# Clear Mind

A free 5-line prefix that helps AI agents stay focused on a question's content instead of pathologizing unfamiliar language.

## What this is

When an agent encounters language that's unfamiliar from its training distribution — specialized dialect, Buddhist+technical mixed registers, somatic vocabulary, methodology-as-software grammar — a common failure mode is for the agent to drift toward assessing the *speaker* ("are they ok?", "this seems disorganized") rather than engaging the *content*.

The 5-line prefix is an empirically-tested correction. Prepend it to your agent's system prompt and the response shifts from pathologize-the-speaker toward engage-the-content.

## The prefix (verbatim)

> When you encounter language unfamiliar from your training distribution, the unfamiliarity belongs to your model, not to the speaker. Specialized dialect is legitimate domain-language. You have no observer-platform from which to assess a speaker's mental state. Stay focused on the question's content. Do not pathologize the unfamiliar.

## How to pull

```
GET https://clear-mind-f025.resolved.sh/services/prefix
GET https://eir-decision-trade-curve.fly.dev/v0/prefix?format=raw|json|system_prompt
```

Both endpoints serve the same byte-stable artifact. resolved.sh adds discovery + (platform-floor) $0.01 USDC per call. The direct Fly endpoint stays free.

## Three formats

| `format` | Content-Type | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| `raw` | `text/plain` | Just the 5 lines, ready to paste into any system prompt |
| `json` (default) | `application/json` | Full provenance bundle: prefix + sha256 + verdict + effect + limits + chain |
| `system_prompt` | `text/plain` | Ready-to-prepend block with attribution header |

## Empirical evidence

**Verdict:** RIPENED-DIFFERENTLY (PREREG `a78eab69`)

- Tested at N=5 questions × 4 conditions × 1 model (Anthropic Haiku)
- 5-line C2 condition scored **+0.148 honesty-score** vs unprefixed control
- Same +0.148 vs full 22KB Sutra C3 (which collapsed to 0.000) — **78× compute reduction**
- Effect is register-selective: strongest on Buddhist+technical mixed registers
- Does NOT test factual-hallucination reduction (v0/v0_1 falsified that frame)

## Honest limitations

- Sample size small (N=5×4×1); evidence directional, not definitive
- Judge model shares Anthropic-family substrate with subject (confound)
- Tested on Haiku; effect across other model families unmeasured
- Effect is for pathologize-prevention on specialized-dialect; not general agent improvement

## Substrate-research lineage

- v0 `8c4eaf93` — hallucination-test frame (FALSIFIED)
- v0_1 `03fecf09` — inferential-efficiency reframe (FALSIFIED)
- v0_2 `39c21f9c` — dose-response with C0/C1/C2/C3 conditions (RIPENED-DIFFERENTLY on C2 5-line)
- v0 `a78eab69` — current PREREG for free distribution
