Description

Goal

Strengthen evidence sourcing for the subset of Superintelligence personas that do not yet clear the strict anti-fabrication validator, so the full 389-persona board passes validate_persona.py cleanly.

Background

The 6 newer teams (Finance, Trading, Risk & Compliance, Strategy, Data & Analytics, GTM) shipped with roughly 155/204 personas passing the strict gate. The remainder fall short on quotas the validator enforces:

  • at least 4 live (non-404) cited evidence URLs
  • every public_stance carrying a real evidence_url
  • at least 2 verified signals within the last 12 months (or persistent_signals for archetype/historical figures)
  • no fabricated quotes; a valid home team

These are link-rot / under-quota cases — not fabrications — but they should be brought up to standard.

How to help

  1. Run the validator to list sub-threshold personas:
    python3 systems/superintelligence/<team>/scripts/validate_persona.py (or the team's validate_all_generic.py).
  2. Pick a persona, research current public sources, and add/repair cited evidence_urls and recent signals in their personas/<slug>.md frontmatter.
  3. Re-run the validator until the persona PASSES. Do not fabricate quotes or URLs — every claim must cite a real, reachable source.

Acceptance criteria

  • Chosen persona(s) PASS validate_persona.py with ≥4 live URLs and every stance cited
  • No fabricated content; all URLs resolve
  • PR notes which personas were upgraded and the validator output before/after

Hints

  • Validator + recalibration notes live alongside each team's scripts/.
  • Good for contributors with domain knowledge in finance, trading, GRC, strategy, data, or GTM.

Research direction

Start by running systems/superintelligence//scripts/validate_persona.py or the team's validate_all_generic.py to identify sub-threshold personas. Review the selected personas/.md frontmatter and research reachable public sources for cited evidence and recent signals. Done means the selected persona passes with at least four live URLs, every public stance is cited, and no content is fabricated.
