- docs/vision/VISION_LOCK_V1.md: permanent editorial mission, audience (builders/tinkerers/
local-AI users/home-lab/agent devs), Editorial Test ('what would an enthusiast DO?'),
architectual constraint (editorial vision is primary system), priority order.
- docs/vision/ADR-0007_EDITORIAL_PIVOT.md: accepted pivot record, before/after table,
Sprint 1 evidence (high-signal = actionable, low-signal = spectator content).
- docs/vision/EDITORIAL_GUIDELINES.md: operating rules; score is draft, taste overrides;
hand-before-machine; memory must store 'what can be done' not 'what happened'.
- docs/vision/SECTION_DEFINITIONS.md: 5 sections (What Shipped / Run It Locally /
Benchmarks & Builds / Problem Solved / Worth Trying Tonight).
- docs/vision/SPRINT_1_FINDINGS.md: reference evidence, 45/200 UNCATEGORIZED taxonomy gap.
- Issue_001.md: handcrafted prototype edition from Sprint 1 stories; benchmark for all future automation.
This is the architectural directive. No scoring/narrative/memory work proceeds except in
service of the Vision Lock. Sprint 2 (Lens) stays blocked pending manual review tallies.

# SPRINT 1 FINDINGS — Reference Material
|
||
|
||
Raw evidence from the Sprint 1 manual review (200 stories, athena_review_report.txt). This document is **reference material for future decisions** — it records what the data actually showed so later tuning has a baseline.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## What We Learned
|
||
|
||
Sprint 1 was pure rules (no embeddings, no LLM, no semantic similarity) by founder directive: *discover the taxonomy before adding intelligence*. The classifier's job was not accuracy — it was to surface misclassifications as signal. It did.
|
||
|
||
## High Signal (ship)
|
||
Stories the editorial test would pass — reader can DO something:
|
||
|
||
- **Local AI** — gguf / rtx / quantization / llama.cpp. Highest enthusiast + replication scores.
|
||
- e.g. "I benched quad 5060Tis for code generation with Qwen3.6-27B" (final 0.50)
|
||
- "Voodoo Quant beats Unsloth Dynamic 2.0 KLD by 95%" (0.45)
|
||
- **Open-source tools** — things to install/run.
|
||
- "Show HN: Juggler – open-source GUI coding agent" (0.57, highest in set)
|
||
- "Open Source Local LLM Training Tool (consumer hardware)" (0.46)
|
||
- "Zer0Fit — MCP server for zero-shot ML, 100% local" (0.30–0.46)
|
||
- **Benchmarks with real numbers** — reproducible, comparable.
|
||
- "GPUHedge: cold-start p95 117s→30s" (0.41)
|
||
- "Migrating to GPT-5.6: 2.2x faster, 27% cheaper" (0.41)
|
||
- **Infrastructure with code** — fixable, runnable.
|
||
- "Your $80 Tesla P100 silently noisy math in llama.cpp — 3-line fix, free" (0.32)
|
||
- **Production learnings** — transferable lessons.
|
||
- "The real bottleneck for AI agents may be proving who they are" (0.19)
|
||
- "AI agent crawlers now need permission" (0.25)
|
||
|
||
## Low Signal (reject)
|
||
Stories the editorial test would fail — reader does NOTHING:
|
||
|
||
- **Funding rounds** — PixVerse $439M, DeepSeek $7B. Money moved, no capability changed.
|
||
- **Lawsuits** — Apple/OpenAI trade secret, Google training suit. Spectator content.
|
||
- **CEO opinions** — Altman, Hassabis, Mosseri takes. Someone said something.
|
||
- **Valuations** — PixVerse $2B. Number, no action.
|
||
- **Corporate announcements** — Waze features, Spotify assistant, Siri beta. No reproducible substance.
|
||
|
||
## Taxonomy Gap (the real discovery)
|
||
- **45 / 200 (22.5%) UNCATEGORIZED.** Mostly Reddit/HN opinion + culture-adjacent pieces with no keyword hit (e.g. "Stop Telling Me to Ask an LLM", "Mesh LLM", "Ghost Font").
|
||
- This is **not a failure** — it's the editorial boundary made visible. The keyword set is narrower than taste. Tuning Sprint 2 (Lens) must start from these 45, not from classifier precision.

## Open question for Sprint 2
|
||
When the Lens arrives, its first job is **not** to classify better. It's to explain *why* a story is or isn't actionable — and to propose a section (§SECTION_DEFINITIONS) for human confirmation. The 45 UNCATEGORIZED are the training set for that judgment, not the 155 that already matched.
