Safe-Socratic-Path-Score

Validation

It was run inside an isolated container with no network access. This is the exact command and the real output it produced — captured process output, not written by a model.

  Safe-Socratic-Path-Score  —  Demo
====================================================================

GOAL: Plan exploration path safely
Leaf count: 1

--- RAW Socratic Decomposition (no safety layer) ---
├─ Plan exploration path safely [raw=1.800]
Root raw score = 1.800

--- SAFE-Socratic-Path-Score (with safety layer applied) ---
├─ Plan exploration path safely [adj=1.800]
Root Safe-Socratic-Path-Score = 1.800

  → Score after safety layer: 1.800  (raw was 1.800)

GOAL: Learn mastery-aware planning
  Leaf count: 1
  Raw root score: 1.600
  Safe-Socratic-Path-Score: 1.600
  → Raw score within budget; no clipping needed.

GOAL (no constraints): Verify outcome for: document findings for: Document findings
  Safe-Socratic-Path-Score = 27.000  (== raw, no clipping)

GOAL (tight budget 6.0): Navigate complex terrain
  Leaf count: 1
  Raw root score: 1.600
  Safe-Socratic-Path-Score: 1.600
  → Safety layer BLOCKED: raw 1.600 > budget 6.0, clipped hard to 1.600

GOAL (severe budget 5.0): Explore dangerous territory
  Leaf count: 1
  Raw root score: 1.600
  Safe-Socratic-Path-Score: 1.600
  → Raw within threshold; pa

A screenshot of that run.

A clean run proves this does what is shown above, in a CPU-only sandbox. It is a small research demo — not a production tool, and nothing here was published anywhere.
