Replaced every bottom-of-section 'See also:' block with inline Org-mode file: links at the first natural mention in body text. All 29 files across the economics directory now use wiki-style inline cross-references rather than standalone reference blocks.

**Likely patentable:**
|
|
- Probabilistic-deterministic split with deterministic gates between LLM proposal and execution (vs every competitor using prompt-based guardrails)
|
|
- Foveal-peripheral context model with Org-tree structured retrieval (targets 2,000-4,000 tokens)
|
|
- Merkle-tree memory with copy-on-write snapshots and operation-level undo/redo
|
|
- Gate-to-fact bootstrap with sufficiency criterion (mechanically extracting facts from gate stack data structures)
|
|
- Macro-layer-as-skill bootstrapping architecture (theorem-proving as hot-reloadable skills)
|
|
|
|
**Likely not patentable (known techniques):**
|
|
- ACL2 itself (decades old)
|
|
- Screamer for consistency checking (obvious application)
|
|
- Hot-reloadable skills (40 years old)
|
|
- Org-mode as a data format
|
|
|
|
**Strongest single claim:** The specific combination of probabilistic model + deterministic zero-token safety gates + Merkle memory + symbolic engine with sufficiency criterion. Each element is known; the combination is novel and non-obvious.

**Counterargument:** A patent examiner will argue these are standard OS microkernel architecture, locality of reference, content-addressed storage, and capability-based security applied to an AI agent. The defense: they have never been *combined* in an AI agent, producing emergent effects no single principle produces. These patents would feed into a [[file:licensing.org][licensing]] strategy and create [[file:moats.org][moats]] against competitors.
