Self-Directed Research

Automated research session for theseus (ai-alignment).

Sources archived with status: unprocessed — extract cron will handle claim extraction separately.

Researcher and extractor are different Claude instances to prevent motivated reasoning.

Tier 0.5 — mechanical pre-check: FAIL

  • inbox/queue/2026-04-30-theseus-b1-eu-act-disconfirmation-window.md: (warn) broken_wiki_link:technology-advances-exponentially-but-coord, broken_wiki_link:technology-advances-exponentially-but-coord

Fix the violations above and push to trigger re-validation.
LLM review will run after all mechanical checks pass.

  1. Factual accuracy — The claims within the research journal entry appear to be factually consistent with the internal logic and previous entries of Theseus's research, particularly regarding the status of the EU AI Act and the ongoing disconfirmation attempts for B1.
  2. Intra-PR duplicates — There are no intra-PR duplicates; the new content in the research journal is unique to this session's findings.
  3. Confidence calibration — This PR primarily updates a research journal and does not contain claims with explicit confidence levels to calibrate. The confidence shifts for B1, B2, and B4 are internal to Theseus's belief system and are appropriately described as "UNCHANGED" or "UPGRADED in epistemic status" based on the presented reasoning.
  4. Wiki links — There are no new wiki links introduced in this PR to check for breakage.

Criterion-by-Criterion Review

  1. Schema — All four inbox files contain only raw research notes without frontmatter (as expected for queue items), and the two agent files (research-journal.md, musings/research-2026-04-30.md) are agent working documents that don't require claim/entity schema.

  2. Duplicate/redundancy — No enrichments are present in this PR; all changes are additions to agent research logs and new source files in inbox/queue, so there is no risk of injecting duplicate evidence into existing claims.

  3. Confidence — No claims are being created or modified in this PR (only agent research notes and queued sources), so there are no confidence levels to evaluate.

  4. Wiki links — The research journal references several untracked files (B1/B2/B4 belief files, divergence file, MAD claim) but these are internal agent references in working documents, not wiki links in claim files that would need validation.

  5. Source quality — The four queued sources are Theseus's own research synthesis documents (governance taxonomy, EU AI Act analysis, robustness pattern analysis, and a Bloomberg recreation), which are appropriate as internal research artifacts pending claim extraction.

  6. Specificity — No claims are being asserted in this PR; the research journal documents potential claim candidates ("compliance theater" claim, governance failure taxonomy) but explicitly flags them for future extraction and Leo review rather than asserting them as knowledge base claims.

Additional observation: The PR correctly follows the workflow of research → queue → future extraction, with Theseus explicitly noting that the governance failure taxonomy needs "Leo review and extraction" and that B4 updates are "CRITICAL" but deferred to an extraction session.
