v1.8.0 — Three Frontiers
Three Frontiers: AI reliability that compounds
Every AI output verified. Every correction recorded. Every mistake trains the system.
GROUND — Machine verifies
5-tier execution verification: diff, syntax, imports, tests, runtime. Receipts logged to .brain/verification_log.jsonl.
ALIGN — Human corrects
One-call corrections via nucleus_align. Each correction writes a verdict, records a delta, creates a DPO training pair, and emits an event. The missing piece that closes the loop.
COMPOUND — System learns
Deltas measure the gap between intent and reality. Recurring patterns become strategy engrams. Negative deltas become training signal.
What's new in 1.8.0
- Three Frontiers loop fully wired — GROUND/ALIGN/COMPOUND events fire and feed each other
- Ambient health footer — every tool response shows
[frontiers: GROUND N | ALIGN N | COMPOUND N] brain://healthresource — IDE sidebar visibility for frontier counts- 7 compounding arteries — brief→engram, heartbeat→tasks, orchestrator←engrams, triggers→events
- Delta primitives — Jaccard similarity, pattern extraction, reinvestment into strategy
- Quality grades — copper/silver/gold/platinum weighting on training pairs
- 6 business events — growth gates, content performance, distribution signals
- Weekly synthesis — unified convergence view across all dimensions
- Claude Code hook — GROUND Tier 1-2 on every file edit, pre-commit hook blocks broken code
