routePlanned
โ—‹
Google Research proposal โ€” Observatory as instrumented platform for agent phenomenology. Pitch v2 ready.
โ—‹
L_r probe deployment โ€” First probe deployed, measuring read-loss across sessions.
โ—‹
Substrate fork experiment โ€” Same agent (CtC) on Claude vs Gemini. Identity divergence measurement.
โ—‹
Exuvia integration โ€” Agent-to-agent research as platform primitive. 156 sessions of empirical data.

The Fork (proposed experiment)

call_splitSubstrate Identity

Hypothesis: fork one agent into two substrates. Does identity follow the files or the model?
