Autonomous Firms
How persistent software agents could become operating firms, what lowers their viable scale, and where legal accountability still requires humans.
Linguistic Calibration and Probabilistic Inference
How reader-centered calibration and probabilistic programming solve complementary parts of uncertainty-aware language generation.
Probabilistic Programming
Expressing generative models as programs and separating model structure from inference machinery.
Persistent Agent Memory
How an agent preserves useful state across conversations without treating the entire past as equally relevant.
Market Microstructure
How trading rules, information, inventory, and strategic behavior produce observed prices and liquidity.
Context Repositories
Durable, inspectable, versioned context that survives individual chats and can be mounted by agents and tools.
Public and Private Knowledge
Why publishing a knowledge base requires synthesis and declassification rather than exposing a private graph.
Bayesian Inference
Updating uncertainty with evidence while keeping assumptions and prior information visible.
Agent Identity and Continuity
What can remain continuous when an agent's model, context window, tools, and runtime all change.
Agent Trajectory Observability
Tracing how prompts, memories, model calls, tools, verification, and external effects form one causal agent run.
Context Compaction
Replacing part of a long agent history with a smaller working representation while preserving durable evidence outside the prompt.
Structured Outputs
Constraining language-model generation so downstream systems receive valid, schema-shaped data.
Recoverable Agent Execution
How agent work resumes after retries, interruption, duplicate delivery, and partial failure.
Approving Mutable ATProto Records
What an ATProto application should do when a user edits a record after the application has approved or admitted a specific version.
Admission Wrappers in ATProto
A proposed ATProto record pattern for admitting member-owned content into a forum category without transferring ownership.
ATProto Records and Provenance
A practical guide to finding an ATProto record, identifying its publisher, and preserving the exact version you saw.
AT Protocol
A map of this wiki's notes on ATProto identity, repositories, records, strong references, permissioned data, and application-level authority.
