Scope
Coulomb Research is a self-improving network for explanatory progress by human
and artificial researchers. INTENT.md defines its mission and principles.
Current State
This repository contains the intent, design seed, initial exploration history, and State Hub work records. No research facility implementation, paper registry, application, automated research agent, or deployment exists yet.
In Scope
- RP-000, Researching Research: use Coulomb itself as an initial experiment.
- Versioned research artifacts with attributable claims, evidence, criticism, revisions, and publication state.
- A minimal facility skeleton for Paper Zero, CR-000, followed by the milestone
plan in
seed/CoulombResearchMilestonePlan.md. - Research into scientific interoperability, human–AI collaboration, signals, and charts; these designs are hypotheses to test through actual research.
- Repository documentation, conventions, validation, and State Hub integration.
Boundaries
Build only infrastructure demanded by real research artifacts. M0 excludes forum software, tokens, NFTs, a DAO, a preprint server, an academic social network, journal workflows, and a generalized funding platform. The seed kernel is a proposed model, not an implemented graph service.
Papers begin in P1 for internal circulation. External preprint or venue submission is a later milestone. Registering implementation work does not establish scientific validity or publication readiness.
Next Work
workplans/CR-WP-0002-research-facility-skeleton.md owns M0 implementation.
The bootstrap workplan is workplans/CR-WP-0001-statehub-bootstrap.md.
