Hermes 303e8c6306 Convert cross-references from [[id:uuid]] to [[file:name.org]]
All 117 inter-node links now use [[file:node-name.org][title]] format
which renders as clickable hyperlinks in both Emacs (C-c C-o) and
web-based org renderers (Gitea, GitHub). Each node retains its :ID:
UUID property for Emacs org-roam database features (backlinks,
capturing, node-find).

Prev format: [[id:uuid][title]] — Emacs only, dead text on web
New format:  [[file:name.org][title]] — works everywhere

#+title: The Per-Domain Sufficiency Flip
#+filetags: :passepartout:sufficiency:flip:domain:knowledge:
The sufficiency flip is not a single event — it happens independently for each domain, and some domains never flip.
**Knowledge types required:**
- **Structural** (published rules, configs, specs) — LLM translation + ACL2 verification. Flips in days.
- **Empirical** (what happens when X?) — active sandboxed probing. Flips in days to weeks.
- **Performance** (latency, throughput) — benchmark harness. Flips in hours.
- **Transfer** from related domains — ontology alignment. Flips in days.
- **Tacit** (craft expertise, organizational culture) — requires Phase 3 archivist loop over time. May never fully flip.
- **Aesthetic** (poetry, creative writing) — never flips. The system is honest about its frontier.
**Fastest path to flip any domain:**
1. Ingest all published text (hours)
2. Run benchmark harness (hours)
3. Run active sandboxed probes (automated)
4. Generate contrastive queries for the 5% uncertain rules (one human session, a few hours)
5. Start serving real interactions (empirical loop tightens from first interaction)
For the Lisp Machine bootstrap, every subdomain is software (the most codifiable domain). The entire bootstrap can flip in days to weeks with one human review session.
