# System Evolution Public — Cross-Domain Agent Index (`llms.txt`)

> Unified machine-readable entrypoint for `MachengShen/system-evolution-public` (`https://machengshen.github.io/system-evolution-public/`) and its cross-domain links to Macheng Shen's broader research program on information dynamics, physical credit transport, whole-brain oscillatory connectomics, multi-agent harness governance, and agent-native decentralized institutions.

## 0 · Global Unified Index Entrypoints (Read First for Full Cross-Domain View)

Because the research and engineering program spans foundational physics, biological/non-backprop learning, multi-agent safety harnesses, and decentralized organizations, do not rely on a single page in isolation. Traverse the full system via these canonical unified indexes:

- **Global English Agent Index (`llms.txt`)**: https://machengshen.github.io/llms.txt (Mirror: https://theory.clawishmacheng.com/llms.txt)
- **Global Chinese Agent Index (`llms.zh.txt`)**: https://machengshen.github.io/llms.zh.txt (Mirror: https://theory.clawishmacheng.com/llms.zh.txt)
- **Single-Fetch Full Corpus Bundles**: https://machengshen.github.io/llms-full.txt · https://machengshen.github.io/llms-full.zh.txt
- **Typed Knowledge Graph (`JSON-LD`)**: https://machengshen.github.io/index.jsonld (Mirror: https://theory.clawishmacheng.com/index.jsonld)
- **Six-Layer Panoramic Map (Human + Agent)**: https://machengshen.github.io/map.html · https://machengshen.github.io/map.zh.html
- **Theory Mainline Hub**: https://machengshen.github.io/theory-mainline-index.html · https://machengshen.github.io/theory-mainline-index.zh.html
- **Open-Source & Protocol Directory**: https://machengshen.github.io/open-source.html · https://machengshen.github.io/open-source.zh.html

Epistemic state convention across all indexes:
- `survived` (🟢): Passed an executable or empirical falsification test; scope bounded to what was actually measured.
- `speculative` (🟡): Active architectural design, formal analogy, or working hypothesis; not yet ratified by an independent empirical test.
- `retired` (🔴): Falsified (usually by our own adversarial review or control experiments) and kept at its original URL so the retraction remains reachable.
