Claude Code completed the prime-Sidon spectral detection test:
- 35 test cases
- 0/35 significant after Bonferroni correction
- Adversarial review caught a tautology in original methodology
- Null hypothesis properly added
- Negative finding is properly bounded
ENE database: session prime-sidon-negative-001 (promoted)
GitHub: commit a0d95049
This is a third measured data point for the octagon:
- Sidon sets: YES (4/4)
- Graph coloring: YES (Hoffman)
- Prime distribution: NO (0/35) ← NEW
- Graph isomorphism: NO (cospectral)
- Text: NO (3.088 b/B)
The octagon is NOT universal. It works for some problems and
fails for others. The research question: what determines which
problems have spectral signatures?
New folder: docs/living/ — for goals that change daily, not stable
findings (those stay in docs/research/).
Documents:
- README.md: rules for living docs (overwrite freely, one sentence
per target, link to findings, honesty tag)
- TARGETS.md: 5 active targets (invariant geometry, reaction primes,
merged O(1), formal cleanup, encoder fidelity) + 3 dead + 3 candidate
- PROJECT_MAP.md: what SilverSight IS right now (not what it was)
- MILESTONES.md: 5 near-term milestones with success criteria
(3-SAT spectral test, cmix SVD, SLOS eigenvalue products,
CRT hachimoji pairing, reaction prime proof)
- OPEN_QUESTIONS.md: 8 unanswered questions
- DIRECTION_LOG.md: 5 direction changes from this session, with
the reason for each
Living docs rules:
- No measurement required (goals, not findings)
- Overwrite freely (git history preserves old versions)
- One sentence per target
- Link to docs/research/ for backing evidence
- Honesty tag: MEASURED / OPEN / SPECULATIVE
