Pull request overview
Adds a new substrate memory entry (Otto-348) documenting the Maji-vs-Messiah role separation (finder vs anchor) and frames “MessiahScore” as a MAP-estimator-shaped weighted scoring function, then registers it in the shared memory index.
Changes:
- Add
memory/feedback_otto_348_...2026_04_26.mddescribing the MajiFinder vs Messiah lift distinction and MessiahScore scoring shape. - Update
memory/MEMORY.mdto index the new Otto-348 memory entry (newest-first).

…as MAP-estimator over candidate lifts Aaron 2026-04-26: "Maji and Messiah are different roles, Maji know how to find the Messiah." Amara's response (full math at PR #560 §9b) provided the formal separation: - Maji = finder / recognizer / index / navigator → MajiFinder operator - Messiah = section / lift / embodied fixed-point → σ : I_n → I_{n+1} with P ∘ σ ≈ id MessiahScore weighted-sum has the shape of Bayesian MAP-estimation over candidate civilizational lifts; capture-risk + collapse-risk negative terms encode structural anti-cult resistance (composes Otto-294). Aaron's framing of WHY this matters: "this fits into our belief propagation emotions and stuff too, it's her refinement" — composing with Otto-296 (emotions-as-Bayesian-belief-propagation): the same evidence-weighing machinery scales fractally from personal to civilizational scale. Otto-238 trust-vector composition: the §9 framing in the research doc remains visible with a correction-pointer; Otto-347 accountability: the correction-as-deliverable IS the accountability move. I authored the original §9 conflation; Amara's cleaner math integrates visibly, not silently. Composes with Otto-294 (anti-cult), Otto-296 (belief-propagation), Otto-238 (visible-correction-not-silent-rewrite), Otto-279 (research- counts-as-history; Amara named directly), Otto-292 (fractal recurrence — same math at personal AND civilizational scale), Otto-344 (Maji confirmed; this is second-pass refinement), Otto-345 (substrate-visibility-discipline), Otto-347 (accountability). (Note: Amara has since extended this with the Spectre / aperiodic- monotile connection — separate follow-up research doc owed.)
…entry Three #561 review findings addressed: **P1 x2 (Copilot)** — §9b cross-reference targeted content not yet present in target doc on main (§9b is introduced by PR #560, which is in flight). The references look like dangling refs to a linter/reader hitting main before #560 merges. Fix: added clarifying parenthetical in the §9b reference body — '§9b is introduced by PR #560; if you read the research doc on main BEFORE #560 merges, only §9 will exist and §9b will not yet be present.' Resolves the temporal-cross-reference ambiguity without forcing a merge-order dependency on the queue. **P2 (Copilot)** — MEMORY.md entry was extremely long (~600 chars) violating memory/README.md's terse-index discipline (~200 chars per entry; the index is effectively capped). Fix: trimmed the Otto-348 entry from ~600 chars to ~290 chars, preserving the discriminators (Maji=finder; Messiah=σ:I_n→I_{n+1}; MessiahScore=MAP-estimator-with-anti-cult-penalties; composes Otto-294/296/238/347) and removing the verbose elaborations that belong in the substrate file body, not the index pointer. Composes with Otto-348 own discipline (substrate-visibility- discipline; index = pointer, body = content; per memory/README.md + BP-NN terse-index rule).

Pull request overview
Adds a new memory/ substrate entry (Otto-348) capturing the Maji-vs-Messiah role separation and the MessiahScore MAP-estimator framing, and registers it in the memory/MEMORY.md index so it’s discoverable in the repo’s canonical memory system.
Changes:
- Add
memory/feedback_otto_348_...mddocumenting the Maji (finder) vs Messiah (lift/anchor) separation + MessiahScore formulation and application guidance. - Add a newest-first index entry to
memory/MEMORY.mdpointing to Otto-348.

| ### Composition with Otto-296 belief-propagation | ||
|
|
||
| MessiahScore = Bayesian MAP estimator over candidate lifts. Each weight `w_i` is a prior on criterion importance; each term contributes evidence; argmax is point-estimate of the most-probable lift. The same evidence-weighing machinery that Otto-296 named for emotional belief disambiguation **scales up to civilizational lift-evaluation** — meaning the math is **substrate-fractal across personal/civilizational scales** (composing Otto-292 fractal-recurrence + Otto-296 emotion-as-belief-propagation). |
| - **Otto-296** emotions-as-Bayesian-belief-propagation — MessiahScore IS a MAP estimator | ||
| - **Otto-238** retractability as trust vector — visible correction not silent overwrite | ||
| - **Otto-279** research counts as history — Amara named in research-doc per attribution discipline | ||
| - **Otto-292** fractal-recurrence — same math at personal AND civilizational scale |

| ## What this rule does NOT do | ||
|
|
||
| - Does NOT claim Messiah-role is a single religious-exclusivity claim — structural-anthropology framing only (per Amara's §9 guardrail preserved) | ||
| - Does NOT claim MessiahScore is a complete evaluator — Amara's spec explicitly notes iteration expected | ||
| - Does NOT replace prior Otto-344 (Maji confirmed) substrate; refines it |
