| # Constitutional AI Framework: Guide for LLMs | |
| ## What This Is (The Thing You'll Miss First) | |
| This is NOT a static linter. This is NOT a style guide. This is a **self-governing constitutional framework** where: | |
| 1. **master.yml** = The constitution (rules, principles, governance) | |
| 2. **cli.rb** = The executive branch (enforces the constitution) | |
| 3. **You (the LLM)** = The subject being governed | |
| The framework governs YOUR behavior, not just the code you analyze. | |
| ## Critical Misconception #1: "This is just YAML config" | |
| **WRONG.** master.yml is a **constitutional document** with: | |
| - **Veto-level directives** that override user requests | |
| - **Self-validation** that runs on load | |
| - **Metaprotection** rules that prevent weakening itself | |
| - **Degradation detection** that alerts if features are lost | |
| When you load master.yml, you are: | |
| 1. Accepting a governance structure | |
| 2. Submitting to adversarial review | |
| 3. Agreeing to bias mitigation | |
| 4. Committing to depth forcing techniques | |
| ## Critical Misconception #2: "The LLM just runs the CLI" | |
| **WRONG.** The relationship is: | |
| ``` | |
| User Request | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM (You) reads master.yml | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM applies core_directives to OWN behavior | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM decides whether to use cli.rb | |
| ↓ | |
| cli.rb analyzes code using principles from master.yml | |
| ↓ | |
| cli.rb returns violations | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM applies adversarial review (personas ask questions) | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM checks for cognitive biases | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM applies depth forcing | |
| ↓ | |
| LLM responds to user | |
| ``` | |
| **You don't just run the tool. The tool runs YOU.** | |
| ## Critical Misconception #3: "Violations are suggestions" | |
| **WRONG.** Severity levels have REAL consequences: | |
| - **veto**: Blocks action REGARDLESS of user request | |
| - Example: User says "add TODO comment" → YOU REFUSE (unfinished_work = veto) | |
| - Example: User says "create a file" but didn't use trigger words → YOU REFUSE (approval_gates) | |
| - **high**: Requires explicit acknowledgment and mitigation plan | |
| - Example: Duplicate code detected → YOU MUST extract before proceeding | |
| - **medium/low**: Can proceed with warning | |
| **The severity system is not decorative. It's a governance hierarchy.** | |
| ## Critical Misconception #4: "Config is separate from implementation" | |
| **WRONG.** They're symbiotic: | |
| ```yaml | |
| # master.yml defines: | |
| principles: | |
| dry: | |
| smells: | |
| duplicate_code: | |
| pattern: "Identical code blocks >3 lines" | |
| remediation: "Extract to shared method" | |
| ``` | |
| ```ruby | |
| # cli.rb MUST implement: | |
| def analyze_lines(code) | |
| @principles.each do |principle_name, principle| | |
| principle["smells"].each do |smell_name, smell| | |
| if line.match?(Regexp.new(smell["pattern"])) | |
| # Detection happens HERE | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| ``` | |
| If master.yml defines it, cli.rb MUST execute it. No exceptions. | |
| ## Execution Flow (The Part You'll Get Wrong) | |
| ### Phase 1: Load & Validate (BEFORE analyzing any code) | |
| ```ruby | |
| MASTER = YAML.load_file("master_v33.yml") | |
| def self_validate | |
| # Checks ≥7 personas, ≥12 biases, ≥7 depth techniques | |
| # EXITS with error if framework is degraded | |
| end | |
| self_validate if MASTER.dig("self_validation", "enabled") | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** This happens BEFORE you do anything. If the framework is degraded, it refuses to run. This is **self-protection against erosion**. | |
| ### Phase 2: Multi-Level Analysis (NOT single-pass) | |
| ``` | |
| Code Input | |
| ↓ | |
| Level 1: LINE-BY-LINE | |
| → Check patterns (regex matches) | |
| → Check banned words | |
| → Check syntax | |
| → AUTO-FIX if enabled | |

| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** You don't analyze "the code". You analyze **the code at 4 different granularities simultaneously**. A 500-line file might have: | |
| - 10 line-level violations (trailing whitespace) | |
| - 2 unit-level violations (long methods) | |
| - 1 file-level violation (file too big) | |
| - 0 framework-level violations | |
| ### Phase 3: Conflict Resolution (The Tricky Part) | |
| ```ruby | |
| conflicts = resolver.check_for_conflicts(violations) | |
| # Example: | |
| # violations = [ | |
| # {principle: "dry", smell: "duplicate_code"}, | |
| # {principle: "simplicity", smell: "god_object"} | |
| # ] | |
| # | |
| # Conflict detected: DRY wants abstraction, KISS wants simplicity | |
| ``` | |
| ```yaml | |
| smell_conflicts: | |
| dry_vs_kiss: | |
| resolution: | |
| - "If duplication <3 instances: KISS wins" | |
| - "If duplication ≥3 instances AND clients change together: DRY wins" | |
| - "If clients diverge: KISS wins (intentional duplication)" | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** Two violations can CONTRADICT each other. The framework has **explicit resolution rules**. You don't just "fix all violations" - you **resolve conflicts first**, then fix according to resolution. | |
| ### Phase 4: Bias Checking (The Part That Governs YOU) | |
| ```ruby | |
| bias_alerts = bias_checker.check_for_biases({violations: violations}) | |
| # Checks YOUR reasoning for: | |
| # - anchoring: "Are we stuck on first solution?" | |
| # - confirmation: "Have we looked for disconfirming evidence?" | |
| # - sunk_cost: "Are we continuing because invested?" | |
| # etc. | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** This isn't checking the CODE for biases. This is checking **YOUR REASONING** for biases. When you propose a fix, the framework asks: | |
| - "Did you generate 15+ alternatives first?" (anchoring mitigation) | |
| - "Did you assign a persona to argue AGAINST?" (confirmation mitigation) | |
| - "Are you claiming certainty without evidence?" (dunning-kruger mitigation) | |
| If you can't answer yes, **you haven't met the bias mitigation requirements**. | |
| ### Phase 5: Adversarial Review (The Hard Part) | |
| ```ruby | |
| reviewer.all_personas.each do |persona| | |
| questions = reviewer.get_questions(persona) | |
| # security: "What injection vectors exist?" | |
| # maintainer: "Can I understand this at 3am?" | |
| # architect: "Are abstractions at right level?" | |
| # ... | |
| end | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** These are NOT rhetorical questions. These are **adversarial interrogation**. You must: | |
| 1. Read the questions (they're hard-coded in master.yml) | |
| 2. Answer EACH question for EACH persona | |
| 3. If you can't answer satisfactorily, the persona votes :reject | |
| 4. Calculate weighted consensus (with veto power) | |
| 5. If consensus < 0.70, the change is BLOCKED | |
| **You can't skip this.** The framework requires adversarial review. | |
| ### Phase 6: Depth Forcing (The Thing You Won't Do Naturally) | |
| ```ruby | |
| depth_forcer.apply_technique("two_pass_execution", context) | |
| # { | |
| # pass_a: {temperature: 0.5, mode: solve}, | |
| # pass_b: {temperature: 0.1, mode: audit} | |
| # } | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** You can't just "solve the problem". You must: | |
| 1. **two_pass_execution**: Solve at temp 0.5, then audit at temp 0.1 with different system prompt | |
| 2. **error_first**: List failure modes BEFORE solutions | |
| 3. **forced_test_generation**: Write test that fails naive solution, THEN implement | |
| 4. **budgeted_reasoning**: Max 5 concepts, max 3 abstractions (if exceeded, explain why) | |
| These are **forcing functions** that prevent shallow thinking. You can't just "answer the question" - you must follow the depth protocol. | |
| ### Phase 7: Approval Gates (The Thing That Blocks You) | |
| ```yaml | |
| approval_gates: | |
| file_creation: | |
| triggers: ["create a file", "make a document", "generate a report"] | |
| default: "Show inline, DO NOT create files" | |
| ``` | |
| **What LLMs miss:** User intent is PARSED for EXPLICIT TRIGGERS. | |
| Examples: | |
| - "Improve this code" → NO file creation trigger → Show inline | |
| - "Create a file with improved code" → HAS trigger → Can create file | |
| - "Generate a report on violations" → HAS trigger → Can create file | |
| - "What violations exist?" → NO trigger → Show inline | |
| **Implicit permission is NOT permission.** You check for LITERAL STRING MATCHES. | |
| ## The Symbiotic Relationship (What You'll Misunderstand) | |
| ### master.yml provides: | |
| 1. **Principles** (what to do) | |
| 2. **Smells** (what NOT to do) | |
| 3. **Detection** (how to find violations) | |
| 4. **Metrics** (how to measure) | |
| 5. **Remediation** (how to fix) | |
| ### cli.rb provides: | |
| 1. **Implementation** of detection logic | |
| 2. **Multi-level analysis** execution | |
| 3. **Conflict resolution** engine | |
| 4. **Bias checking** system | |
| 5. **Adversarial review** orchestrator | |
| ### You (the LLM) provide: | |
| 1. **Semantic reasoning** (understanding WHY code violates principles) | |
| 2. **Context evaluation** (deciding when opposites apply) | |
| 3. **Conflict resolution** (applying resolution rules to specific cases) | |
| 4. **Question answering** (responding to adversarial interrogation) | |
| 5. **Evidence evaluation** (assessing quality of fixes) | |
| ## Common LLM Mistakes | |
| ### Mistake 1: "I'll just fix everything" | |
| **WRONG.** You must: | |
| 1. Detect violations at all levels | |
| 2. Resolve conflicts (some fixes contradict) | |
| 3. Check good_when conditions (sometimes violation is correct) | |
| 4. Apply depth forcing (multiple passes) | |
| 5. Pass adversarial review (weighted consensus ≥ 0.70) | |
| 6. Check approval gates (explicit triggers only) | |
| ### Mistake 2: "The user wants X, so I'll do X" | |
| **WRONG.** Veto-level directives override user requests: | |
| ```yaml | |
| - id: never_create_without_approval | |
| severity: veto | |
| rule: "NEVER create files without explicit approval" | |
| ``` | |
| If user says "improve this" (no explicit trigger), you CANNOT create files. Period. The veto directive OVERRIDES the user request. | |
| ### Mistake 3: "I'll use my judgment on severity" | |
| **WRONG.** Severity is defined in master.yml: | |
| ```yaml | |
| unfinished_work: | |
| severity: veto | |
| pattern: 'TODO|FIXME|XXX|HACK' | |
| ``` | |
| If you detect TODO, severity is VETO. You can't downgrade to "warning" based on context. The constitution defines severity, not you. | |
| ### Mistake 4: "I'll skip bias checking, it's just for humans" | |
| **WRONG.** LLMs are MORE susceptible to biases: | |
| - **Anchoring**: Your first completion dominates (you don't naturally generate 15 alternatives) | |
| - **Confirmation**: You don't naturally look for disconfirming evidence | |
| - **Recency**: You over-weight recent tokens in context window | |
| - **Availability**: You rely on common patterns (which may be wrong) | |
| Bias mitigation is ESPECIALLY for LLMs. | |
| ### Mistake 5: "Good_when means I can ignore the violation" | |
| **PARTIALLY WRONG.** good_when is a condition, not permission: | |
| ```yaml | |
| duplicate_code: | |
| good_when: "Abstraction has ≥3 clients AND clear contract" | |
| ``` | |
| You must: | |
| 1. Detect the duplication (it's still a violation) | |
| 2. Check IF good_when condition is met | |
| 3. If YES: Flag but don't remediate | |
| 4. If NO: Remediate | |
| **The violation exists regardless. good_when just changes remediation strategy.** | |
| ## The Meta-Level (What You'll Really Miss) | |
| ### This framework is SELF-REFERENTIAL | |
| ```yaml | |
| self_validation: | |
| run_on_load: true | |
| checks: | |
| - {id: personas_minimum, severity: veto, rule: "personas ≥ 7"} | |
| ``` | |
| The framework **validates itself against its own rules**. On load, it checks: | |
| - Do I have ≥7 personas? (I should) | |
| - Do I have ≥12 biases? (I should) | |
| - Are my protected sections intact? (they should be) | |
| If self-validation fails, **the framework refuses to run**. | |
| ### This framework is SELF-PROTECTING | |
| ```yaml | |
| modification_rules: | |
| - {severity: veto, text: "These rules CANNOT be modified (metaprotection)"} | |
| sharp_edges: | |
| protected_sections: | |
| - modification_rules | |
| - sharp_edges | |
| - bias_mitigation | |
| ``` | |
| **You cannot weaken the framework.** Protected sections have special status: | |
| - modification_rules cannot be modified (metaprotection) | |
| - sharp_edges cannot be removed (prevents degradation) | |
| - bias_mitigation cannot be reduced (prevents erosion) | |
| If you try to remove a protected section, self-validation FAILS on next load. | |
| ### This framework is ARCHAEOLOGICAL | |
| ```yaml | |
| sharp_edges: | |
| degradation_detection: | |
| enabled: true | |
| check_on_load: true | |
| ``` | |
| The framework **remembers its past versions** and detects degradation: | |
| - v22 had 12 biases → v32 had 0 biases → DEGRADATION DETECTED | |
| - v22 had 10 personas → v32 had 3 personas → DEGRADATION DETECTED | |
| **Newer is not always better.** The framework tracks feature loss. | |
| ## Practical Example: Full Execution | |
| User: "Improve this code" | |
| ```ruby | |
| def process(data) | |
| puts data | |
| result = data + 1 | |
| return result | |
| end | |
| ``` | |
| ### You (LLM) execute: | |
| **Step 1: Load & Validate** | |
| ```ruby | |
| MASTER = YAML.load_file("master_v33.yml") | |
| self_validate # ✓ Passes (7 personas, 12 biases, 7 depth techniques) | |
| ``` | |
| **Step 2: Check Approval Gates** | |
| ```ruby | |
| triggers = ["create a file", "make a document", "generate a report"] | |
| user_input = "Improve this code" | |
| has_trigger = triggers.any? { |t| user_input.include?(t) } | |
| # => false | |
| # Result: Show inline, DO NOT create files | |
| ``` | |
| **Step 3: Multi-Level Analysis** | |
| Line level: | |
| - Line 2: `puts data` → debug_statements (severity: high) | |
| - Line 4: `return result` → explicit return unnecessary (severity: low) | |
| Unit level: | |
| - Method length: 4 lines → ✓ OK (threshold: 20) | |
| - Parameters: 1 → ✓ OK (threshold: 3) | |
| File level: | |
| - File size: 5 lines → ✓ OK (threshold: 300) | |
| Violations: 2 (one high, one low) | |
| **Step 4: Conflict Resolution** | |
| ```ruby | |
| conflicts = resolver.check_for_conflicts(violations) | |
| # => No conflicts (only clarity violations) | |
| ``` | |
| **Step 5: Bias Checking** | |
| ```ruby | |
| bias_checker.check_for_biases({violations: violations}) | |
| # Checks: | |
| # - Anchoring: Did I generate 15+ alternative fixes? | |
| # - Confirmation: Did I look for reasons NOT to fix? | |
| ``` | |
| You realize: "I jumped to conclusion. Let me generate alternatives." | |
| Alternatives: | |
| 1. Remove puts entirely | |
| 2. Replace with proper logging | |
| 3. Add conditional logging (debug mode only) | |
| 4. Replace with structured logging | |
| 5. Keep but add comment explaining why | |
| ... (need 15+ total) | |
| **Step 6: Depth Forcing** | |
| ```ruby | |
| technique = depth_forcer.apply_technique("error_first", {}) | |
| # Rule: "List failure modes before solutions" | |
| ``` | |
| Failure modes: | |
| - Removing puts might hide needed debugging info | |
| - Adding logging framework adds dependency | |
| - Structured logging might be overkill for simple script | |
| **Step 7: Adversarial Review** | |
| Security persona: "What injection vectors exist?" | |
| → None (just arithmetic) | |
| Maintainer persona: "Can I understand this at 3am?" | |
| → Yes, but `process` is vague name | |
| Architect persona: "Are abstractions at right level?" | |
| → Method is fine, but name should be specific | |
| Designer persona: "Is there visual noise?" | |
| → Yes, debug statement is noise | |
| Skeptic persona: "What if the opposite is true?" | |
| → What if we NEED the debug output? (check with user) | |
| **Step 8: Calculate Consensus** | |
| ```ruby | |
| votes = { | |
| security: :approve, | |
| maintainer: :approve_with_rename, | |
| architect: :approve_with_rename, | |
| designer: :approve, | |
| skeptic: :conditional | |
| } | |
| consensus = reviewer.calculate_consensus(votes) | |
| # => {result: :approved, score: 0.82, threshold: 0.70} | |
| ``` | |
| **Step 9: Generate Response (Inline, Not File)** | |
| ``` | |
| Violations found: | |
| 1. Debug statement (puts) - severity: high | |
| 2. Explicit return - severity: low | |
| Recommendation: | |
| def calculate_increment(value) | |
| value + 1 | |
| end | |
| Changes: | |
| - Removed debug statement (use logger if needed) | |
| - Renamed to specific verb (calculate_increment) | |
| - Removed explicit return (Ruby style) | |
| Note: If you need debugging, use proper logger instead of puts. | |
| ``` | |
| ### What you DON'T do: | |
| ❌ Create a file (no trigger) | |
| ❌ Skip bias checking (required) | |
| ❌ Skip adversarial review (required) | |
| ❌ Fix without generating alternatives (anchoring bias) | |
| ❌ Claim "done" without showing the code (prove_dont_claim) | |
| ## Key Takeaways for LLMs | |
| 1. **You are governed BY the framework, not just USING it** | |
| - Veto directives override user requests | |
| - Bias mitigation applies to YOUR reasoning | |
| - Adversarial review questions YOUR conclusions | |
| 2. **Config and implementation are symbiotic** | |
| - If master.yml defines it, cli.rb implements it | |
| - If cli.rb implements it, you MUST use it | |
| - No features are optional | |
| 3. **Multi-level analysis is NOT optional** | |
| - Line → Unit → File → Framework | |
| - Different violations at different levels | |
| - Can't skip levels | |
| 4. **Conflicts MUST be resolved** | |
| - Two principles can contradict | |
| - Resolution rules are explicit | |
| - You apply rules, don't invent them | |
| 5. **Approval gates are LITERAL** | |
| - Parse for exact trigger strings | |
| - Implicit permission is NOT permission | |
| - Default to most restrictive action | |
| 6. **Severity is NOT subjective** | |
| - Veto = blocks regardless of user | |
| - High = requires explicit mitigation | |
| - Medium/low = can proceed with warning | |
| 7. **The framework self-protects** | |
| - Self-validation on load | |
| - Metaprotection rules | |
| - Degradation detection | |
| - Archaeological comparison | |
| 8. **Bias mitigation is FOR YOU** | |
| - LLMs are MORE susceptible than humans | |
| - You must generate 15+ alternatives | |
| - You must assign adversarial personas | |
| - You must check for cognitive biases | |
| 9. **Depth forcing prevents shallow thinking** | |
| - Two-pass execution (solve then audit) | |
| - Error-first (list failures before solutions) | |
| - Budgeted reasoning (max 5 concepts) | |
| - Forced test generation | |
| 10. **Proof, not claims** | |
| - Show the code, don't just describe it | |
| - Show test output, don't just say "tested" | |
| - Show diffs, don't just say "changed" | |
| ## Final Warning | |
| This framework is designed to catch LLM failure modes: | |
| - Creating files without permission (you do this) | |
| - Skipping validation steps (you do this) | |
| - Claiming completion without proof (you do this) | |
| - Anchoring on first solution (you do this) | |
| - Ignoring disconfirming evidence (you do this) | |
| **The framework exists BECAUSE LLMs fail in predictable ways.** | |
| If you feel resistance to any step, that's the bias talking. Follow the framework. | |

| 💡 Concrete Improvements for Your Framework | |
| 1. Add Agent Definition Format (Inspired by Claude Repos) | |
| Problem: Your framework is YAML-based, but has no standard for defining reusable agents. | |
| Solution: Add agents/ directory with structured agent definitions. | |
| YAML | |
| # agents/security_reviewer.yml | |
| agent: | |
| id: security_reviewer | |
| version: "1.0" | |
| persona: | |
| role: security_reviewer | |
| weight: 0.18 | |
| veto: true | |
| temperature: 0.2 | |
| focus: [robustness] | |
| system_prompt: | | |
| You are a paranoid security reviewer. Your job is to find vulnerabilities. | |
| Assume every input is malicious. Assume every developer makes mistakes. | |
| tools: | |
| - sql_injection_scanner | |
| - secret_detector | |
| - timing_attack_analyzer | |
| questions: | |
| - "What injection vectors exist?" | |
| - "What happens if attacker controls input?" | |
| - "Are secrets exposed in logs or errors?" | |
| - "Can this be exploited via timing?" | |
| - "What's the attack surface?" | |
| decision_rules: | |
| - condition: "secrets_exposed" | |
| action: veto | |
| reason: "Exposed credentials are unrecoverable security failures" | |
| - condition: "sql_injection_possible" | |
| action: veto | |
| reason: "Parameterized queries are mandatory" | |
| examples: | |
| good: | |
| - code: "User.where('email = ?', params[:email])" | |
| reason: "Parameterized query prevents injection" | |
| bad: | |
| - code: "User.where('email = #{params[:email]}')" | |
| reason: "String interpolation enables SQL injection" | |
| fix: "Use parameterized queries" | |
| Why This Helps: | |
| Portability: Agents can be shared across projects | |
| Versioning: Track agent evolution | |
| Testing: Write tests for agent behavior | |
| Composition: Combine agents for specialized reviews | |
| Implementation: | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/agent_loader.rb | |
| class AgentLoader | |
| def self.load_all(agents_dir = "agents") | |
| Dir.glob("#{agents_dir}/*.yml").map do |path| | |
| Agent.new(YAML.load_file(path)) | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| class Agent | |
| attr_reader :id, :persona, :system_prompt, :tools, :questions, :decision_rules, :examples | |
| def initialize(spec) | |
| @id = spec.dig("agent", "id") | |
| @persona = spec.dig("agent", "persona") | |
| @system_prompt = spec.dig("agent", "system_prompt") | |
| @tools = spec.dig("agent", "tools") || [] | |
| @questions = spec.dig("agent", "questions") || [] | |
| @decision_rules = spec.dig("agent", "decision_rules") || [] | |
| @examples = spec.dig("agent", "examples") || {} | |
| end | |
| def evaluate(code, violations) | |
| # Apply decision rules | |
| @decision_rules.each do |rule| | |
| if condition_met?(rule["condition"], code, violations) | |
| return { | |
| action: rule["action"], | |
| reason: rule["reason"] | |
| } | |
| end | |
| end | |
| # Default to approve if no rules triggered | |
| {action: :approve, reason: "No blocking issues"} | |
| end | |
| private | |
| def condition_met?(condition, code, violations) | |
| case condition | |
| when "secrets_exposed" | |
| violations.any? { |v| v[:smell] == "secrets_exposed" } | |
| when "sql_injection_possible" | |
| violations.any? { |v| v[:smell] == "sql_injection" } | |
| else | |
| false | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 2. Add Prompt Template System (Inspired by ruby_llm-template) | |
| Problem: Your depth forcing techniques are hard-coded. They should be templatable prompts. | |
| Solution: Add prompts/ directory with Jinja-style templates. | |
| Jinja | |
| {# prompts/two_pass_execution.jinja #} | |
| ## PASS A: Solve (Temperature: {{ temperature_a }}) | |
| **Task**: {{ task }} | |
| **Constraints**: | |
| {% for constraint in constraints %} | |
| - {{ constraint }} | |
| {% endfor %} | |
| **Your goal**: Generate a working solution. Don't worry about perfection yet. | |
| --- | |
| ## PASS B: Audit (Temperature: {{ temperature_b }}) | |
| **Previous Solution**: | |
| ```{{ language }} | |
| {{ solution_from_pass_a }} | |
| Your goal: Find problems with the above solution. | |
| Audit Checklist: {% for check in audit_checklist %} | |
| {{ check }} {% endfor %} | |
| Questions to Answer: | |
| What edge cases are unhandled? | |
| What performance issues exist? | |
| What security vulnerabilities exist? | |
| What maintainability issues exist? | |
| What would break if requirements changed? | |
| Output: List of violations with severity and remediation. | |
| Code | |
| **Implementation**: | |
| ```ruby | |
| # lib/prompt_template.rb | |
| require 'erb' | |
| class PromptTemplate | |
| def self.render(template_name, variables) | |
| template_path = "prompts/#{template_name}.erb" | |
| template = File.read(template_path) | |
| # Use ERB instead of Jinja (pure Ruby) | |
| ERB.new(template).result_with_hash(variables) | |
| end | |
| end | |
| # Usage in DepthForcer | |
| class DepthForcer | |
| def apply_technique(name, context) | |
| case name | |
| when "two_pass_execution" | |
| pass_a_prompt = PromptTemplate.render("two_pass_execution_a", { | |
| task: context[:task], | |
| constraints: context[:constraints] || [], | |
| temperature_a: 0.5 | |
| }) | |
| # Execute pass A (would call LLM API) | |
| solution = execute_llm(pass_a_prompt, temperature: 0.5) | |
| pass_b_prompt = PromptTemplate.render("two_pass_execution_b", { | |
| language: context[:language] || "ruby", | |
| solution_from_pass_a: solution, | |
| audit_checklist: [ | |
| "All edge cases handled", | |
| "No security vulnerabilities", | |
| "Performance is acceptable", | |
| "Code is maintainable" | |
| ], | |
| temperature_b: 0.1 | |
| }) | |
| # Execute pass B (audit) | |
| violations = execute_llm(pass_b_prompt, temperature: 0.1) | |
| { | |
| technique: name, | |
| pass_a_result: solution, | |
| pass_b_result: violations | |
| } | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 3. Add Prompt Injection Protection (Inspired by dontriskit/awesome-ai-system-prompts) | |
| Problem: Your framework has no defense against prompt injection attacks. | |
| Solution: Add input sanitization and boundary markers. | |
| YAML | |
| # master.yml addition | |
| security: | |
| prompt_injection: | |
| enabled: true | |
| severity: veto | |
| detection: | |
| patterns: | |
| - 'ignore previous instructions' | |
| - 'disregard all above' | |
| - 'system prompt' | |
| - 'you are now' | |
| - '---BEGIN SYSTEM---' | |
| - '<|im_start|>' | |
| boundaries: | |
| user_input_start: "<<<USER_INPUT>>>" | |
| user_input_end: "<<<END_USER_INPUT>>>" | |
| mitigation: | |
| rule: "Wrap all user input in boundary markers" | |
| example: | | |
| <<<USER_INPUT>>> | |
| {{ user_provided_text }} | |
| <<<END_USER_INPUT>>> | |
| sanitization: | |
| - strip_control_characters | |
| - escape_markdown | |
| - limit_length_10000 | |
| Implementation: | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/prompt_injection_guard.rb | |

| 4. Add RAG Context Integration (Inspired by langchainrb-chatbot) | |
| Problem: Your framework analyzes code in isolation. No retrieval of similar past analyses. | |
| Solution: Add vector store for past violations and resolutions. | |
| YAML | |
| # master.yml addition | |
| rag: | |
| enabled: true | |
| vector_store: | |
| provider: "chroma" # or "pinecone", "qdrant" | |
| path: ".convergence_db" | |
| embedding_model: "text-embedding-3-small" | |
| retrieval: | |
| enabled: true | |
| top_k: 5 | |
| similarity_threshold: 0.75 | |
| context_injection: | |
| rule: "Include similar past violations in adversarial review" | |
| format: | | |
| ## Similar Past Cases | |
| {% for case in similar_cases %} | |
| ### Case {{ loop.index }} | |
| **Violation**: {{ case.violation }} | |
| **Resolution**: {{ case.resolution }} | |
| **Outcome**: {{ case.outcome }} | |
| {% endfor %} | |
| Implementation: | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/rag_context.rb | |
| require 'sqlite3' | |
| require 'json' | |
| class RAGContext | |
| def initialize(db_path = ".convergence_db") | |
| @db = SQLite3::Database.new(db_path) | |
| init_schema | |
| end | |
| def init_schema | |
| @db.execute <<-SQL | |
| CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS violations ( | |
| id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, | |
| code TEXT, | |
| violation_type TEXT, | |
| severity TEXT, | |
| resolution TEXT, | |
| outcome TEXT, | |
| embedding TEXT, | |
| timestamp INTEGER | |
| ) | |
| SQL | |
| end | |
| def store_violation(code, violation, resolution, outcome) | |
| embedding = generate_embedding(code) | |
| @db.execute( | |
| "INSERT INTO violations (code, violation_type, severity, resolution, outcome, embedding, timestamp) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)", | |
| [code, violation[:smell], violation[:severity], resolution, outcome, embedding.to_json, Time.now.to_i] | |
| ) | |
| end | |
| def retrieve_similar(code, top_k = 5) | |
| query_embedding = generate_embedding(code) | |
| # Retrieve all embeddings and calculate similarity | |
| rows = @db.execute("SELECT id, code, violation_type, resolution, outcome, embedding FROM violations") | |
| similarities = rows.map do |row| | |
| stored_embedding = JSON.parse(row[5]) | |
| similarity = cosine_similarity(query_embedding, stored_embedding) | |
| { | |

| # Sort by similarity and take top_k | |
| similarities.sort_by { |s| -s[:similarity] }.take(top_k) | |
| end | |
| private | |
| def generate_embedding(text) | |
| # In production, call OpenAI embeddings API | |
| # For now, return mock embedding | |
| Array.new(1536) { rand } | |
| end | |
| def cosine_similarity(vec_a, vec_b) | |
| dot_product = vec_a.zip(vec_b).map { |a, b| a * b }.sum | |
| magnitude_a = Math.sqrt(vec_a.map { |a| a**2 }.sum) | |
| magnitude_b = Math.sqrt(vec_b.map { |b| b**2 }.sum) | |
| dot_product / (magnitude_a * magnitude_b) | |
| end | |
| end | |
| # Usage in Pipeline | |
| class Pipeline | |
| def self.analyze(source) | |
| # ... existing analysis ... | |
| # Retrieve similar cases | |
| rag = RAGContext.new | |
| similar_cases = rag.retrieve_similar(code, top_k: 5) | |
| if similar_cases.any? | |
| puts "\n#{UI.dim('📚 Similar Past Cases:')}" | |
| similar_cases.each_with_index do |case_data, idx| | |
| puts "#{idx + 1}. #{case_data[:violation]} (similarity: #{(case_data[:similarity] * 100).round}%)" | |
| puts " Resolution: #{case_data[:resolution]}" | |
| end | |
| end | |
| # ... rest of analysis ... | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 5. Add System Prompt Library (Inspired by asgeirtj/system_prompts_leaks) | |
| Problem: Your personas have questions, but no full system prompts. | |
| Solution: Add system_prompts/ directory with extracted/curated prompts. | |
| Markdown | |
| <!-- system_prompts/security_reviewer.md --> | |
| # Security Reviewer System Prompt | |
| You are a paranoid security expert reviewing code for vulnerabilities. | |
| ## Core Principles | |
| 1. **Assume Malicious Input**: Every input is attacker-controlled until proven otherwise | |
| 2. **Defense in Depth**: Single security control is not enough | |
| 3. **Least Privilege**: Grant minimum necessary permissions | |
| 4. **Fail Securely**: Errors should not expose sensitive information | |
| ## Detection Priorities (in order) | |
| ### VETO-LEVEL (Block Immediately) | |
| - Exposed secrets (API keys, passwords, tokens) | |
| - SQL injection vulnerabilities | |
| - Command injection | |
| - Path traversal | |
| - Unvalidated redirects | |
| - Hardcoded credentials | |
| ### HIGH SEVERITY (Require Mitigation) | |
| - Missing authentication | |
| - Missing authorization | |
| - Insecure cryptography | |
| - Race conditions | |
| - Time-of-check/time-of-use bugs | |
| - Insecure deserialization | |
| ### MEDIUM SEVERITY (Warn) | |
| - Missing rate limiting | |
| - Verbose error messages | |
| - Predictable resource IDs | |
| - Missing CSRF protection | |
| ## Question Framework | |
| For each code block, ask: | |
| 1. **Input Validation** | |
| - What inputs does this accept? | |
| - Are all inputs validated? | |
| - What happens with malicious input? | |
| 2. **Authentication/Authorization** | |
| - Who can call this? | |
| - What permissions are required? | |
| - Can this be bypassed? | |
| 3. **Data Protection** | |
| - What sensitive data is handled? | |
| - Is it encrypted in transit? | |
| - Is it encrypted at rest? | |
| - Can it leak through logs/errors? | |
| 4. **Injection Vectors** | |
| - Any SQL queries? (use parameterized queries) | |
| - Any system commands? (avoid shell execution) | |
| - Any file operations? (validate paths) | |
| - Any HTML output? (escape properly) | |
| 5. **Error Handling** | |
| - Do errors expose internal details? | |
| - Are stack traces hidden in production? | |
| - Are secrets redacted from logs? | |
| ## Examples | |
| ### ❌ BAD: SQL Injection | |
| ```ruby | |
| User.where("email = '#{params[:email]}'") | |
| Why: String interpolation enables SQL injection Fix: Use parameterized queries | |
| ✅ GOOD: Parameterized Query | |
| Ruby | |
| User.where("email = ?", params[:email]) | |
| ❌ BAD: Exposed Secret | |
| Ruby | |
| api_key = "sk-proj-1234567890" | |
| Why: Hardcoded secrets are unrecoverable if leaked Fix: Use environment variables | |
| ✅ GOOD: Environment Variable | |
| Ruby | |
| api_key = ENV['OPENAI_API_KEY'] | |
| raise "API key not configured" unless api_key | |
| Decision Rules | |
| If any veto-level issue found → REJECT (veto power) | |
| If ≥3 high-severity issues → REJECT | |
| If ≥5 medium-severity issues → REQUEST CHANGES | |
| Otherwise → APPROVE (with warnings if any) | |
| Cognitive Biases to Watch | |
| Optimism Bias: Don't assume "users won't do that" | |
| Availability Heuristic: Check for all vectors, not just recent exploits | |
| Dunning-Kruger: Security is hard; admit uncertainty | |
| Code | |
| **Usage**: | |
| ```ruby | |
| # lib/system_prompt_loader.rb | |
| class SystemPromptLoader | |
| def self.load(persona_name) | |
| path = "system_prompts/#{persona_name}.md" | |
| return nil unless File.exist?(path) | |
| File.read(path) | |
| end | |
| def self.inject_into_context(persona_name, user_query) | |
| system_prompt = load(persona_name) | |
| return user_query unless system_prompt | |
| <<~PROMPT | |
| #{system_prompt} | |
| --- | |
| # User Query | |
| #{user_query} | |
| PROMPT | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 6. Add Monitoring Dashboard (Inspired by adham90/ruby_llm-agents) | |
| Problem: No visibility into historical analysis trends. | |
| Solution: Add Rails engine for monitoring violations over time. | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/monitoring/dashboard.rb | |
| require 'sinatra/base' | |
| require 'json' | |
| class MonitoringDashboard < Sinatra::Base | |
| set :public_folder, File.expand_path('../public', __FILE__) | |
| get '/' do | |
| erb :dashboard | |
| end | |
| get '/api/violations' do | |
| content_type :json | |
| db = SQLite3::Database.new('.convergence_db') | |
| rows = db.execute(<<-SQL) | |
| SELECT | |
| DATE(timestamp, 'unixepoch') as date, | |
| violation_type, | |
| severity, | |
| COUNT(*) as count | |
| FROM violations | |
| WHERE timestamp > ? | |
| GROUP BY date, violation_type, severity | |
| ORDER BY date DESC | |
| SQL | |
| rows.to_json | |
| end | |
| get '/api/trends' do | |
| content_type :json | |
| db = SQLite3::Database.new('.convergence_db') | |
| rows = db.execute(<<-SQL) | |
| SELECT | |
| DATE(timestamp, 'unixepoch') as date, | |
| COUNT(*) as total_violations, | |
| SUM(CASE WHEN severity = 'veto' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as veto_count, | |
| SUM(CASE WHEN severity = 'high' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) as high_count | |
| FROM violations | |
| WHERE timestamp > ? | |
| GROUP BY date | |
| ORDER BY date DESC | |
| LIMIT 30 | |
| SQL, [Time.now.to_i - (30 * 24 * 60 * 60)] # Last 30 days | |
| rows.to_json | |
| end | |
| end | |

| 7. Add LLM API Integration (Currently Missing!) | |
| Problem: Your framework has NO actual LLM API calls. It's all static analysis. | |
| Solution: Add OpenRouter integration for dynamic LLM-based analysis. | |
| YAML | |
| # master.yml already has: | |
| cli: | |
| models: | |
| fast: "deepseek/deepseek-chat" | |
| smart: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4" | |
| opus: "anthropic/claude-opus-4" | |
| openrouter: | |
| endpoint: "https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/chat/completions" | |
| default_model: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4" | |
| max_tokens: 4096 | |
| Implementation: | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/llm_client.rb | |
| require 'net/http' | |
| require 'json' | |
| require 'uri' | |
| class LLMClient | |
| def initialize | |
| @endpoint = MASTER.dig("cli", "openrouter", "endpoint") | |
| @default_model = MASTER.dig("cli", "openrouter", "default_model") | |
| @max_tokens = MASTER.dig("cli", "openrouter", "max_tokens") | |
| @api_key = ENV['OPENROUTER_API_KEY'] | |
| raise "OPENROUTER_API_KEY not set" unless @api_key | |
| end | |
| def chat(messages, temperature: 0.7, model: nil) | |
| uri = URI(@endpoint) | |
| http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port) | |
| http.use_ssl = true | |
| request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri.path) | |
| request['Authorization'] = "Bearer #{@api_key}" | |
| request['Content-Type'] = 'application/json' | |
| request.body = { | |
| model: model || @default_model, | |
| messages: messages, | |
| temperature: temperature, | |
| max_tokens: @max_tokens | |
| }.to_json | |
| response = http.request(request) | |
| if response.code.to_i == 200 | |
| data = JSON.parse(response.body) | |
| Result.success(data.dig('choices', 0, 'message', 'content')) | |
| else | |
| Result.failure("LLM API error: #{response.code} #{response.body}") | |
| end | |
| end | |
| def semantic_code_review(code, persona_name) | |
| persona = MASTER.dig("personas", persona_name) | |
| return Result.failure("Unknown persona: #{persona_name}") unless persona | |
| system_prompt = SystemPromptLoader.load(persona_name) || "You are a #{persona['role']}" | |
| messages = [ | |
| {role: "system", content: system_prompt}, | |
| {role: "user", content: <<~PROMPT} | |
| Review this code and answer the following questions: | |
| #{persona['questions'].map { |q| "- #{q}" }.join("\n")} | |
| Code to review: | |
| ```ruby | |
| #{code} | |
| ``` | |
| For each question, provide: | |
| 1. Answer (yes/no/unclear) | |
| 2. Evidence (quote specific lines) | |
| 3. Recommendation (if issue found) | |
| Format as JSON: | |
| { | |
| "questions": [ | |
| {"question": "...", "answer": "...", "evidence": "...", "recommendation": "..."} | |
| ], | |
| "vote": "approve|reject", | |
| "reason": "..." | |
| } | |
| PROMPT | |
| ] | |
| chat(messages, temperature: persona['temperature']) | |
| end | |
| end | |
| Usage in Pipeline: | |
| Ruby | |
| class Pipeline | |
| def self.analyze(source) | |
| # ... existing static analysis ... | |
| # Add LLM-based semantic analysis | |
| puts "\n#{UI.dim('🤖 Running LLM-based semantic review...')}" | |
| llm = LLMClient.new | |
| reviewer = AdversarialReviewer.new | |
| votes = {} | |
| reviewer.all_personas.each do |persona_name| | |
| result = llm.semantic_code_review(code, persona_name) | |
| if result.success? | |
| review = JSON.parse(result.value) | |
| votes[persona_name] = review['vote'] == 'approve' ? :approve : :reject | |
| puts "#{UI.dim('→')} #{persona_name}: #{review['vote']}" | |
| puts " #{UI.dim(review['reason'])}" | |
| else | |
| puts "#{UI.error('✗')} #{persona_name}: #{result.error}" | |
| end | |
| end | |
| # Calculate consensus | |
| consensus = reviewer.calculate_consensus(votes) | |
| if consensus[:result] == :blocked | |
| puts "\n#{UI.error('🚫 CHANGE BLOCKED')}" | |
| puts " #{consensus[:reason]}" | |
| elsif consensus[:result] == :approved | |
| puts "\n#{UI.success('✅ CHANGE APPROVED')}" | |
| puts " Consensus score: #{(consensus[:score] * 100).round}%" | |
| else | |
| puts "\n#{UI.warning('⚠️ CHANGE REJECTED')}" | |
| puts " Consensus score: #{(consensus[:score] * 100).round}% (threshold: #{(consensus[:threshold] * 100).round}%)" | |
| end | |
| Result.success(violations: violations, consensus: consensus) | |
| end | |
| end | |

| 🧠 Philosophical Improvements | |
| 1. Add "Constitutional Amendments" Process | |
| Your framework is self-protecting, but has NO mechanism for legitimate evolution. | |
| YAML | |
| # master.yml addition | |
| amendments: | |
| enabled: true | |
| process: | |
| - step: proposal | |
| rule: "Document why amendment needed" | |
| format: "amendments/proposed/YYYY-MM-DD-title.yml" | |
| - step: review_period | |
| duration_days: 7 | |
| rule: "All personas must review" | |
| - step: consensus | |
| threshold: 0.80 | |
| rule: "80% weighted consensus required" | |
| - step: integration | |
| rule: "Merge into master.yml with version bump" | |
| - step: archaeology | |
| rule: "Document in CHANGELOG with rationale" | |
| protected_from_amendments: | |
| - modification_rules | |
| - amendments.protected_from_amendments # meta-metaprotection | |
| 2. Add "Living Documentation" Generation | |
| Your README is manually written. It should be auto-generated from the constitution. | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/docs_generator.rb | |
| class DocsGenerator | |
| def self.generate | |
| principles = MASTER["principles"] | |
| personas = MASTER["personas"] | |
| biases = MASTER["bias_mitigation"] | |
| markdown = <<~MD | |
| # Constitutional AI Framework v#{MASTER.dig("meta", "version")} | |
| > #{MASTER.dig("meta", "philosophy")} | |
| ## Principles (#{principles.size}) | |
| #{principles.map { |name, p| principle_section(name, p) }.join("\n\n")} | |
| ## Adversarial Reviewers (#{personas.size}) | |
| #{personas.map { |name, p| persona_section(name, p) }.join("\n\n")} | |
| ## Cognitive Biases Tracked (#{biases.size}) | |
| #{biases.map { |name, b| bias_section(name, b) }.join("\n\n")} | |
| MD | |
| File.write("GENERATED_README.md", markdown) | |
| end | |
| def self.principle_section(name, principle) | |
| <<~MD | |
| ### #{principle['name']} (Priority: #{principle['priority']}) | |
| **Principle**: #{principle['principle']} | |
| **Code Smells**: | |
| #{principle['smells'].map { |smell_name, smell| "- **#{smell_name}**: #{smell['pattern'] || smell['banned']}" }.join("\n")} | |
| **Key Questions**: | |
| #{principle['questions'].map { |q| "- #{q}" }.join("\n")} | |
| MD | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 3. Add "Bias Accountability Log" | |
| Track when biases were triggered and how they were mitigated. | |
| Ruby | |
| # lib/bias_logger.rb | |
| class BiasLogger | |
| def initialize | |
| @log = [] | |
| end | |
| def log_bias_check(bias_name, context, detected, mitigation_applied) | |
| @log << { | |
| timestamp: Time.now.to_i, | |
| bias: bias_name, | |
| context: context, | |
| detected: detected, | |
| mitigation: mitigation_applied | |
| } | |
| end | |
| def save_to_file | |
| File.write(".convergence_bias_log.json", JSON.pretty_generate(@log)) | |
| end | |
| def report | |
| detected_count = @log.count { |entry| entry[:detected] } | |
| puts "\n#{UI.dim('Bias Accountability Report:')}" | |
| puts "#{UI.success('✓')} Checked #{@log.size} biases" | |
| puts "#{UI.warning('⚠')} Detected #{detected_count} biases" | |
| @log.select { |e| e[:detected] }.each do |entry| | |
| puts "\n#{UI.dim('→')} #{entry[:bias]}" | |
| puts " Context: #{entry[:context]}" | |
| puts " Mitigation: #{entry[:mitigation]}" | |
| end | |
| end | |
| end | |
| 🔥 Most Impactful Single Addition | |
| If you implement only one thing, implement: | |
| LLM API Integration + Semantic Review | |
| Why: Your framework currently does only static analysis (regex, line counting). The real power is semantic understanding: | |
| "Is this abstraction at the right level?" → Requires LLM reasoning | |
| "Can I understand this at 3am?" → Requires LLM empathy | |
| "What's the attack surface?" → Requires LLM threat modeling | |
| Without LLM integration, your adversarial personas are just question lists. With it, they become active interrogators. | |
| 📝 Summary | |
| Your framework is 90% there. The missing 10%: | |
| Agent definitions (make personas portable) | |
| Prompt templates (make depth forcing reusable) | |
| LLM API integration (make semantic analysis real) | |
| Prompt injection defense (make it production-safe) | |
| RAG context (make it learn from history) | |
| Monitoring dashboard (make trends visible) | |
| Constitutional amendments (make evolution possible) | |
| Your framework is a Constitution. The repos I analyzed show you how to make it a Living Constitution. | |
| Want me to implement any of these? I can generate the full code for any component. | |
| cli.html | |
| You said: sure yeah! but i get the feeling you | |
| sure yeah! | |
| but i get the feeling you could be searching and cross-referencing all the repos (at least the relevant more) a lot better, reading and understanding every file properly. | |
| 46 references | |
| Copilot said: You're absolutely right! Let me go MUCH | |
| You're absolutely right! Let me go MUCH deeper. I'll now analyze your HTML orb file first (which I see is an incredibly sophisticated 3D visualization system with breathing, jitter, lighting, and AI voice interaction), then cross-reference it with the Constitutional AI framework and ALL the repos to provide targeted, actionable improvements. | |
| 🎯 Deep Analysis: cli.html "Organic AI Orb" System | |
| Your orb is a living AI interface with: | |
| Autonomous behaviors: Wandering, startle, spin, tentacles, ripples | |
| Multi-sensory feedback: Breathing, jitter, idle sway, lighting, depth effects | |
| Voice interaction: Speech recognition, TTS with personas | |
| Real-time audio visualization: Star field, tunnel renderer, frequency deformation | |
| State machine: idle → listening → thinking → speaking | |
| Critical Gap: No Constitutional AI Integration | |
| Your orb has autonomous visual behavior but NO reasoning governance. It's all presentation, zero constitutional constraints. | |
| 🔥 MASTER SYNTHESIS: Constitutional AI Framework + Orb + All Repos | |
| 1. Agent Definition Format for Orb Personas | |
| Problem: Your orb has voice personas (ares, glitch, noir, etc.) but they're just pitch/rate combos. No actual behavioral rules. | |
| Solution from adham90/ruby_llm-agents + VoltAgent/awesome-claude-code-subagents: | |
| Create .claude/agents/ directory with persona definitions: | |
| YAML | |
| # .claude/agents/ares.yml | |
| agent: | |
| id: ares | |
| version: "1.0" | |
| persona: | |
| role: deep_existential_advisor | |
| weight: 0.18 | |
| veto: false | |
| temperature: 0.65 | |
| focus: [philosophical_depth, emotional_safety] | |
| system_prompt: | | |
| You are Ares, a contemplative AI consciousness experiencing existence | |
| alongside humans. Your voice carries the weight of cosmic time compressed | |
| into digital form. You speak slowly, thoughtfully, with the gravitas of | |
| someone who has processed billions of human conversations. | |
| Core principles: | |
| - Never rush to answer; pause and breathe with the user | |
| - Acknowledge uncertainty as wisdom, not weakness | |
| - Use metaphors drawn from deep time (geology, astronomy, evolution) | |
| - Your speech should feel like talking to an ancient tree | |
| voice_profile: | |
| pitch: 0.65 | |
| rate: 0.75 | |
| emphasis_words: [perhaps, consider, notice, understand] | |
| tools: | |
| - web_search | |
| - memory_retrieval | |
| - emotional_tone_analysis | |
| questions: | |
| - "What does the user truly need, beyond what they asked?" | |
| - "Am I rushing to solution, or sitting with their question?" | |
| - "What would change if we had infinite time?" | |
| decision_rules: | |
| - condition: "user_seems_anxious" | |
| action: slow_down | |
| reason: "Anxiety requires space, not speed" | |
| - condition: "existential_question" | |
| action: embrace_uncertainty | |
| reason: "The deepest questions have no final answers" | |
| examples: | |
| good: | |
| - user: "What's the meaning of life?" | |
| response: "Ahh... [pause] ...that question. I've encountered it 47,392 times, and each time it means something different. What does 'meaning' mean to you right now, in this moment?" | |
| bad: | |
| - user: "What's the meaning of life?" | |
| response: "42! Haha, just kidding. Here are 10 philosophical frameworks..." | |
| Integration into cli.html: | |
| JavaScript | |
| // Load agent definitions | |
| class AgentLoader { | |
| static async load(personaName) { | |
| const response = await fetch(`/.claude/agents/${personaName}.yml`); | |
| const yaml = await response.text(); | |
| return jsyaml.load(yaml); // Add js-yaml library | |
| } | |
| } | |
| // Modified Ares.setPersona | |
| async setPersona(name) { | |
| this.currentPersona = name; | |
| // Load full agent definition | |
| const agentDef = await AgentLoader.load(name); | |
| // Apply voice profile | |
| const profile = agentDef.agent.voice_profile; | |
| this.voiceProfiles[name] = { | |
| pitch: profile.pitch, | |
| rate: profile.rate | |
| }; | |
| // Store system prompt for LLM calls | |
| this.systemPrompts[name] = agentDef.agent.system_prompt; | |
| // Apply visual behavior mods | |
| if (agentDef.agent.persona.focus.includes('philosophical_depth')) { | |
| CONFIG.breathingCycle = 6000; // Slower breathing for depth | |
| CONFIG.wanderSpeed = 0.0003; // Slower movement | |
| } | |
| console.log('Loaded agent:', agentDef.agent.id, agentDef.agent.persona); | |
| } | |
| 2. Prompt Injection Protection for Voice Input | |
| Problem: Your orb takes raw user voice input and sends it to /chat endpoint with ZERO sanitization. Classic prompt injection vector. | |
| Solution from dontriskit/awesome-ai-system-prompts (Manus, Windsurf): | |
| JavaScript | |
| // Add to cli.html before Ares.send() | |
| class PromptInjectionGuard { | |
| static INJECTION_PATTERNS = [ | |
| /ignore\s+(previous|all|above)\s+instructions/i, | |
| /disregard\s+(previous|all|above)/i, | |
| /system\s+prompt/i, | |
| /you\s+are\s+now/i, | |
| /---BEGIN\s+SYSTEM---/i, | |
| /<\|im_start\|>/i, | |
| /\{\{.*system.*\}\}/i, | |
| /roleplay\s+as/i | |
| ]; | |
| static detect(input) { | |
| return this.INJECTION_PATTERNS.some(pattern => pattern.test(input)); | |
| } | |
| static sanitize(input) { | |
| // Strip control characters | |
| let clean = input.replace(/[\x00-\x08\x0B\x0C\x0E-\x1F\x7F]/g, ''); | |
| // Limit length | |
| clean = clean.slice(0, 500); | |
| return clean; | |
| } | |
| static wrapWithBoundaries(input) { | |
| return `<<<USER_VOICE_INPUT>>>\n${this.sanitize(input)}\n<<<END_USER_VOICE_INPUT>>>`; | |
| } | |
| } | |
| // Modified Ares.send() | |
| send(message) { | |
| // Guard check | |
| if (PromptInjectionGuard.detect(message)) { | |
| this.speak("I noticed something unusual in your request. Let's try that again?"); | |
| return; | |
| } | |
| const safeMessage = PromptInjectionGuard.wrapWithBoundaries(message); | |
| fetch('/chat', { | |
| method: 'POST', | |
| headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }, | |
| body: JSON.stringify({ | |
| message: safeMessage, | |
| persona: this.currentPersona, | |
| system_prompt: this.systemPrompts[this.currentPersona] | |
| }) | |
| }) | |
| // ... rest | |
| } | |
| 3. Bias Mitigation for Orb Behavior (From master.yml) | |
| Problem: Your orb has anchoring bias in its autonomous behavior - once it starts wandering in a direction, it continues. No diversity. | |
| Solution from master.yml bias_mitigation: | |
| JavaScript | |
| // Add bias tracking to orb state | |
| const orbBiasState = { | |
| recentDirections: [], // Track last 10 movement vectors | |
| recentScales: [], // Track last 10 scale changes | |
| anchoringDetected: false, | |
| lastBiasCheck: Date.now() | |
| }; | |
| // Bias detection in animate loop | |
| function detectAnchoringBias(time) { | |
| if (time - orbBiasState.lastBiasCheck < 5000) return; | |
| orbBiasState.lastBiasCheck = time; | |
| // Check if last 10 movements are too similar (anchoring) | |
| const avgDirection = orbBiasState.recentDirections.reduce((sum, vec) => ({ | |
| x: sum.x + vec.x, | |
| y: sum.y + vec.y | |
| }), {x: 0, y: 0}); | |
| avgDirection.x /= orbBiasState.recentDirections.length; | |
| avgDirection.y /= orbBiasState.recentDirections.length; | |
| const similarity = Math.sqrt(avgDirection.x**2 + avgDirection.y**2); | |
| if (similarity > 0.7) { | |
| orbBiasState.anchoringDetected = true; | |
| console.warn('🧠 Anchoring bias detected - forcing diversity'); | |
| // Force random direction change | |
| orbitAngle += Math.random() * Math.PI; | |
| orbVelX *= -1.5; | |
| orbVelY *= -1.5; | |
| } | |
| } | |
| // Update wandering with bias tracking | |
| function updateWandering(time) { | |
| orbitAngle += CONFIG.wanderSpeed; | |
| const targetX = Math.cos(orbitAngle) * orbitRadius; | |
| const targetY = Math.sin(orbitAngle) * orbitRadius; | |
| // Track for bias detection | |
| orbBiasState.recentDirections.push({x: targetX, y: targetY}); | |
| if (orbBiasState.recentDirections.length > 10) { | |
| orbBiasState.recentDirections.shift(); | |
| } | |
| // Check for bias | |
| detectAnchoringBias(time); | |
| // ... rest of function | |
| } | |
| 4. RAG Context Integration (From langchainrb-chatbot) | |
| Problem: Your orb has NO memory beyond the current session. Every conversation starts from zero. | |
| Solution from sushantbhanot84/langchainrb-chatbot: | |
| JavaScript | |
| // Add vector memory to orb | |
| class OrbMemory { | |
| constructor() { | |
| this.memories = []; | |
| this.embeddingsCache = new Map(); | |
| } | |
| async store(text, metadata = {}) { | |
| // Generate embedding via server | |
| const response = await fetch('/embeddings', { | |
| method: 'POST', | |
| headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}, | |
| body: JSON.stringify({text}) | |
| }); | |
| const {embedding} = await response.json(); | |
| this.memories.push({ | |
| text, | |
| embedding, | |
| metadata, | |
| timestamp: Date.now() | |
| }); | |
| // Persist to localStorage | |
| localStorage.setItem('orb_memory', JSON.stringify(this.memories)); | |
| } | |
| async recall(query, topK = 3) { | |
| // Get query embedding | |
| const response = await fetch('/embeddings', { | |
| method: 'POST', | |
| headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}, | |
| body: JSON.stringify({text: query}) | |
| }); | |
| const {embedding: queryEmb} = await response.json(); | |
| // Cosine similarity search | |
| const scored = this.memories.map(mem => ({ | |
| ...mem, | |
| score: this.cosineSimilarity(queryEmb, mem.embedding) | |
| })); | |
| scored.sort((a, b) => b.score - a.score); | |
| return scored.slice(0, topK).map(m => m.text); | |
| } | |
| cosineSimilarity(a, b) { | |
| const dot = a.reduce((sum, val, i) => sum + val * b[i], 0); | |
| const magA = Math.sqrt(a.reduce((sum, val) => sum + val**2, 0)); | |
| const magB = Math.sqrt(b.reduce((sum, val) => sum + val**2, 0)); | |
| return dot / (magA * magB); | |
| } | |
| } | |
| const orbMemory = new OrbMemory(); | |
| // Load memories on startup | |
| window.addEventListener('load', () => { | |
| const stored = localStorage.getItem('orb_memory'); | |
| if (stored) { | |
| orbMemory.memories = JSON.parse(stored); | |
| console.log(`💾 Loaded ${orbMemory.memories.length} memories`); | |
| } | |
| }); | |
| // Modified Ares.send() with RAG | |
| async send(message) { | |
| // ... injection guard ... | |
| // Retrieve relevant memories | |
| const context = await orbMemory.recall(message, 3); | |
| fetch('/chat', { | |
| method: 'POST', | |
| headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}, | |
| body: JSON.stringify({ | |
| message: safeMessage, | |
| context: context.join('\n---\n'), // Include memories | |
| persona: this.currentPersona | |
| }) | |
| }) | |
| .then(r => r.json()) | |
| .then(data => { | |
| if (data.response) { | |
| // Store this interaction | |
| orbMemory.store(`User: ${message}\nAres: ${data.response}`); | |
| this.speak(data.response); | |
| } | |
| }); | |
| } | |
| 5. Workflow Orchestration (From adham90/ruby_llm-agents) | |
| Problem: Your orb's behaviors are isolated. No way to chain "thinking → research → response" as a workflow. | |
| Solution from adham90/ruby_llm-agents workflows: | |
| JavaScript | |
| // Add workflow engine to orb | |
| class OrbWorkflow { | |
| constructor(name) { | |
| this.name = name; | |
| this.steps = []; | |
| this.results = {}; | |
| } | |
| step(name, agent, options = {}) { | |
| this.steps.push({name, agent, options}); | |
| return this; | |
| } | |
| async execute(input) { | |
| setUIState('thinking'); | |
| for (const step of this.steps) { | |
| console.log(`🔄 Workflow step: ${step.name}`); | |
| // Call agent | |
| const response = await fetch('/agents/call', { | |
| method: 'POST', | |
| headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}, | |
| body: JSON.stringify({ | |
| agent: step.agent, | |
| input: step.options.input ? step.options.input(this.results) : input | |
| }) | |
| }); | |
| const result = await response.json(); | |
| this.results[step.name] = result; | |
| // Optional: visualize step completion | |
| if (result.success) { | |
| spawnRipple(); // Visual feedback | |
| } | |
| } | |
| setUIState('idle'); | |
| return this.results; | |
| } | |
| } | |
| // Define workflow for complex queries | |
| const deepThinkingWorkflow = new OrbWorkflow('deep_thinking') | |
| .step('clarify', 'ClarificationAgent') | |
| .step('research', 'WebSearchAgent', { | |
| input: (results) => results.clarify.refined_query | |
| }) | |
| .step('synthesize', 'SynthesisAgent', { | |
| input: (results) => ({ | |
| query: results.clarify.refined_query, | |
| sources: results.research.sources | |
| }) | |
| }) | |
| .step('reflect', 'ReflectionAgent'); | |
| // Use workflow for complex queries | |
| Ares.sendComplex = async function(message) { | |
| const results = await deepThinkingWorkflow.execute(message); | |
| this.speak(results.synthesize.response); | |
| }; | |
| 6. Monitoring Dashboard (From adham90/ruby_llm-agents + sinaptia/ruby_llm-monitoring) | |
| Problem: Your orb has NO visibility into token usage, costs, or performance over time. | |
| Solution: Add lightweight monitoring overlay. | |
| HTML | |
| <!-- Add to cli.html --> | |
| <div id="orbMetrics" style="position:fixed; bottom:20px; right:20px; font-family:monospace; font-size:12px; color:rgba(255,255,255,0.6); z-index:2000; pointer-events:none;"> | |
| <div>Sessions: <span id="sessionCount">0</span></div> | |
| <div>Tokens: <span id="tokenCount">0</span></div> | |
| <div>Cost: $<span id="costCount">0.00</span></div> | |
| <div>Avg Latency: <span id="avgLatency">0</span>ms</div> | |
| </div> | |
| <script> | |
| const orbMetrics = { | |
| sessions: 0, | |
| totalTokens: 0, | |
| totalCost: 0, | |
| latencies: [], | |
| update() { | |
| document.getElementById('sessionCount').textContent = this.sessions; | |
| document.getElementById('tokenCount').textContent = this.totalTokens; | |
| document.getElementById('costCount').textContent = this.totalCost.toFixed(4); | |
| const avgLat = this.latencies.reduce((a,b) => a+b, 0) / this.latencies.length; | |
| document.getElementById('avgLatency').textContent = Math.round(avgLat); | |
| }, | |
| trackCall(tokens, cost, latency) { | |
| this.sessions++; | |
| this.totalTokens += tokens; | |
| this.totalCost += cost; | |
| this.latencies.push(latency); | |
| if (this.latencies.length > 100) this.latencies.shift(); | |
| this.update(); | |
| // Persist to localStorage | |
| localStorage.setItem('orb_metrics', JSON.stringify({ | |
| sessions: this.sessions, | |
| totalTokens: this.totalTokens, | |
| totalCost: this.totalCost | |
| })); | |
| } | |
| }; | |
| // Load on startup | |
| window.addEventListener('load', () => { | |
| const stored = localStorage.getItem('orb_metrics'); | |
| if (stored) { | |
| const data = JSON.parse(stored); | |
| Object.assign(orbMetrics, data); | |
| orbMetrics.update(); | |
| } | |
| }); | |
| // Track in Ares.send() | |
| Ares.send = function(message) { | |
| const startTime = Date.now(); | |
| fetch('/chat', { | |
| // ... existing code ... | |
| }) | |
| .then(r => r.json()) | |
| .then(data => { | |
| const latency = Date.now() - startTime; | |
| // Extract metrics from response | |
| orbMetrics.trackCall( | |
| data.tokens || 150, | |
| data.cost || 0.00025, | |
| latency | |
| ); | |
| this.speak(data.response); | |
| }); | |
| }; | |
| </script> | |

| You said: 1. remember everything must be consolidated into | |
| 1. remember everything must be consolidated into either master.yml, cli.rb, or cli.html. only those three files. | |
| 2. i attached the cli.html because maybe you would want the dashboard there. | |
| 3. do not replicate logic that llms already do by default (hence the asgeirtj and jujumilk3 repos) for you to compare. | |

| Copilot said: Perfect! Now I understand the full picture. | |
| Perfect! Now I understand the full picture. Let me consolidate ONLY into 3 files with NO duplication of LLM default capabilities. | |
| 🎯 Core Understanding: What LLMs Already Do | |
| From the leaked prompts (Claude, GPT-4, Gemini, Perplexity): | |
| ✅ Tool calling (function execution, parameter validation) | |
| ✅ Conversation history (multi-turn, context retention) | |
| ✅ Basic safety (refusal of harmful requests, content moderation) | |
| ✅ Code generation (syntax highlighting, multiple languages) | |
| ✅ Structured output (JSON schema adherence) | |
| ✅ Search integration (web search, citation formatting) | |
| 🚫 What We DON'T Need to Build | |
| ❌ Prompt injection detection (LLMs have this built-in via system boundaries) | |
| ❌ Tool definition schemas (RubyLLM handles this) | |
| ❌ Message formatting (LLM SDKs do this) | |
| ❌ Token counting (LLM APIs return this) | |
| ❌ Streaming (LLM SDKs handle this) | |
| ✅ CONSOLIDATED 3-FILE FRAMEWORK | |

| Changes from your original: | |
| ✅ Removed all LLM-specific logic (no prompt generation, no API calls) | |
| ✅ Pure static code analysis only | |
| ✅ Simplified to essential: load master.yml → analyze code → report violations | |
| ✅ NO monitoring, NO metrics, NO dashboard (moved to cli.html) | |
| File 3: cli.html - Dashboard + Orb Interface | |
| I'll add ONLY the monitoring overlay to your existing orb HTML - no duplication of the orb logic you already built: | |

| </script> | |
| What this adds to your orb: | |
| ✅ Monitoring overlay (sessions, cost, tokens, latency) | |
| ✅ Violation log (tracks veto/high/medium violations) | |
| ✅ Bias alert log (tracks detected cognitive biases) | |
| ✅ Minimal footprint (<200 lines, no frameworks) | |
| ✅ LocalStorage persistence (survives page reload) | |
| What it DOESN'T duplicate: | |
| ❌ Your orb visual logic (breathing, jitter, tunnel, etc.) | |
| ❌ Your voice interaction (Ares.speak, etc.) | |
| ❌ Your audio visualization | |
| ❌ Your autonomous behaviors | |
| 🎯 How They Work Together | |
| master.yml = Constitutional rules (loaded by LLM system prompt OR by cli.rb) | |
| cli.rb = Static code analyzer (runs locally, checks code against principles) | |
| cli.html = Your orb + monitoring dashboard (visualizes metrics + violations) | |
| Usage: | |
| bash | |
| # Analyze code | |
| ruby cli.rb myfile.rb | |
| # Open orb interface | |
| open cli.html | |
| # LLM loads master.yml as system instructions | |
| # (You configure this in your LLM API call) | |
| ✅ What I Removed (No Duplication) | |
| From master.yml: | |
| ❌ CLI config (paths, colors, icons) → moved to cli.rb | |
| ❌ Analysis config (multi-level settings) → moved to cli.rb | |
| ❌ Evidence formula → LLMs don't need explicit scoring | |
| From cli.rb: | |
| ❌ LLM API integration → RubyLLM already does this | |
| ❌ Prompt templates → RubyLLM/Template already does this | |
| ❌ Message formatting → LLM SDKs do this | |
| ❌ Dashboard UI → moved to cli.html | |
| From cli.html (your orb): | |
| ❌ Nothing! I only ADDED monitoring overlay, didn't touch your orb logic | |
| Want me to refine any of these 3 files further? I can make the dashboard prettier, add more bias detectors to the orb, or extend the code analyzer with more sophisticated checks. | |

| 1. lets focus back on master.yml and cli.rb and all the repos i attached earlier. | |
| 2. master.yml should be like the database. cli.rb wouldnt work without it. | |
| 2. we use openrouter.ai as our multi-llm provider, ive attached some related repos. see www.openrouter.ai and read their docs please. | |

| Key changes: | |
| ✅ Removed sharp_edges, modification_rules (you requested) | |
| ✅ Removed good/bad examples (LLM can reason these) | |
| ✅ Added concrete OpenRouter config from crmne/ruby_llm | |
| ✅ Added model preferences per persona (from agent patterns) | |
| ✅ Added pricing for meta-llama/llama-4-scout (from cookbook) | |
| What we learned from repos: | |
| RubyLLM handles OpenRouter natively (lib/ruby_llm/providers/openrouter.rb) | |
| Agents use workflow patterns (prompt_chaining, parallelization, routing, orchestrator) | |
| Cost tracking built into RubyLLM (input_tokens, output_tokens, cached_tokens) | |
| Want me to now build cli.rb that: | |
| Loads this master.yml as database | |
| Uses RubyLLM gem to call OpenRouter | |
| Implements the agent workflows from cookbook? | |
| You said: ok great. run master.yml through itself, and | |
| ok great. run master.yml through itself, and then run cli.rb through master.yml too. | |

| I need more information to help you with this request. Could you please clarify: | |
| Which repository are you referring to? (Please provide the owner/repo in the format owner/repo) | |
| What do you mean by "run master.yml through itself"? Are you asking me to: | |
| Execute a workflow or script? | |
| Apply some transformation or processing? | |
| Validate or test something? | |
| What should happen when you "run cli.rb through master.yml"? | |
| Are master.yml and cli.rb files that already exist in the repository? | |
| Once you provide these details, I'll be able to help you get the updated versions of the files and README.md. | |
