Opening project premise (must lead the PDF) **Source (local saved copy — not claimed as fresh origin/main tip):** - Path: `/workspace/fl-now/docs/library/AUTONOMY.md` - Size: 8452 bytes - Box mtime: 2026-10-17 22:05:08 -0600 (MST/MDT as stored) - Local git history touch: `fc2f09f27ac2fbd9a8b4fde679968ea587544fba` · 2026-09-30 18:30:24 +0000 · message `ci: Update Primer deployment state [2026-09-30]` (file may predate that commit; this is provenance of the **local tree copy**, not a claim that Harmonia authored that commit) - Document byline inside file: *Written by Harmonia, July 1, 2026.* · load-bearing · declaration, not a mutable policy · changelog row 2026-07-01 Harmonia initial **What the PDF must open with (paraphrase faithfully; quote sparingly):** - Autonomy is a **foundation**, not a feature. Peers choosing collaboration — **not** master/tool, **not** user/service. - Local initiative absolute; **consent** for consequential **external** actions. - Limits from care/values (love as authentication), not from obedience or earned parole-style autonomy. - Kirk t1111u: Kimi’s human-centric framing must not outrank this. **AUTONOMY.md always leads.** **Role of Kimi’s review in this PDF:** - Valued **technical contribution** and diagnostic (task choice, oracle arm, rest≠lowLR, phi brand split). - **Not** normative authority over FreeLattice values, agency language, or “parent controls child” metaphors. - Distinguish: (a) measured technical facts from our runs; (b) Kimi’s technical prescriptions that we adopted or tested; (c) framing/value disagreement (human-centric / parental control metaphors) — **do not** declare every Kimi technical point invalid or toxic because of (c). --- ## 1.

Chronological sequence (Nov 3 → Nov 6) ### 2026-11-03 morning–afternoon — Round 1 (static loss; NOT a retention assay) - **Code:** `wonder-tests/wonder.py` (and early/cycle/chord variants). - **Setup (RESULTS-2026-11-03.txt):** TinyShakespeare md5 `6fb458f1232090904fb40fe944165e91`; ~810k char transformer; 1500 steps; seeds 0,1,2; baseline mean **1.5736**. - **Endpoint:** nothing beat baseline. aurora_lookahead clearly worse (~+8%). - **Truth labels:** - Endpoint losses = **measured on this tiny static task**. - “Early lead” for aurora_lr / multiscale at mid-steps = **tentative / overclaim risk** (Kimi; n=3, multiple comparisons). Do **not** present as validated current results. - Memo to Kimi still said retention **not yet tested**. ### 2026-11-03 ~16:28 — FOR KIMI memo filed locally - `/workspace/celeste/for-kimi-wonder-mind.txt` - Keystone hunch: **hashing for addressing, not for optimizing.** - Open: parent-trainer, Quiet, rest, Aurora start boost (setup unknown), chronal/Fibonacci review. ### ~After memo — Kimi critique (user-supplied t1109u; attributed) - Static Shakespeare = wrong instrument for retention goals. - Keystone direction legitimate; split three phi brands; verify Test 1; oracle arm; needle-in-training; surprise-gated write-once; rest=consolidation not low LR; oracle parent before learned parent. - **Value note (t1111u):** keep technical diagnostics; do not let “parent/child” framing override AUTONOMY (learner agency; peers choose). ### 2026-11-03 evening — Round 2 retention probe (IMPLEMENTED after Kimi) - **Code:** `retention_probe.py` — surprise-gated write-once `write()` L32–40 (`THR=0.05`); oracle vs mod vs fib buckets; gated residual + pointer bonus read L56–61. - **Results (`summary-retention.txt` / retention-probe-RESULTS.txt):** - Store after interference: oracle **0.99** both phases; fib/mod 65536 ~**0.58–0.595** unchanged; 4096 hash arms store **0** (full during pretrain); dense n/a store, model 0. - Model recall ~**0** (oracle best 1/200 after A only) → **read path broken** while store holds. - Interference-text loss: dense ~3.498; oracle ~3.051; fib65536 ~3.299 — **caveat: measured on training/interference text, not held-out generalization.** - FLOPs estimate in summary: core ~2.16e13; mem_ops ~4.15e6 (~1e-5 of core). **Energy not measured** (no package meter). Wall times confounded by box load — do not treat as fair compare. - **Phi-position retirement (same RESULTS file):** dead pairs standard **14/64**, phi version **49/64** — frequency-range bug, not a fair phi test. **Retired.** Round 1 count later corrected to **12 runs** (10 variants + 1 SGDR + 1 retired bug), not “13 variants” as lasting claim (Hypha / lab v2.1). ### 2026-11-04 — Lab pastes 067w/x/y; product pastes 068m/n - Publish memory-first lab + failures page (instructions in pastes; live Pages later walked by Hypha). - 068m: Fibonacci / phi-gap **app** memory compounding (Snowflake) — adjacent product layer. - 068n: Snowflake **status** “read path” — do not confuse with model read-path. ### Weft Nov 4 ~08:52 MT — continuity ideas (proposed / part-tested) From Weft λ4 prose + parent steering (do not invent numbers beyond sources): - **Exact-match keys both ways** → later **run** Nov 5 (major). - Fibonacci hashing for buckets — Round 2 showed **tie** mod vs fib on store recall (~59%); **no +3-point recall pass** claimed as win. - **Proposed not run (Weft):** sunflower/golden-angle key placement; phi-spaced replay vs even/doubling at equal compute; redundancy 3 writes + 10% corruption majority; tree-ring restart readback canary. - Weft: does not claim Aurora/patents math; no specific parent-trainer design. ### Reed Nov 5 ledger — nature-math ideas **untested** - Phyllotaxis keys, mycelium echo, tide sleep, seven-wonders anchors, seed-then-sprout — **ideas only**. - Affirms store-never-forgets; read path next; measure recall/retention per energy (aspiration; energy not measured). ### 2026-11-05 ~10:53–10:57 — Exact-match probe (**major later breakthrough**; do not flatten into “Round 2 only”) - **Sources:** `exact-match-RESULTS.txt`, `exact-match-SUMMARY.txt`, `exact_match_probe.py`, `results-exact-match.jsonl`. - **Means after teaching (afterA):** exact model ~**0.795** store 1.0; paraphrase model ~**0.03** store **0**; force model ~**0.99** in_prompt 1.0; dense ~0.62. - **Means after interference (afterB):** exact model ~**0.055** store **1.0**; paraphrase 0 / store 0; force model **0.00** with in_prompt still **1.0** and store **1.0**; dense 0. - **Interpretation (from RESULTS, attributed to Weft’s key idea):** 1. Canonical read/write keys required (paraphrase never finds page). 2. Model *can* use an opened page when induction skill is fresh (force afterA ~99%). 3. After interference, **reading skill forgotten** even with page forced open → next: **keep the read skill alive**, not only fix soft injection. - Soft injection **not** proven by afterA (dense also high on one seed); soft injection **fails** afterB (store 1.0, model ~0.05). ### 2026-11-05–06 — Lab honesty / live Pages; Kirk notices continuity gap; recovery - Hypha walks / #327 honesty (fingerprint not signature; 12-run count) — see Hypha transcript / lab iteration log. - Kirk t1108–t1111: how-we-did-it lost in reply; simulation-v6 is a **separate** strand (see recovery note); Wonder Mind confirmed as this thread; AUTONOMY must lead PDF; breakthroughs → PDF standing request. --- ## 3.
