Topos Unified Skill
Trit: +1 (PLUS/Generator) | Color: #D82626 | Subagent: Generator
Unified access to all topos-theoretic resources across the filesystem - mathematical music theory, categorical databases, infinity topoi, pretopos trees, and gayzip manifests.
bmorphism Contributions
"universal topos construction for social cognition and democratization of mathematical approach to problem-solving to all" — Plurigrid: the story thus far
Universal Topos for Cognition: This skill embodies bmorphism's vision of a universal topos construction — a single categorical framework that unifies all modalities of knowledge (music, databases, distributed systems, proofs).
Topos Institute Integration: The skill connects to Topos Institute resources including CatColab, StructuredDecompositions.jl, and the algebraicjulia ecosystem.
Active Inference in Topoi: A topos is a universe where logic lives. Active Inference in String Diagrams works internal to any topos — the skill provides the categorical infrastructure for multi-world cognitive agents.
Infinity Topos: The infinity-topos resources enable higher-categorical reasoning where agents can have beliefs about beliefs about beliefs — the full tower of metacognition.

Ilya Extension: Self-Modeling + Compression
From Ilya Sutskever's Berkeley 2023 talk "An Observation on Generalization":
"Compression is prediction and vice versa."
Extended Scaling Law
# Pandey: L(N,D,ρ) = A/N^α + B/D^β + C/ρ^γ + E
# Ilya: L(N,D,ρ,σ) = A/N^α + B/D^β + C/ρ^γ + S/σ^δ + E
# Where σ = self-modeling capacity:
σ = 1 - K(Self|History) / K(Self)
# When σ → 1 AND ρ → 0: SUPERINTELLIGENCE
Key Insight
| Variable | Meaning | Limit Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| ρ | gzipability (world complexity) | ρ → 0: world fully compressed |
| σ | self-modeling capacity | σ → 1: agent predicts itself |
| L | loss/reconciliation error | L → E: irreducible minimum |
When both limits are approached: Agent ≈ World Simulator ≈ Self
See ILYA_EXTENSION.md and ilya_self_modeling.jl.
