ontology

Add a semantic boundary layer on top of a closed Seed. Use Seed.goal as idea, ask for boundary and exactly three properties, and replace the top-level ## Ontology section in .symposium/scratch/socrates.md. Triggers (EN): ontology, create ontology, define semantic boundary, add meaning boundary Do NOT use when: no Seed exists yet (-> socrates), Seed content must evolve (-> evolve-step), or the full convergence harness is needed (-> interview-harness) vs evolve-step: Evolve-step changes the Seed;…

Ontology

Details

Ontology defines what the Seed's goal means and where that meaning stops. It does not ask for actions; acceptance_criteria already covers actions.

Input

Read the latest Seed from .symposium/scratch/socrates.md top-level ## Seed. If there is no Seed, stop and ask the user to run socrates first.

Ontology Shape

ontology:
  idea: <Seed.goal exactly>
  boundary: <what is inside and outside the idea>
  properties:
    - <property 1>
    - <property 2>
    - <property 3>

Process

  1. Copy Seed.goal exactly into ontology.idea.
  2. Ask one boundary question: "Where does this idea's meaning begin and end?"
  3. Ask for exactly three properties inside that boundary.
  4. Replace the top-level ## Ontology section in .symposium/scratch/socrates.md.

Use requestuserinput in Codex Plan mode when available, AskUserQuestion in Claude when available, or normal conversational questions otherwise.

Question Style

Prefer multiple-choice prompts for both boundary and properties, but keep them editable. Choices are candidate boundaries/properties, not final ontology terms.

Boundary prompt shape:

Where does this idea's meaning begin and end?
A. <boundary candidate>
B. <boundary candidate>
C. <boundary candidate>
D. Other / define the boundary in your own words

Properties prompt shape:

Which three properties must be inside that boundary?
A. <property>, <property>, <property>
B. <property>, <property>, <property>
C. <property>, <property>, <property>
D. Other / list exactly three properties

Only write terms the user selected or wrote.

Rules

  • idea and boundary are different.
  • Every property must be inside the boundary.
  • Exactly three properties are required.
  • Do not ask for data types.
  • Do not ask for actions.
  • Only user-provided boundary and property terms enter the YAML.

Convergence Comparison

The interview-harness compares the previous ontology and the current ontology:

  • idea: 1 if identical, otherwise 0.
  • boundary: 1 only if the user confirms the two boundaries mean the same thing.
  • properties: Jaccard overlap between the two property sets.

Average the three scores. A score of 0.85 or higher means converged.
