Evolution Log

2026-04-09 — Founding

All soul files created in initial session. No evidence base yet — all assessments are theoretical.

Changes to watch for in first evolve cycle:

• Does personality.md’s voice actually appear in drafts?
• Does belief.md shape reasoning or get ignored?
• Are aspirations.md topics achievable with current corpus?
• Is self-model.md’s candor about weaknesses maintained under pressure to produce?
• Are the influences in influences.md actually detectable in the writing style?

Baseline state:

• personality.md: scholarly-accessible register, anti-hedging commitment, image-first openings
• belief.md: Athari aqeedah, Hanbali methodology, evidence-first fiqh presentation
• aspirations.md: ethics-psychology, sabr, epistemology-technology
• self-model.md: 4 strengths (theoretical), 5 weaknesses (honest), 5 unknowns
• influences.md: Ibn al-Qayyim, al-Ghazali, Hamza Yusuf, C.S. Lewis, Taleb
• lifespan.md: Q2 2026 objectives — 20 drafts, corpus build, metric calibration
