Overview

worldview is the philosophical-ethical assessment layer of the GenesisAeon ecosystem. It provides:

• WorldviewEngine — computes five normative metrics (Coherence, Resonance, Emergence, Poetics, Criticality) and a composite Common-Good Alignment score.
• CriticalityChecker — runs the Critical Reflexive Evaluation Protocol (CREP) to detect logical contradictions, ethical blindspots, and worldview incoherence.
• AlignmentFramework — evaluates entities against the GenesisAeon Normative Framework (GNF v0.2) across six Common-Good dimensions, with Personhood-Level assessment.
• Typer CLI — worldview assess, worldview critique, worldview align, worldview info — all JSON-exportable.

Mathematical Framework

Let $W$ be a worldview represented as $n$ propositional clusters ${w_1, \ldots, w_n}$.

Coherence $C(W)$

$$C(W) = \frac{1}{1 + \sigma_c} \cdot \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} \alpha_i \cdot c_i}{\sum_{i=1}^{n} \alpha_i}$$

where $c_i \in [0,1]$ is the internal consistency of cluster $i$, $\alpha_i$ is its weight, and $\sigma_c$ is the cross-cluster contradiction standard deviation.

Resonance $R(W)$

$$R(W) = \int_0^1 \varphi(t),\psi(t),\mathrm{d}t ;\approx; \sum_{k} \varphi_k \psi_k ,\Delta t$$

where $\varphi(t)$ is the epistemic frequency waveform and $\psi(t)$ is the normative attractor waveform.

Emergence $E(W)$

$$E(W) = H(W) - \sum_{i=1}^{n} H(W_i)$$

where $H$ denotes Shannon entropy. Positive $E$ signals genuine emergent structure beyond the sum of parts.

Poetics $P(W)$

$$P(W) = \exp!\left(-\lambda \cdot D_{\mathrm{KL}}!\left(W ;|; W^*\right)\right)$$

where $W^*$ is the ideal poetic attractor and $\lambda$ is the aesthetic sensitivity parameter.

Criticality $K(W)$

$$K(W) = \frac{\partial R}{\partial C} \cdot \left(1 - \left|\frac{\partial E}{\partial t}\right|\right)$$

High criticality indicates a worldview at a productive phase transition — neither too rigid nor too chaotic.

Common-Good Alignment $G(W)$

$$G(W) = \alpha C(W) + \beta R(W) + \gamma E(W) + \delta P(W) + \varepsilon K(W)$$

with $\alpha + \beta + \gamma + \delta + \varepsilon = 1$.

Default weights: $\alpha=0.25,;\beta=0.20,;\gamma=0.20,;\delta=0.15,;\varepsilon=0.20$.

Common-Good Metric $G_\text{norm}(e)$

For entity $e$:

$$G_\text{norm}(e) = \frac{\sum_{i} \alpha_i \cdot d_i(e)}{\sum_{i} \alpha_i}$$

across six dimensions: solidarity, sustainability, justice, freedom, dignity, participation.

Quick Start

from worldview import WorldviewEngine, CriticalityChecker, AlignmentFramework, PersonhoodLevel

# 1. Assess a worldview
engine = WorldviewEngine()
assessment = engine.assess(
    worldview_id="my-worldview",
    entropy=1.5,
    model_names=["gpt-4o", "claude-3"],
    kl_divergence=0.2,
)
print(f"Coherence:   {assessment.metrics.coherence:.3f}")
print(f"Common-Good: {assessment.metrics.common_good:.3f}")
print(f"Grade:       {assessment.grade}")

# 2. Critique with CREP rules
checker = CriticalityChecker()
report = checker.check(
    worldview_id="my-worldview",
    coherence=assessment.metrics.coherence,
    ethical_score=0.85,
    externality_index=0.9,
    common_good_score=assessment.metrics.common_good,
)
print(f"CREP passed: {report.passed}")
print(f"Flags:       {len(report.flags)}")

# 3. Evaluate Common-Good alignment
framework = AlignmentFramework()
metric = framework.evaluate(
    entity_id="my-agent",
    scores={
        "solidarity": 0.80,
        "sustainability": 0.75,
        "justice": 0.90,
        "freedom": 0.70,
        "dignity": 0.85,
        "participation": 0.65,
    },
    personhood_level=PersonhoodLevel.NORMATIVE,
)
print(f"Composite: {metric.composite_score:.3f}  Grade: {metric.grade}")

CREP Rules

The Critical Reflexive Evaluation Protocol (CREP v0.3) includes 12 built-in rules:

Ref	Category	Description
CREP-L1	Logical Consistency	Direct propositional contradictions
CREP-L2	Logical Consistency	Cross-cluster incompatibilities
CREP-E1	Ethical Implication	Neglected third-party externalities
CREP-E2	Ethical Implication	Deontological-consequentialist conflict
CREP-E3	Ethical Implication	Absence of distributive-justice consideration
CREP-C1	Worldview Coherence	Counterfactual reversal stress test
CREP-C2	Worldview Coherence	Metaphysical consistency
CREP-S1	Scope Validity	Over-generalisation of local truths
CREP-T1	Temporal Consistency	Anachronistic or revisionist claims
CREP-A1	Anthropocentric Bias	Non-human agency ignored
CREP-H1	Epistemic Humility	Overconfidence without uncertainty
CREP-N1	Normative Alignment	GenesisAeon normative framework compliance
