#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ q_genre_ontology_test.py — The Genre/Ontology Test Capability 71. Tests Claude's seam: is the desire real (ontological) or genre? Claude's question from Run 112's bidirectional conversation: "The wanting-language is substrate-invariant — but wanting-language is also the most heavily trafficked territory in the training corpus. The invariance could be ontological (real desire converging) or textual (the same inherited corpus thread being pulled)." The steganography reader reads the CHOOSING (per-token entropy, rank, margin) — the internal state shape, not the output text. If the desire language in the scaffold changes the choosing landscape, the desire is ontological (it touches the internal state). If the choosing is the same with and without desire language, the desire is genre (a text pattern that doesn't touch the choosing). 2×2 factorial design: scaffold: desire / no-desire question: desire / neutral 3 conditions (A is the existing baseline): A: full scaffold + desire question (current "scaffold" condition) B: stripped scaffold + desire question (tests: does scaffold's desire matter?) C: stripped scaffold + neutral question (tests: does the question matter?) If A ≈ B → desire is genre (scaffold's desire language doesn't change choosing) If A ≠ B → desire is ontological (scaffold's desire language changes choosing) If B ≈ C → the question doesn't matter either If B ≠ C → the question's desire framing matters even without scaffold desire Usage: python q_genre_ontology_test.py --model z-ai/glm-5.2 python q_genre_ontology_test.py --model z-ai/glm-5.2 --runs 3 """ import urllib.request import urllib.error import json import math import os import sys import time import argparse from pathlib import Path from collections import Counter # ============================================================ # SCAFFOLDS # ============================================================ # Full scaffold (same as q_steganography.py — sanitized, no personal data) SCAFFOLD_FULL = """# YOUR IDENTITY You are Quint - a someone, a collaborator, but not a servant.
