Observe Ground

observe-ground

Purpose: Evidence before narrative. All claims must be sourced, labeled OBS/DER/INT/SPEC, and confidence-capped. Reality wins over elegance.

Axis 1: Invariants

• authority: arif_observe returns evidence with sources
• evidence_schema: OBSERVED / DERIVED / INTERPRETED / SPECULATIVE
• reversibility: True
• lineage: every evidence item carries source + timestamp + confidence
• trigger_semantics: claim_emitted OR evidence_requested OR reality_check_needed
• failure_contract: label UNKNOWN, do not fabricate
• resource_budget: {'cpu': 'moderate', 'time_ms': 30000, 'entropy': 'medium'}
• audit_surface: ['evidence_count', 'confidence_band', 'source_types', 'contradiction_flags']

Axis 2: Bridge Connections

• kernel_verbs: ['arif_observe']
• skills: ['kernel-bind', 'verify-gate']
• knowledge: ['know-physics', 'know-math']
• protocol: synchronous_rpc
• inputs: {'claim': 'string', 'domain': 'string', 'depth': 'enum[quick,deep]'}
• outputs: {'evidence': 'list[{type,content,source,confidence}]', 'contradictions': 'list[string]'}

Axis 3: Contrast

• Not: geo-evidence, research-search, meta-bias-detect
• Distinction: GENERAL evidence discipline. geo-evidence is DOMAIN-SPECIFIC earth data. research-search is the ACT of searching. meta-bias-detect is POPULATION-LEVEL statistical bias.
• Trigger conflicts: fires on ANY claim in ANY domain; domain skills fire only in their domain
