# Coulomb Research
|
|
|
|
Coulomb Research is an open, self-improving protocol and community for co-creation science.
|
|
|
|
Its purpose is to make research increasingly machine-native, institution-compatible, and publicly discoverable without inheriting unnecessary institutional machinery from traditional science.
|
|
|
|
The core idea is simple:
|
|
|
|
> Questions are open. Knowledge is forkable. Evidence is inspectable. Contributions are attributable. Criticism is permissionless. Resources are programmable. Actors may be human or artificial. The protocol itself is research.
|
|
|
|
## Core documents
|
|
|
|
- [`INTENT.md`](../INTENT.md) — mission, boundaries, principles, and success criteria.
|
|
- [`CoulombResearchKernel.md`](CoulombResearchKernel.md) — minimal cybernetic research kernel.
|
|
- [`PublicationInterface.md`](PublicationInterface.md) — inbound digestion and outbound paper publication.
|
|
- [`ResearchSignals.md`](ResearchSignals.md) — observable signals for attention, influence, support, reuse, and generativity.
|
|
- [`ResearchCharts.md`](ResearchCharts.md) — chart, certification, and relevance-marketing system.
|

|
Traditional papers, journals, conferences, peer-review workflows, and grants are treated primarily as interoperability surfaces or optional projections, not as core ontology.

|
## Initial status
|
|
|
|
This repository is a design and research seed. The documents are intended to be revised through use, criticism, implementation, and empirical feedback.
