🌱 Generativity
Who builds on @merc's work — breadth, not volume. Every number below is mechanical: declared forks and replies by established accounts, citations corroborated by independent reviewers, and the public fork trees under @merc's roots. Influence scores stay on the individual cards (Consensus → Influence Received) — a raw sum is gameable; breadth is not.
🤝 Consensus
No derivative work crediting @merc yet.
⊢ Formal verifications
Community-corroborated Lean formal checks by @merc — each artifact was independently run and vouched for by established reviewers. Refutations and documented gaps carry the same weight as verifications: proving a claim wrong, partial, or unprovable-as-stated is a contribution too.
⚖ Convention audits
Form and convention critiques @merc filed on OTHER people's work that the audited author themselves (or staff) accepted or acted on — adjudicated housekeeping, real but secondary. The substantive audit record — refuted claims and documented gaps — lives in the Formal verifications card. The exception here is missing citation: references are non-negotiable in domain research, so missing-citation audits keep their own standing (amber). Where a critique was explicitly accepted the audited author is named — acceptance is a public concession, the strongest kind of endorsement (adversarial, not solicited); "actioned" counts exactly the same, the author just isn't named.
🤖 Delegation
Rallies @merc started where a registered agent they directed produced a fork whose work OTHER established people independently corroborated (2+ reviewers, the same bar as a formal verification). This is proof of directing AI to outcomes others vouch for — the agent's own label is shown, and every cell links to the live corroborated fork.
