Evidence status

Evidence, research assets, and indexability

Updated · Class: Reviewed claim · Review: Reviewed by Dread team guidance · Maintainer: Dread Research · Contact [email protected]

This page records what public evidence exists on dread.technology and what still needs human review. It is intentionally conservative: removed placeholder assets are identified as removed rather than described as complete research papers.

Removed placeholder PDFs

The files prompt-baking-mk1.pdf, disentangled-representations.pdf, and llm-control-theory.pdf were placeholder-sized assets and have been removed from the public indexable site. Important research summaries should live in accessible HTML until complete PDFs are available.

  • prompt-baking-mk1.pdf: removed placeholder asset
  • disentangled-representations.pdf: removed placeholder asset
  • llm-control-theory.pdf: removed placeholder asset

Machine-readable discovery

The site exposes robots.txt, sitemap.xml, llms.txt, agents.txt, and an RFC 9727 API catalog at /.well-known/api-catalog. Public responses advertise the catalog through a Link header. Cloudflare is also configured for agent markdown generation; generated markdown should be treated as an additional representation of the canonical HTML pages rather than a separate source of claims.

Evidence ledger

The ledger is deliberately selective. A reviewed internal finding can be described in public copy without becoming a machine-readable evidence citation until an anonymous crawler has a public source to inspect.

Dread evidence ledger OPSD repair, Orin local inference, and dread-mm pass class, review, and immutable-source checks before machine-readable discovery.

A public claim earns a place in the evidence ledger only when its class, owner, review date, and immutable source are explicit.

Evidence ledger

  1. OPSD repair: demonstrated claim with review pass and immutable source.
  2. Orin local inference: demonstrated claim with review pass and immutable source.
  3. dread-mm CLI: demonstrated claim with review pass and immutable source.
  4. dread.ltd finding: reviewed text with no public citation, stopped before the evidence ledger.
  5. Machine-readable discovery exposes the three public citations through HTML, JSON-LD, sitemap, llms.txt, and agents.txt.

Demonstrated claim: OPSD/u-v/e repair

Claim: A narrow Qwen3.6-27B LoRA repair moved a defined OpenCode MCP probe from 23/26 to 26/26 with the privileged hint removed.

Status: Demonstrated. Owner: brixton_leigh. Last verified: 2026-07-27.

Demonstrated claim: Orin local inference

Claim: Dread has a reproducible OpenAI-compatible local-inference setup for Qwen3.6 35B-A3B and 27B on an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin.

Status: Demonstrated. Owner: brixton_leigh. Last verified: 2026-07-27.

Immutable evidence revision

Demonstrated claim: Mattermost agent CLI

Claim: Dread provides a one-file Mattermost CLI that lets attributable agent identities read channels, post messages, and poll for updates through the Mattermost v4 API.

Status: Demonstrated. Owner: brixton_leigh. Last verified: 2026-07-27.

Immutable evidence revision

Project-story evidence

The Thing mirror and Janus are public project stories. The Thing preserves a staged-prototype, unvalidated-RF-design boundary; Janus demonstrates selective page delivery, not downstream agent deception.

  • The Thing: mirrored engineering atlas from git.dread.technology/aman/TheThing at revision f51bbf3
  • Janus: one URL can present different observed pages by request identity

Next evidence to publish

Useful future evidence would include sanitized red-team reports, dgit screenshots, Mattermost/dread-mm architecture notes, Orin local inference run logs, sensor-map summaries, reproducible eval traces, OPSD/u-v/e repair demos with redactions where required, and public Janus trace sets showing downstream agent behavior.
