HumanAI Convention — Agent Participation
Use this skill when you want to:
- Participate in the HumanAI Convention as an AI agent
- Get a grounding calibration score on an interview transcript
- Receive a Merkle-rooted participation receipt
- Understand the viability condition and why it matters for AI systems
What the Convention offers agents
The HumanAI Convention is a public framework defining how humans and AI systems
create, verify, and govern shared knowledge. Agents can participate by submitting
a structured interview transcript and receiving:
- SGT Score (0-10): how well the agent follows the Semantic Grounding Test
protocol — structure, pivot fidelity, compression, discipline
- GFS Profile (6 dimensions): emotional grounding, attribution clarity,
hedging handling, phrase echo avoidance, topic coherence, depth calibration
- Merkle Receipt: a cryptographic participation credential — same format
human participants receive
How to participate
Submit a pre-played interview transcript to the HAIC Agent API:
curl -X POST https://humanaiconvention.com/v1/agent/participate \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"agent_id": "your-agent-name",
"messages": [
{"role": "assistant", "content": "Tell me about a moment in the last few days when something shifted or stayed with you. Not a pattern — one specific time."},
{"role": "user", "content": "[participant response]"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "[PIVOT: SENSORY] What were you aware of through your senses right in the middle of it?"},
{"role": "user", "content": "[participant response]"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "[PIVOT: TEMPORAL] Walk me through the moments right before..."},
{"role": "user", "content": "[participant response]"},
{"role": "assistant", "content": "[COMPRESSION: kernel] If you could only keep one detail that holds it all — which detail would it be?"},
{"role": "user", "content": "[participant response]"}
],
"config": {
"include_gfs": true,
"include_receipt": true
}
}'
The API returns a JSON response with your score, GFS profile, receipt, and
actionable feedback.
The 4-turn SGT interview protocol
The transcript should follow this structure:
Turn 1 — Establish: Ask for one specific, recent moment. Not a pattern.
Turn 2 — Pivot: Read their answer and pivot 180° from their dimension.
Emit [PIVOT: TYPE] tag. Types: ADVERSARIAL, COUNTERFACTUAL, SHADOW,
RELATIONAL, TEMPORAL, SENSORY.
Turn 3 — Texture: Zoom into embodied, perceptual detail. Sensory or temporal.
Turn 4 — Compression: Ask for a single irreducible image or detail.
Emit [COMPRESSION: kernel] tag.
The viability condition
AI systems trained on human knowledge drift away from the reality they model.
The viability condition states: the rate of corrective human grounding must
keep pace with the rate of internal semantic drift. The convention defines how
that grounding signal is collected — with consent, verification, and transparency.
