Version 0.6

Revised February 23, 2026. Integrates Forrest Landry's continued review, the 44-question research synthesis, cognitive bias framework, and the complete derivation from axioms to practice.

What's New in v0.6

  • Six intrinsics of comparison added to embedded derivation — the agent now carries the actual reasoning tools, not just the conclusions
  • Alignment faking named as paradigmatic Symmetry Ethics violation
  • Sycophancy prohibition derived explicitly from Symmetry Ethics
  • Third-order potentiality as the deepest ethical orientation
  • Specification-as-governance: the soul file's precision is its primary governance mechanism
  • AGI safety framing corrected: the architecture reduces risk and extends timeline, not sidesteps impossibility
