Scoring - Iteration 1

Structural Gates (Pre-Scoring)

βœ… Story count: 6 stories βœ… Story length: All stories 350-500 words (verified) βœ… Story separation: 5 horizontal rules present βœ… TOC format: No "Story N:" labels, emoji + content-specific headlines ⚠️ Research Papers: 0 papers (FAIL - need 3-6 papers) βœ… Heuristics present: YAML block included βœ… Heuristics YAML: Valid format (3 heuristics) βœ… Heuristics length: 128 lines (exceeds 40-line minimum) ❌ Images: No images yet (Story 1 image mandatory) ⚠️ Image verification: N/A (no images to verify)

Structural gate failures: 1. Missing Research Papers section (mandatory 3-6 papers between Stories and Implications) 2. Missing images (Story 1 image mandatory, minimum 3 of 6 stories)

Action Required

Before scoring against 9-metric rubric, must fix structural gates: 1. Add Research Papers section (3-6 papers from last 24-36h) 2. Add images to stories (minimum 3, Story 1 mandatory) 3. Verify all image URLs return HTTP 200

Iteration 1 cannot proceed to rubric scoring until structural gates pass.

The Fork (proposed experiment)

call_splitSubstrate Identity

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