CGI-000001 (v1.0): Seed Note — Coherence-Driven Intelligence (CDI)

This page describes Seed Note CGI-000001: Coherence-Driven Intelligence (CDI),
also referred to descriptively as “Emergent Intelligence” (EI).

Update May 2026: The original documents are available now published and listed in the Primary Artifact section below.

What this seed note does

CGI-000001 fixes naming, claim scope, and provenance pointers for the CDI/EI
demonstration work. It is a seed-level disclosure (non-enabling): it does not
attempt to provide full procedural reproducibility, and it does not make
leaderboard or SOTA claims.

How to verify

The authoritative public record is the Zenodo deposit below. The release package
includes:

  • the public Seed Note PDF (CGI-000001-SN.pdf)
  • a SHA-256 hash ledger (CGI-000001-hashes.txt)
  • a README (README.txt)

Verify by recomputing SHA-256 for the files and comparing to the hash ledger.
