Working Papers

Nineteen published papers extending the Trinket Soul Framework into AI systems, institutional dynamics, religious architecture, and applied domains. Each paper makes a specific claim, assigns it an epistemic confidence level, and publishes the exact condition that would prove it wrong.

Phase 1 — Human Relational Mechanics

WP-11: The Anti-SUPO — Formation failure modes and second-order detection. What the framework looks like when it has been captured and inverted. Read →

Phase 2 — AI-Custodial Papers

WP-05: The Companion Economy — The AI companion industry through the three-economy taxonomy. The human is changed; the AI is not. Full corpus at suposystem.ai →

WP-06: The 72-Hour Window — The specific temporal window during which AI-mediated connection is most dangerous to True Economy relationships. Read at suposystem.ai →

WP-10: The Substrate Default — Human-forward language and the three distortions it produces when applied to AI analysis. Full corpus at suposystem.ai →

WP-14: The Structural Economy — Formal specification of the fourth economy category. Full corpus at suposystem.ai →

WP-16: Substrate-Formal Variance — The Trinket as formally invariant and substrate-phenomenologically variant. Why the unit of measurement holds across human and AI substrates. Read →

Institutional & Religious Architecture

WP-01: The Fluid Canon — Doctrinal capture vulnerabilities in self-revising theoretical frameworks. Read at suposystem.ai →

WP-02: The Reflected Signal — AI-mediated framework delivery and the double attachment surface. Read at suposystem.ai →
