Standing Framework

SF-WEB-13 / Research + Joint Research / Source-backed work

Joint research for evidence-bound AI work.

Standing Framework studies evidence, authority, recovery, and review in consequential AI-assisted work.

We partner with teams that have a consequential workflow, reviewable evidence, and a decision that needs to be trusted. When the evidence supports release, we turn that material into bounded findings, reusable review objects, and public-safe research outputs.

Joint research / collaboration terms

Joint research with Standing Framework.

We collaborate on real AI-assisted work: agent runs, review loops, approval paths, recovery, source-state drift, and benchmark evidence.

Research fit

We study.

Evidence, authority, recovery, review, workflow reconstruction, and public-safe proof packets from real runs.

Partner role

You bring.

A bounded workflow or workflow set, accountable reviewer, reviewable artifacts or traces, and clear sharing boundaries.

Outputs

We produce.

A scoped collaboration can produce a research note, mechanism study, failure reconstruction, evidence packet, design-partner finding, or public-safe method artifact.

Not a fit

Not a fit.

No sponsorship wrapper, customer quote extraction, benchmark leaderboard shortcut, or market validation from local proof.

Practical first move

Start with a bounded case rather than a broad theme.

Bring the case, decision owner, reviewable evidence, hard-to-trust decision, and sharing boundary.

Research map / source to question

Current research questions.

Each topic connects a source area, research question, and planned treatment. Review the paper record for the current research position.

Metrics Are Not Authority

What may this score actually decide?

Treatment: authority-boundary evidence cards and invalid-promotion failure states.

Review paper 02
Authority Should Expire

What makes yesterday's approval unsafe today?

Treatment: lease timeline with scope, expiry, revocation, and refresh controls.

Review paper 08
Tool Calls Are the Medium

Where did the work really happen?

Treatment: human-agent-tool choreography mapped to source-state changes.

Review paper 17
Failures and Honest Stop Rules

Is blocked the same as failed?

Treatment: failure classifier and safer-next-move drill.

Review paper 19
Proof-Carrying Development

What should travel with an agent-made change?

Treatment: annotated proof receipt with missing-evidence states.

Review paper 15
Operational Graphs

How do context, evidence, authority, and verification connect?

Treatment: bounded claim-and-evidence graph.

Review paper 32
Agentic Temporal Compression

Why is retrospective distance growing?

Treatment: dual timeline comparing execution density with later reconstruction.

Review paper 31
Negative Governance Contexts

When can more context make decisions worse?

Treatment: context-on versus context-off counterexample gallery.

Review paper 07
Benchmark Evidence Packets

What did the benchmark actually test?

Treatment: matched-condition notebook with denominator and failure views.

Review paper 06
Publishability Control Plane

Why are local proof and public release different?

Treatment: observed-to-accepted-to-released state ladder.
