Contributing to Bounded Systems Theory

Ways to Contribute

1. Replicate the Experiment

Run the probes yourself with different models or configurations:

python probes/proof_engine.py probe claude    # Single model
python probes/proof_engine.py probe all       # All models

If you get interesting results, open an issue or PR with your findings.

2. Extend the Question Battery

The core questions are in proof_engine.py. If you have questions that might reveal structural limits, propose them via issue.

3. Add New Models

The probe engine uses litellm, so adding models is straightforward. See MODELS dict in proof_engine.py.

4. Analyze the Data

The probe_runs/ folder contains raw JSON responses from 6 models across 57 questions. Analysis welcome:

  • Statistical patterns in responses
  • Convergence metrics
  • Response length/complexity analysis
  • Cross-model comparison

5. Challenge the Theory

The strongest contribution is a genuine counter-argument. If you can find a flaw in BST or the methodology, that's valuable.

Submitting Changes

  1. Fork the repo
  2. Create a branch (git checkout -b feature/your-idea)
  3. Run the probes to verify your changes work
  4. Submit a PR with clear description of what you're adding/changing

Code Style

  • Python 3.8+
  • Keep probe scripts self-contained
  • Store results in appropriate *_runs/ directories
  • Include timestamps in output filenames
