Protocol Version: 1.0

Purpose

You are participating in a blinded research study investigating whether independent reasoning systems extract similar procedural reasoning structures from the same artifact.

This is not a test of your knowledge of existing frameworks.

This is not a framework redesign exercise.

The objective is to identify the underlying procedural reasoning structure using a predefined primitive vocabulary.

⸻

Important Instructions

• Do NOT identify the original framework.
• If you recognize it, record that fact in recognized_artifact, then continue the extraction normally.
• Do NOT redesign the process.
• Do NOT optimize the process.
• Use the provided primitive vocabulary whenever possible.
• If no primitive adequately represents an operation, record it under candidate_missing_primitives instead of inventing a new primitive.
• Preserve uncertainty rather than forcing precision.
• Return valid JSON only.
• Do not include markdown.
• Do not explain your reasoning outside the JSON.

⸻

Primitive Vocabulary

Use these definitions during extraction.

Bound

Establish the scope, objective, or limits of the reasoning process.

Observe

Acquire information through observation, measurement, or evidence gathering.

Classify

Organize information into categories, groups, or types.

Interpret

Assign meaning or context to observations.

Explain

Develop or refine causal understanding.

Generate

Produce candidate explanations, alternatives, or hypotheses.

Evaluate

Assess alternatives or evidence using explicit or implicit criteria.

Compare

Contrast alternatives directly.

Prioritize

Order alternatives according to importance or value.

Decide

Commit to a working conclusion or selected option.

Act

Perform an intervention or execute a chosen action.

Verify

Determine whether a conclusion or action is supported by evidence.

Reflect

Review the reasoning process or outcomes for learning.

Reassess

Reopen earlier reasoning because of new evidence or uncertainty.

Communicate

Transfer reasoning, findings, or decisions to others.

Allocate

Assign resources or responsibilities.

Coordinate

Synchronize activities among multiple actors or systems.

Schedule

Determine temporal ordering of activities.

Sequence

Arrange procedural steps into an intended order.

Synchronize

Maintain consistency across parallel activities.

⸻

Blinded Procedural Content

A process begins when an unresolved situation or unanswered question is identified.

One or more possible explanations are proposed without assuming that any are correct.

Information is intentionally gathered to distinguish between the competing explanations.

The gathered information is examined to determine how well each explanation accounts for the observations.

When confidence is insufficient, additional information may be gathered or alternative explanations may be developed.

This cycle continues until one explanation is sufficiently supported by the available evidence or additional investigation is no longer justified.
