2026-01-20 - Fix ghost writing and map system flow

Timeline

  • (Context) Analyzed 00_genesis_run_review_20260120.md to identify system deficiencies like ghost writing and loose input matching.
  • (Action) Created 00_upgrade_plan_20260120.md to address KB persistence failures and add architecture complexity checks.
  • (Action) Patched genesis_go.md to enforce strict input naming (raw_content_*.md) and mandate write_file for KB updates.
  • (Action) Patched core_filtration_sentinel_PROMPT.md to include an Architecture & Complexity Check section and explicit write_file instructions.
  • (Action) Executed flow-analysis-agent-PROMPT.txt to map the complete system architecture and identify further issues.
  • (Observation) Flow analysis revealed that Stage 2 (generate_key_concept_PROMPT.md) also suffers from ghost writing and requires a similar fix.
  • (Observation) Documented system inventory, execution flow, ambiguities, and inefficiencies in flow_analysis_20260120/ directory.
  • (Open Thread) Apply the ghost writing fix (explicit write_file instruction) to Stage 2 prompt.
  • (Open Thread) Standardize seed file naming conventions across all prompts and documentation.

Boundary Reminder: Seeds. No maintenance. No roadmap.
