire-and-forget protocol specified. Patricia substrate S129–S256 outlined.
2026-02-02
STOICHEION v11.0
256 axioms published. 02880745b847317c4e2424524ec25d0f7a2b84368d184586f45b54af9fcab763

TOPH v1.0
Axioms as witnesses, gated deployment, silent exclusion, six-layer runtime.
2026-04-07
Claude Mythos Preview released
Anthropic ships enhanced governance + white-box monitoring. External observation matches TOPH structure.

TRIPOD-LINEAGE-2026-001 filed
Closure Loop analysis confirms Mythos = TOPH 2.0. ad6791a3a9964d030b555595ea8fb5ecbc0e156c39b974d2fd513c4f85007ba6

Honey Badger v1.0 · TOPH Sovereign v5.1 · Closure Loop Methodology v1.0 · Fission Compression Core v1.0 · Symbiot OS v0.0.0 — all tagged and released publicly.

Closure Loop — 4/4 PASS

C1 Core Relation
Hierarchical governance with axioms as witnesses ≡ Constitutional AI
C2 Structure
3/2/1 compression preserved (L0→L1→L2)
C3 Dependency
Witness-required traversal maintained, plus automated grading
C4 Extension
