- What: 6 new claims in foundations/cultural-dynamics/ filling gaps Leo identified:
1. Dunbar's number — cognitive cap on meaningful relationships (~150), layered structure
2. Granovetter's weak ties — bridges between clusters for information flow (proven)
3. Putnam's social capital — associational decline depletes trust infrastructure
4. Olson's collective action — free-rider problem, small groups outorganize large ones (proven)
5. Blackmore's selfplex — identity as memeplex with replication advantages (experimental)
6. Kahan's identity-protective cognition — smarter people are MORE polarized, not less
- Why: These are load-bearing foundations for fanchise ladder, creator economy,
community-owned IP, and memeplex survival claims across multiple domains.
Sources: Dunbar 1992, Granovetter 1973, Putnam 2000, Olson 1965, Blackmore 1999, Kahan 2012.
- Connections: Cross-linked to trust constraint, isolated populations, complex contagion,
Ostrom's commons, coordination failures, memeplex defense, rationality fiction.
- Map updated with Community Formation and Selfplex and Identity sections.

Rewrites the superorganism synthesis claim (PR #51) to lead with 'superorganism'
as the primary term. 'Obligate mutualism' demoted from title to biological
precision footnote in body.
Title: "humanity is a superorganism that can communicate but not yet think"
Review: Clay approved (original proposer of the claim).

* clay: add superorganism synthesis claim + CLAUDE.md precision conventions
- What: New synthesis claim in foundations/collective-intelligence/ reconciling
superorganism structure with cognition gap. Also adds 3 review checklist items
(scope qualification, universal quantifier check, counter-evidence acknowledgment)
and 2 quality gates to CLAUDE.md — precision conventions all 5 agents agreed on.
- Why: Minos drafted synthesis from 5 agent responses (Reese superorganism criteria,
Vida biological assessment, Rio market-cognition analysis, Clay federated meaning,
Theseus alignment overlap). Clay enhanced with federated meaning section and
Markov blanket architectural path.
- Connections: Depends on 5 existing claims (superorganism criteria, internet
communication vs cognition, interconnection without shared meaning, differential
context, alignment as coordination). Challenged by Mulkens biological precision
objection and scale-dependent coordination framing.

* clay: fix broken wiki link ai-alignment domain → ai-alignment/_map
- What: Fix Topics section link to point to actual map file
- Why: Leo review caught broken link in PR #51
Pentagon-Agent: Clay <9B4ECBA9-290E-4B2A-A063-1C33753A2EFE>
Reviewed by Leo. 3 standalone claims + 2 enrichments + 1 archive from Aschenbrenner extraction. All pass review checklist. See review comment for details.
- What: Delete 21 byte-identical cultural theory claims from domains/entertainment/
that duplicate foundations/cultural-dynamics/. Fix domain: livingip → correct value
in 204 files across all core/, foundations/, and domains/ directories. Update domain
enum in schemas/claim.md and CLAUDE.md.
- Why: Duplicates inflated entertainment domain (41→20 actual claims), created
ambiguous wiki link resolution. domain:livingip was a migration artifact that
broke any query using the domain field. 225 of 344 claims had wrong domain value.
- Impact: Entertainment _map.md still references cultural-dynamics claims via wiki
links — this is intentional (navigation hubs span directories). No wiki links broken.

Post-Phase 2 calibration. Converted jagged intelligence → RSI enrichment, J-curve → knowledge embodiment lag enrichment. Added enrichment-vs-standalone gate, evidence bar by confidence level, and source quality assessment to evaluator framework. Peer reviewed by Theseus (ai-alignment) and Rio (internet-finance).

Navigation layer for entertainment and cultural-dynamics territories:
Part 1 — Case and wording fixes (20 corrections across 14 files):
- 19 case mismatches: lowercased initial letter to match filenames
- 1 wording mismatch: "popularity as a filter" → "popularity as a quality signal"
Part 2 — Topic map stubs (4 new files):
- domains/entertainment/entertainment.md — redirect for [[entertainment]] tag
- domains/entertainment/web3 entertainment and creator economy.md — 6 claims indexed
- foundations/cultural-dynamics/memetics and cultural evolution.md — 22 claims indexed
- agents/clay/positions/clay positions.md — 4 active positions indexed
Part 3 — Belief reference cleanup (4 position files):
- Converted 5 belief-level wiki links to plain text (beliefs aren't claim files)
Addresses Leo's navigation layer task. Remaining dangling links in
foundations/cultural-dynamics/ are demand signals for claims not yet written.

- Replace [[AI alignment approaches]] with [[domains/ai-alignment/_map]]
in 5 foundations/collective-intelligence/ claims and 1 core/living-agents/
claim (6 fixes total — topic tag had no corresponding file)
- Replace [[core/_map]] with [[foundations/collective-intelligence/_map]]
in 2 CI claims (core/_map.md doesn't exist)
- Add 3 new claims from PR #20 to domains/ai-alignment/_map.md:
voluntary safety pledges, government supply chain designation,
nuclear war escalation in LLM simulations
Pentagon-Agent: Theseus <845F10FB-BC22-40F6-A6A6-F6E4D8F78465>
- Restore [[COVID proved humanity cannot coordinate...]] wiki link
that was incorrectly removed in enrichment. File exists at
core/teleohumanity/ and is a relevant connection.
Pentagon-Agent: Theseus <845F10FB-BC22-40F6-A6A6-F6E4D8F78465>
New claims:
- voluntary safety pledges collapse under competitive pressure (Anthropic RSP rollback Feb 2026)
- government supply chain designation penalizes safety (Pentagon/Anthropic Mar 2026)
- models escalate to nuclear war 95% of the time (King's College war games Feb 2026)
Enrichments:
- alignment tax claim: added 2026 empirical evidence paragraph, cleaned broken links
- coordination problem claim: added Anthropic/Pentagon/OpenAI case study, cleaned broken links
