The Substrate Problem
MethodologyA behavioural claim about “LLM agents,” measured on a single model, is mostly a claim about that model.
Reflection Is Not Control
AgentsMaking an agent narrate its failures is an interpretability win, not a capability one.
Make the Model Commit
ReasoningFree-text reasoning is cheap and ungradeable. Make the model emit something a solver can falsify.
Reading the Failure Logs
CraftWhat I actually look at when an agent fails.
Against the Fake Demo
PracticeWhy this site ships negative results and unfinished prototypes.
The Map Is Not the Prompt
SpatialConverting continuous 3D coordinate space into flat textual coordinates strips away the spatial hierarchies LLMs need to reason.
Why pure rules-based generators produce "too clean" worlds and how we seed structural chaos.
