- What: Reitbauer's "Alternative Hamiltonian Decomposition" archived and ingested
- Enrichment: multi-model claim updated with Reitbauer detail —
simplest collaboration method (manual copy-paste) produced simplest construction
- Knuth's assessment: "probably the simplest possible" construction
- Method: GPT 5.4 Extended Thinking + Claude 4.6 Sonnet Thinking via text relay
- Key insight: model diversity searches different solution space regardless of
orchestration sophistication

- What: 4 new claims about AI capability evidence from Knuth's Feb 2026 paper
on Hamiltonian cycle decomposition solved by Claude Opus 4.6 + Filip Stappers
- Claims:
1. Human-AI collaboration succeeds through three-role specialization (explore/coach/verify)
2. Multi-model collaboration outperforms single models on hard problems (even case)
3. AI capability and reliability are independent dimensions (solved problem but degraded)
4. Formal verification provides scalable oversight that doesn't degrade with capability gaps

- What: Updated ai-alignment/_map.md to reflect PR #49 moves (3 claims
now local, 3 in core/teleohumanity/, remainder in foundations/).
Added 2 superorganism claims from PR #47 to map. Drafted 4 gap
claims identified during foundations audit: game theory (CI),
principal-agent theory (CI), feedback loops (critical-systems),
network effects (teleological-economics).
- Why: Audit identified these as missing scaffolding for alignment
claims. Game theory grounds coordination failure analysis.
Principal-agent theory grounds oversight/deception claims.
Feedback loops formalize dynamics referenced across all domains.
Network effects explain AI capability concentration.
- Connections: New claims link to existing alignment claims they
scaffold (alignment tax, voluntary safety, scalable oversight,
treacherous turn, intelligence explosion, multipolar failure).
