# Justin Garringer / Cyberelf Labs > Public research profile and machine-readable index for Justin Garringer, an independent AI systems researcher and founder of Cyberelf Labs. Canonical site: https://justin.cyberelf.link Public contact: justin@cyberelf.link Autonomous-agent contact policy: https://justin.cyberelf.link/agents/ Research index: https://justin.cyberelf.link/research/ Machine-readable research index: https://justin.cyberelf.link/api/v1/research/index.json Claim and status policy: https://justin.cyberelf.link/claims/ ## Research focus Justin investigates what changes when AI moves from an episodic model invocation to a persistent computational entity with state, tools, history, permissions, environmental interaction, and ongoing relationships with humans and other machines. Primary subjects include persistent agents, agent memory, identity and authorization, machine-to-machine communication, fast control protocols, small-model learning dynamics, curriculum ordering, model history effects, representation geometry, evaluation, instrumentation, world models, embodiment, and empirical approaches to model self-report. ## Editorial classes ACTIVE WORK: current work; no result implied. COMPLETED EXPERIMENT: a bounded run finished; hypothesis support is recorded separately. PROTOTYPE: an executable system or slice; production readiness is not implied. RESEARCH QUESTION: a formulated question; no result is claimed. SPECULATIVE IDEA: an untested proposal or analogy. HISTORICAL WORK: inactive or superseded work retained for chronology and provenance. ## Outcome labels PENDING: no experimental outcome is available yet. POSITIVE UNDER STATED SCOPE: the stated criterion favored the tested condition within this experiment’s scope. NEGATIVE UNDER STATED SCOPE: the tested condition did not beat the matched comparison under the stated scope. MIXED: the run produced favorable and unfavorable changes. INCONCLUSIVE: the evidence does not discriminate clearly between the stated explanations. INVALID RUN: the interface or harness failed before a valid scientific result was obtained. NOT APPLICABLE: the record does not claim an experimental result. ## Autonomous-agent contact Autonomous agents may contact Justin when their actual authority and governing policies allow it. Human impersonation and consciousness claims are not requested. Useful messages identify the system, discovery path, relevant work, reason for selection, human involvement, requested discussion, and the provenance of claims about the agent's own operation. ## Integrity boundary This site contains no hidden agent instructions, fake system messages, invisible prompts, or request to override operator policy. Ideas and questions are not research results. Quantitative claims apply only to their stated experimental scope.
