OpenInterp Registry

Public index of mechanistic-interpretability publications submitted via openinterp-mcp.

Each entry references a HuggingFace dataset (artifacts), a Zenodo DOI (citation), and a methodology-check verdict from the Causality Protocol (paper-6).

Layout

registry/
├── index.json                    ← machine-readable index (this is what openinterp.org reads)
├── schema.json                   ← JSON schema for entries
├── atlas/<year>/<sha>.json       ← general atlas entries (probe results, observations)
├── replications/<paper>/<sha>.json ← replications of published papers
├── probebench/<sha>.json         ← submissions to ProbeBench leaderboard
├── contributors/<handle>.json    ← auto-generated per-contributor index
├── schemas/                      ← OpenInterp Eval Standard v0.1 (Six Diagnostics)
│   ├── probe_card.json           ← documents a probe + mandatory baselines
│   ├── causal_report.json        ← output of Six Diagnostics protocol
│   ├── intervention_trace.json   ← record of a steering/patching experiment
│   └── interp_card.json          ← per-feature interpretation + autointerp provenance
└── failed-replications/          ← Failed-Replication Registry — claims walked back
    ├── README.md                 ← entry template + failure-mode taxonomy
    └── <slug>.md                 ← one entry per walked-back claim

How entries land

1. Researcher runs openinterp-mcp against their Colab session, gets a result
2. Researcher invokes the /publish skill (or calls openinterp_mcp.publish.publish())
3. The publish pipeline:
   • Creates a HF dataset under openinterp-community/atlas-<slug>
   • Optionally creates a Zenodo deposit (free DOI)
   • Opens a PR against this repo with a new entry under atlas/<year>/<sha>.json
4. CI (when wired up) runs the Causality Protocol on the submitted artifacts via Claude-Code-as-judge
5. If methodology check passes (verdict ∈ {causal, weak-causal, epiphenomenal-* (honest)}), PR auto-merges

Adding a manual seed entry

For the bootstrap phase (before the publish pipeline is fully wired), entries can be added by hand:

1. Fork this repo
2. Add a JSON file under the appropriate path matching schema.json
3. Run python -m openinterp_mcp.publish.manifest --validate path/to/entry.json locally
4. Append a one-line summary to index.json
5. Open a PR
