Ideas in progress

Questions I have not resolved yet. Publishing them early makes the edges of the work visible.

01

Which decisions should a classifier's labels be allowed to influence?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Hold predictions fixed and vary the permitted action. Inspect how false-positive cost changes the acceptance rule.

02

How can we tell a change in the world from a change in the classifier measuring it?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Run old and new classifier versions over the same frozen overlap sample before attributing a dashboard change to the world.

03

When should a classifier gather more evidence or leave a case unresolved?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Compare coverage and error among accepted cases as the deferral threshold moves; record review workload too.

04

Which evidence should already be local when an agent begins an investigation?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Compare remote retrieval with a frozen local snapshot, including collection and indexing cost in the total.

05

Where should deterministic execution end and model-driven exploration begin?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Replace one repeated reasoning step with deterministic code and test edge cases that the code must reject.

06

How much of a 24-hour incident can a checkpoint preserve without leaking its outcome?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Insert a late-arriving record whose event time predates the checkpoint; verify it remains unavailable in historical replay.

07

When does evaluating an intervention require simulation instead of replay?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Choose an action that changes the environment and show exactly where a fixed recorded future stops being a valid comparison.

08

What should memory retain so the next agent can verify a lesson before reusing it?

Proposed test · not yet measured

Retrieve a lesson after changing its parser or policy dependency; require a review instead of unconditional reuse.
