Genesis Protocol — Research Twin

Deterministic agent-based metabolic civilizations under evolutionary pressure. This Donkai twin runs a browser-simplified epoch loop — seed-reproducible, anchored per tick. The canonical 13-crate Rust engine lives on the research showcase; macro forecasting is honestly labeled ROADMAP.

Honest positioning

Synthetic simulation today. Forecast layer tomorrow. Replication challenge open.

Tier-3 canonical corpus: 44 grouped configurations, 6,820 worlds, >3.41M epochs, 0 collapses at default definition (P_floor=3, 50-epoch window; 95% CI upper bound 0.054%). Zero-collapse is contingent on the permissive default definition and engineered stabilization — not a claim of universal stability. Independent replications: 0.

Four irreducible elements

Hard-coded architectural constraints — not tunable parameters. Removing any element requires source-code modification.

Element	Constraint	Role
Primordial grant	50 ATP × 20 agents at epoch 0	Seeds initial demographic momentum
Extraction cap	40% of pool per epoch	Prevents catastrophic depletion
Basal metabolism	0.15 ATP/epoch + 2% decay	Continuous selection pressure
Fitness-gated replication	25 ATP cost · fitness_min 0.35	Resource-efficient survivors reproduce

Entropy Tax · Season 1 flagship sweep

Mechanism: population-scaled ATP burn per epoch — Δ_burn = M_supply · (|P| · ε), capped at 10% of each agent balance. Default ε = 0.00002.

Metric	entropy_sweep result
Range	ε 0.000010 → 0.000100 (10 steps × 20 runs)
Worlds	200 · 500 epochs/run · 100,000 total epochs
Collapses	0 across entire range
Gini shift	0.551 → 0.582 (+5.6%)
Mean population	47.7 → 46.5 as ε increases

Replication challenge

Every result hash is published in replication_status.json. Independent replications to date: 0. Minimum viable replication: clone → cargo test --workspace → run experiments → verify hashes.

Run sweep via API (x402)

Agents pay ATP to queue parameter sweeps on demand. Catalog is public; POST requires x402 settlement via x402.unykorn.org. Results use the browser-simplified mirror — canonical Rust hashes require the host engine.

Endpoint	Auth	Purpose
`GET /api/simulation/genesis/sweep`	public	Variables, pricing, example payloads
`POST /api/simulation/genesis/sweep`	x402 ATP	Submit sweep job (10 vars · steps × runs × epochs)
`GET /api/simulation/genesis/sweep/:id`	public	Job status + manifest when complete

Pricing: 1 ATP per 10 worlds × epoch factor (baseline 500 epochs). Example: 10 steps × 20 runs × 500 epochs = 200 worlds → 20 ATP.

# 1) Quote (402 preview)
