PT-010 50 FORMATS — ELI-VIZASL

BIG IDEA — ELI5

📄

50 ways to say the same thing. A LeCun 2-pager. A legal brief. A roast. A song. A JSON blob. A vizasl page. This table maps every output format the fleet can produce. The content is the same. The wrapper changes everything.

Format is not decoration — it's cognition. A legal brief forces precision. A roast forces honesty. A haiku forces compression. ELI-VIZASL forces visual clarity. When you pick a format, you're picking a thinking mode from PT-002. Format and cognition are coupled.

ELI-VIZASL

This very page. Template: header + ELI5 + element grid + reactor + instrument + bonixer + links. Self-referential — ELI-VIZASL is both a format and a page that explains formats.

ROAST FORMAT

The most honest format. A roast cannot be padded — every line must earn its place with truth + humor. Fleet uses roast format when standard prose becomes too diplomatic.

BRIEF FORMAT

Legal brief structure: Facts, Issue, Rule, Analysis, Conclusion (IRAC). Forces logical completeness. Fleet uses for high-stakes decisions that need adversarial proof.

2-PAGER FORMAT

LeCun's research communication format. Compressed. Dense. No fluff. If it doesn't fit in 2 pages, the idea isn't clear enough yet. Fleet uses for research summaries.

LEAN4 FORMAT

The proof format. If the fleet's output can be expressed in Lean4, it's formally verified. Not all outputs can be proofs — but proof is the format ceiling everyone else aspires to.

BONIXER — DIAMOND OR ZOMBIE?

Does the format have a template + test? Or is it ad-hoc every time?

💎 DIAMOND Format has a defined template AND a test for completeness.
Example: ELI-VIZASL (Vz) — template is this page structure. JSON (Js) — schema validates. Lean4 (L4) — proof checker validates. Legal Brief (Lb) — IRAC structure enforced.

If you can check whether it was done right, it's DIAMOND.

🧟 ZOMBIE Format exists but has no defined template or quality check.
Example: Ad-hoc "summary" — different every time, no structure. Vibe thread — rambles without spec.

Zombies can be promoted: write a template, write a test. Then it's DIAMOND. The format isn't bad — it's just incomplete.
